Jacob Kaziska, 14 years old, attempts a 225 lb. bench press at the Beast of the Northeast powerlifting competition in Bradford, PA. This is his 2nd of 3 attempts. He ended up winning his age division and taking 3rd in the overall Men's open. This was on March 10, 2007.
For those who can't add:
bar weighs 45 lbs.
two 45 lb. plates = 90 lbs.
two 35 lbs. plates 70 lbs.
two 10 lb. solid steel/heavy duty end locks = 20 lbs.
Last I checked: 45+90+70+20 = 225
So, anybody posting things questioning my honesty regarding the weight of this bar will be deleted, because I'm tired of explaining it. thanks!
