Brandon Snowder - 29 years old
242 Weight Class - Men's Open - Raw Bench Only
Actual weigh in body weight was - 228 pounds!
Brandon has not competed in almost a year. The reason? He wanted to totally focus on benching 500 pounds raw. He has put in the work to do so too.
Brandon's best raw bench presses in competetion by wt class:
452 pounds at 198 - (bench only meet)
475 pounds at 220 - (done in a full power raw meet)
501.5 pounds at 242 - (bench only meet)
Benching 500 pounds raw is well, kind of a really big deal. It is a very exclusive club and Its not every day that you see someone who can acutally bench that much raw and do it when it matters. In a meet. With judges. With a pause.
I can not explain how proud I am of you my brother. Welcome to the 500 pounds club! Your hardwork has paid off and now its time to go after that 535 raw bench press! Awesome meet Brandon. I am proud to call you my friend, teammate and my family!
