Congrats to Maryana Naumova!

240 pounds is an impressive amount of weight for someone her age to be benching.

O.K. I am official embarrased! She can put me to shame with the amount she can lift. At her age, or any age for that matter, that is awesome!

Impressive but couldn’t get over the form. The arch in her back was very pronounced.
And speaking of strong youths, here’s a 17-yr old benching 700-lbs: http://www.yardbarker.com/all_sports/articles/msn/texas_high_school_senior_matt_poursoltani_lifts_700_pounds_rivals_nfl_bench_press_record_video/13226986

Re: the arch. That’s how powerlifters do it. It looks more pronounced when she does it, because she’s not particularly large or heavy.
Matt’s very impressive too! Thanks for the link.
