""I probably have shorter arms so I don't have to move the bar quite as far as he does. I probably bench 230ish ... 240 for one. I'm sure Tiger's up around the 300 mark.""

Yeah.... maybe on a Hammer strength machine...

I forget what movie it was but these guys are in a bar talking about golfers ect when one guy says"Tiger benches damn near 300lbs"I googled this under movie quotes and nothing came up but I remember it just cant think of name

 

[Queefer]

I believe it ..tiger is an amzingly gifted athlete

Are those numbers unbelievable to you? For an athlete training to get stronger not hypertrophy those are very reachable numbers.

Then there's a guy like Bubba Watson who looks like he's never been inside a gym in his life and has legitimately about 12" arms and hits it even farther than both of them. lol

That would be exit wounds lol, you can thank my eidetic memory!

I would be willing to bet that Tiger could bench 300 pounds. Its not a ton of weight and he is in good shape for a golfer.

Tiger bench 300 pounds?! Are you guys serious? No F$cking way..

First I doubt he even has the strength and second Tiger has so many back issues I doubt he could even bench 225

Both are very fit,,physical athletes. Those numbers are realistic.

If they lift like the guys at the gym I go to then I believe it, I don't know who gets the most workout the guy benching or the spotter that is lifting the weight every rep but says he never helped.

 

[wizim]

who cares what they can bench. both great athletes....considering their sport.

 

[mytreefiddy]

I don't think anybody is disputing they both are great athletes..... I just don't think he can bench 300lbs... benching can really interfere with a fluid golf swing so I doubt they even train chest....

 

[em3rgency]

golfer's benching 300. sure its possible. is it likely? no

there are people out there that are strong as fuck even though they dont look stong as fuck.
there are people out there that look strong as fuck but are pansies when it comes to moving weight.
i prefer to look and be strong as fuck.

Amen brother... but I don't mind having over a triple bodyweight squat

 

[REDDOGG1]

Tiger in his day I think could of bench 300 but not so much now.

I read that long ago and Beleive it. 300 is an easy number for some. I knew this frat kid that all he did was party and do drugs. Lol Well he was a friend of a freind. He was about 6 2 average build not fat not lean just real regular looking. I seen him bench 315 with a pretty damn narrow grip to.

You guys are so sheltered. I have two half brothers. They came to my house one time and wanted to see my Gym. We have the same mom, but different dad. Those boys have done limited weight lifting in their day. Quite honestly, they spend the majority of their time smoking weed. Both benched 225 easily for several reps. 300 would be easily attained. Neither of them weigh more than 200 pounds. Probably more like 170-180.

 

[jt7]

article could be bullshit but claims he could do 315

**broken link removed**

also back in the day there was a lot of talk about how hard he worked out so 300 would be believable either way.
