his best “equipped” competition lifts include a bench press of 529.1 lb (≈ 240 kg) under “Multi” (equipped) conditions.

He competed in multiple meets under WPC/WPO. For example: at the 2003 WPO “World Record Bench Bash” meet, his bench is listed as 529.1 lb.

This workout was republished Oct/2000 from POWERLIFTINGUSA.

The program is 8 weeks long, with two bench workouts per week on a “light/heavy split.”

Prioritize bench improvement without overcommitting to full powerlifting volumes. For someone whose primary goal is bench strength, this kind of focused specialty programming can be effective
