Been hearing this for quite some time.

It's easier for shorter people to lift more weight because in most cases they don't have to move the weight nearly as far as someone my height for example. My range of motion is probably 50% more than someone who's say 5'5"-5'7". A guy benching 225lbs at 5'7" is not as strong as a guy who's 6'3" and pushing the same IMO.

Berz beat me to it. Fucker.

JD out.
