one guy i train with weighs about 83kg, doesnt eat properly or take supps etc, user bit aas on occasion, but he can do 160kg x 2 raw on bench, DL 230 and squat around 220kg.
Has tried my bench suit on, was loose on him but goy 180kg out....

Have to watch him, keep him down a bit else he could over take me lol

But might get him intio powerlifting, trouble is he not dedicated or reliable just wants to look good in tight top

waste really
