Very nice InControl, has he ever been a strongman or wanted to be? Just curious.

i loved the bench pressing, btw anyone know what incontrol takes, supplemental wise?
also to everyone who calls him fat, i say this, last years worlds strongest man weighed in at 375 lbs, and not a single competator weighs less than that, and none of them have the build of a bodybuilder. i would like to know how much INC weighs for comparative purposes, since last years winner benches less than double his body weight.



The world's strongest men are fat. They are strong, but they are fat too. What is so hard to understand? 25% bodyfat is considered obese... Doesn't matter how much muscle you have. obese is obese.

...and that's why BMI is silly.


BMI is for classifying individuals with a sedentary lifestyle. It wouldn't make much sense to apply it to powerlifters. They would all be considered obese.

Couldn't manage to press Machine into the title, there wasn't an adequate amount of space, sorry
I'll edit the post instead <3

I was shocked to see Idra actually get 205 though, he can easily go up to. Looks like I need to get back to the gym.


I don't think the person tabulating the weights can count right.

By that video, Idra's got two 45-lb plates and two 30 lb plates. So unless that's a 55 lb bar, I can't tell how accurate those numbers are. Not saying as a hater, just as someone who's worked as a personal trainer...


You're lack of knowledge when it comes to the bench press makes me wonder whether you have any credibility as someone whose worked as a personal trainer. Or maybe you worked as a personal trainer in the cardio room or yoga room?

Typically weights come in 45, 35, 25lbs. The bar is 45 lbs. This is pretty common knowledge for anyone whose remotely tried the bench press. Therefore, 2 45 pound plates + 2 35lb plates + a 45 pound bar = 205lbs.

Not only does it sound like you're a hater but it doesn't sound like you've worked as a personal trainer at all.

I believe Incontrol has said that he used to do strongman competitions. It would be ignorant to just call it fat.



this is a great image. I told one of my roomates I train for olympic lifting and he said "oh my dad did the music for one of those competitions, those guys are insane when they oil up blah blah blah bodybuilding". I nearly strangled him, but politely corrected him. He was 5'5, 110lbs, and an exercise science major who didn't exercise.

Anyway, Incontrol has some legit strength, but I hope he's not wussing out on squat/dl. Doesn't look like it just from a visual check :D.

the last sentence is wrong! incontrol would never fight his own kind :p
If you think it's too hard there are solutions other than asking for a nerf, getting better is the first that comes to mind.

Didn't Geoff say at one point he could bench 600 pounds?

Also Idras bulked up quite a bit. Impressive.

IdraIdraIdraaaaa gotta touch the chest and go all the way down buddy. I was pretty skeptical when I read I could only do 10 more than he can. I'd say his max is probably closer to 185/190

Incontrol though O.O jebus
