The video of Kennedy on the incline bench press was tweeted by Ryan Calder, a fitness coach, who clarified the presidential candidate was bench pressing double the weight shown in earlier sets.
This was his last dropset at 50% of his max for today… I joined just to spot his last set.
He’s the greatest Presidential Champion in history. By far.
Solid human being and leader.
