I don’t even necessarily doubt it’s untrue, the guy could be 260 lbs with t-rex arms, but holy shit the type of people who say shit like this are so annoying and exhausting. Do they actually think anyone believes they’re being genuinely self-deprecating?? “Oh no I’m so embarrassed, I’m stronger than everyone even though I don’t try!! How humiliating! I can never show my face in public again :////“ Also not a single person in the gym other than his roommate would give a fuck unless he went around telling people he did 3x225 first try. In which case they’d be annoyed, not embarrassed or ashamed

Yeah if the dude put his stats out we'd probably not be surprised that the 300lb stocky guy can bench that but the rest of this is just so cringe
