This past Saturday, at Tod Becraft and Julie Havelka's unsanctioned Oregon State Benchpress Championships (held in conjunction with the NPC Oregon Stage Bodybuilding Championships) Ryan Kennelly opened with an easy 920 pounds and then went on to destroy a 986 pound competition bench! (The officials were Rick McClung, Owner of Big Bear's Gym, Marc Caplan, Owner of the Dog Pound Gym and another member of the Dog Pound Gym powerlifting team who's name I can't recall, but I know that he's an APF and APC competition lifter.)

Look for the BenchMonster to do some amazing feats of strength in the Ukraine pro show!

Ryan is by far the most consistent bencher out there right now, the guy is just a fukkin animal!
