The difference in some people's genetics is crazy.
Granted I didn't train the bench as often but I never hit 120kg, but I could squat 120kg for reps in my second or third leg day.
Listening to some interviews with elite strongman gets annoying when you hear them boasting 100kg+ bench presses the first time they visit a gym when they're 16 years old. I find that completely believable, but find the following quote from Andy Bolton complete bullshit regarding the squat:
"My first time ever squatting I did 220kg (484lbs) for 22 reps. I benched 80kg (176lbs), and deadlifted 260kg (572lbs)."
Then again, I find Kirk Karwoski having a 1120lb/509kg total at age 14 believable.
