Biomechanics play a tremendous role here.
So does your skeletal structure.
Mgs of gear don't mean anything when it comes to strength in that regard. Sure powerlifters take strong stuff leading up to a meet (some dont), but that has more to do with CNS involvement than gaining pure strength.
Larry Wheels has posted taking 500 mgs of test and 300 mgs of deca a week while benching 600+ lbs (yeah yeah, he's a liar, takes 6 grams minimum and we are all suckers [emoji3]). None of that has anything to do with gear; kid was stupid strong at 16, and is built for that.
Like BL stated; it's progression. Day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year, decade after decade.

He was also taking 150mg/day of anadrol which is quite a lot for strength. He's also admitted to doing far heavier cycles throughout the bulk of his career. It was something like 1.2g test, 500 tren e, halo, dbol, and superdrol all at the same time. So I believe that yeah, he probably did bench 600 on relatively low doses; but he wouldn't have been able to build that amount of lean tissue required for the 600lb bench if he hadn't been blasting huge doses earlier in his career.
