Who is more Yoked - Jay Cutler or Ronnie Coleman?
Ronnie is so much bigger in volume. Jay's shoulders and upper body are slightly more shredded - but he really lacks on the chest, bicep and calves.
verdict: RONNIE!

Ronnie Coleman Deadlifts 800 pounds
800 pounds? With multiple reps? Not bad considering that the world record is 1,003 pounds. Ronnie Coleman probably has hung out with Barry Bonds a little too much:

The Perfect Bench Press
Begin by lying flat on the bench, with your body in a natural and relaxed position. Make sure that you are not holding your shoulders in an awkward position. Be sure to have a natural spinal curve. You do not want to have your lower back completely flat on the bench, but you do not want to force it to curve too much either. Instead, opt for a comfortable and natural position. You should have your feet flat on the ground and your shoulders touching the bench.
Put your arms straight out to either side of you, and then bend your elbows, bringing your hands up to touch the bar. This is where you should position your hands. You can make your grip sightly wider to increase the amount of pectoral muscles involved in this exercise, and you can bring your grip in slightly to increase your triceps involvement. For a standard bench press, opt for the normal grip.
Begin with just the bar weight. Lift the bar off the rack and position it directly above the middle of your chest. Inhale as you lower it down, gently touching your chest with the bar. Do not bounce the bar off your chest, as this can cause serious injury. Begin to exhale as you push the bar up and away from your body. Extend your arms to just under full extension. Repeat this for eight repetitions as your first set.
Now add weight to the bar. The bar by itself weighs 45 pounds. You will want to increase by five to ten pounds at a time until you find a comfortable weight.
Be sure to have a spotter to help you whenever you lift a heavy weight. You never want to drop the bar on yourself.
Drink plenty of water, and take at least two minute breaks in between each set. You should ideally perform one light set of eight repetitions, followed by three heavy sets of increasing weight, with six, four, and then finally two repetitions.
