That pic is from a Flex photo shoot from a few years ago.  There were more pics where he actually does take it down and come back up.

720lbs before the weight of the bar (50lbs-?).
Do I think he squated it on the smith? Yeah,,,,Free? No I do not.

Looks like a Chris Lund photo shoot given the signature lighting. You ought to ask JP Fux about fake weights and CL photo shoots. I'm thinking he's gonna have a different take. 8)

That is what's known as a "glamour shot" of squat pictures. Just like a real glamor shot, the picture is far from reality.

Haha when do you think they start using fake weights? Yep, JP's got something to do with it.  8)

Keith Byars when he was at OSU back in the 80s squatted well over 700 at 240 lbs.  Chris Carter squatted 505 at 190 lbs.  I'm sure an IFBB pro can handle that kind of weight.

gh15 is a strong mofo... watch "back to basics"... gh 15 pushes some weight... one of the few pro bbers that actually has strength.

What is a smith machine rated for in terms of weight?...I've never seen one rated more then 600 pounds...I'm sure they are out there though...

No fake plates needed, the weight's not even unlocked. He's not supporting it by himself.
