Mark Matthews - 500 pound bench @ 20 years old

[gametocken]

Half the people who watched this vid were looking for lacrosse player mark Mathews

[sikguystg]

hahaha holy shit i though this was mark matthews the lacrosse player at first i was like wtf hes fuckin huge

[tkotan]

thats alot for your age and weight! one guy does it at my gym but he weighs 325 and been liftin for 14 years.  good job!

[BigGee614]

nice job for the spotter, good thing he saw you had it

[dallaspowerlifter]

nice bro, that way to man-handle 500 on bench. Do you train westside barbell?

[SmexyPC]

h o l y s h i t

[DRUMROCKER236]

childs play.



[zts99]

pretty okay, I have a friend though who isn't on steroids and can do this, plus he looks better.

[ryanesp1000]

dang... is that the santa clarita athletic club?

[konk2k]

He is probably really short



[SeriousmaximSH]

congrats u can count C:

[jethrobodine011]

fucking power lifters LOOK RETARDED!!! You look like your bloated/constipated.

[rdzilla]

This is a hell of a good lift. Keep up the good work.

[cornnellify]

this may sound weird but i think his size is more impressive than the 500lbs

[Goincrazy1215]

What's more impressive is of u can pause it.... Props on the push. What's your weight ?

[SmexyPC]

@ 0:17 it lookd like u were like "shit i shouldnt have thrown it" lmao

[BassBitz]

Man that smile on his face afterward, hes got the feelin that he just lifted what he felt to be an incredible amount of weight! I have had the feeling too, it just wasn't anywhere near 500 lbs....

[210Steel1]

this is the only video I've seen where grunting actually looks like it helps lol very nice lift!

[OCCFan023]

Damn man impressive. You know hes got skill when at 0:33 he kinda got stuck on his right side but then just beasted it out. Props man

[muzimuzi]

do you have compettion videos?

[BassInMyFace1]

Massive lift fairplay

[bigvin11585]

Bulky and sloppy fat

[demathastags13]

omg best lift i seen on youtube but on the ground and everything it didnt look like you would get it but its like you had another gear. how much do you weigh

[luciphoenix]

how did you get those arms? jesus christ. great lift dude. what is your routine?

[Standinthefarq]

Awesome!

[ipowerlifter101]

strong as fuck.

[Akwasiman]

imagine if this guy wasn't such a hobbit and had normal or long arms if hes tall he wouldn't be able to do 400 lol short people have it so easy

[TimpBizkit]

What was I benching at age 19? Around 100lbs one rep max I think. I remember doing a couple of reps with a 20kg bar and a 10kg on each end and I was shaking in that post workout way!! This was my first time benching. Now I'm 22 and bench 140, but I only do it occasionally otherwise yes +40lbs in 3 years is shit!!

[srx700max]

STROOOOONG damn thats some BIG BOY weight right there BEAST

[Gambuilt43]

Solid man...how heavy are you?

[markmatthewsjr]

@Gambuilt43 when i did this i was 189 lbs

[TheBrandonBurkey]

look like that hurt...

[jonathankaitazoff]

thumbs up for 0:06 when camera man says "21" haha i thought he say one month after turning 20.. O_o

[markmatthewsjr]

@jonathankaitazoff yeah haha that would be the fault of my dad, I was technically 20 years old he was just rounding up

[jonathankaitazoff]

@markmatthewsjr anyways 20 0r 21, its amazing. 500lbs! damn man. i wish i could do that. check my video, my bench looks small next to yours! nice job. how much are you benching now?

[jonathankaitazoff]

perfect ift! i also have your age (im 19 but in october i turn 20) im powerlifter, check out my bench press. im far away from 500!!

[jjor4lyfe]

dude that was sick, nice job. @tolmbyf0u wtf are you talking about lol, the kid's a power lifter not a fitness model. i'd like to see a men's fitness cover model bench 4 plates, let alone 5!!

[markmatthewsjr]

@jjor4lyfe haha thank you man, i appreciate it. I'm not a fit model 'm a straight powerlifter, although i am currently training for my first bodybuiding show

[bigbruin2011]

proper form too. beast.

[MrHellsAngel666]

funny how the camera ma says "21" ... smfh

[EKmion]

that was a good bench press it was just funny when you where like duuuuuuuueeeeeeeerrrrrrhh duuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeerrrrrrrhhh­hh

[tolmbyf0u]

thats some good shit, a lil fat tho, but who gives a shit?

[AndyAngelZ]

looks like the drummer for "Panic at the Disco" but HUGE

[JJNYBOSS2]

nice!

[lardbake]

he would comp press maybe 450, he slams that 500 into his chest

[ScatMan103]

nice lift. doesn't really look like you push with your feet. I bet if you did you could add another 30 pounds to that. Could be wrong though but I normally put my feed really wide.

[markmatthewsjr]

@ScatMan103 Thank you for the advice, i appreciate it. I actually did push with my feet, but i've always been trying to bring my legs more into it

[LGLG69]

That's impressive, but you look bigger than 200lbs. How tall are you?

[markmatthewsjr]

@LGLG69 i'm 5'7

[TheYoungShot]

good job mark
