Putting Up Big Numbers, Simeon Panda is on the Road to Benching 500Lbs

Simeon Panda is gaining some solid strength.

For many bodybuilders setting new personal records in terms of weight isn’t usually a pronounced goal. While lifting heavy is a priority, many bodybuilders are focused more on their aesthetic results than the numbers on the bar. But the desire to bolster strength is one that some athletes simply can’t deny.

Simeon Panda is one of those kinds of athletes.

Looking to bench press 500lbs, Simeon Panda has been hard at work in the gym. Day in and day out, week after week, Simeon Panda has been improving his strength steadily.

Now as he recently benched 435lbs, the fitness influencer is looking to join the 500 club. His recent Instagram video shows a dedicated and determined Simeon Panda lifting some serious weight in the gym.
