Very possible. He was actually on set for some sort of fitness photo shoot I believe

Might stem from the fact that Simon is a real small dude and these kids can't put up half of what he just did.

whoever said hes done with skiing is wrong
ive been around him at the dew tour start and he was pretty chill but he declined a picture with a fan because he had to be at the start in about 20 seconds not entirely douchey
still dont see why everyone calls him a douche he may be cocky but i would be if i was a pro at age 15 like he was

lol at all the hate. he still probably slams more pussy than a good portion of this site, and still kills it harder than a good portion, too. all the jealousy is great. keep it up, NS.

Yeah man that was real sick. He may be a dick, but I'm not going to deny that he has a fucking solid build, especially for his size. Obviously his core is on point as we can see, and 180 isn't "lifting for fun" weight, that takes some dedication to get to.

News flash but dumont has always been jacked.

I find this video impressive/funny. He's obviously claiming but hes definitely just fucking around. Although, 185lbs dumb bells is pretty insane. Granted that 370lbs on a bench isn't that hard for most people who actually work out and lift (id consider dumont as someone who works out/lifts but most guys who lift alot are 200lbs+) free weights are exponentially harder, added on with the weight that dumont is (130 seems a little light, who knows) makes this quite impressive.

Anyone who hates is jealous and anyone who calls him a douche bag for this video needs to take life a little less serious.

Or maybe they're fake and we just got trolled hard.

1. Where the fuck do you get 185 lbs dumbbells

2. How the fuck do you casually throw that weight around, 370 is like a respectable squat weight

3. Without a spotter.

4. that's 2x my max bench, I'm fuckin jelly if its not bullshit

i would say, 370 bench, thats ok for someone working on it (although a lot for his size).

but then with dumbbells, thats a shitton harder. he should be able to bench easily 420 or so, which is A LOT.

i dont know horseshit about bodybuilder-style workouts, just football-oriented stuff, and while i know some strong dudes, not too many of them have a max bench of 400+, even if they are 250-300 lbs.

than without a spotter (and how he handled the weights) pretty much means that he can do a lot more than shown in the vid.

so either its fake or hes pretty jacked.

holy shit that was insane. and to all the people saying juice. even if it was juice that was still FUCKING IMPRESSIVE. One does not inject roids and magically grow super muscle and lift epic amounts.

370 is not simple for the average lifter. Especially for a few solid reps.

I'm leaning toward it somehow not being real?

A lot of my juicer friends from the gym weigh like 205 on stage and can't incline bench that much without someone handing them the weight.

My friend Mo is like 230 lbs and needs me to hand him one of the 130s when he incline benches them. Very skeptical...very very skeptical. 370 incline with dumbbells for 4? That is like a 450 max flat bench with a bar at 130 lbs lol... nope

this is fake, heres the proof

ok so check out the current powerlifting world records

the world record for bench in his weightclass (60kgs= 132lbs) is 135 kgs which is pretty much exactly 300lbs,

in his video, dumont performs an incline db bench press, which is even harder than a flat barbell bench press, with a total weight of supposedly 370 lbs

hed be a world record lifter if this was real, which just is not possible on top of a professional skiing career (involves dieting, daily workouts, permanent soreness and lots of time)

not only is he trying to fool us all, hes also disrespectful to people who have dedicated their whole life to lifting, putting in all they have got every single day

i ulsually am not a fan of hate on ns, but this guy sucks even more than i thought

somebody else said he was there for a fitness shoot so maybe they use dummy weights in those shoots and he was just joking around.

You can clearly tell they're fake. The way they go up, the lack of tension in his muscles, and the 25 pound bump they make when they hit the ground. He's on set at a photoshoot and the guy filming is clearly exaggerating.

He's not a douche. This isn't real. He's fucking around. The video is obviously cut and I'm pretty sure you'll see a relevant ad come out later and all the puzzle pieces will click together. Relax people.

Nah they're labeled "185" if you look closely. Also dumbbells rarely come in increments of 2.5 lbs
