Title: What would U Guess He can Squat/Dead?
Post by: Devon97 on March 27, 2007, 01:30:20 PM
If you saw someone with LEGS this SKINNY wearing shorts, what would you guess they could Squat and DEAD?

I Have asked this person this question many times and NEVER got a reply, but I will ask again.
WHY ARE YOUR LEGS SO SKINNY?

I can see fat adonis squat 405x6 (ass to grass) and deadlift 600x1

I can't see skinny adonis do that

Recall he said he did not lose 1 ounce of muscle...If that were true, he could still do those numbers (actually even more, because you have less of your own mass that your are lifting) at the lower bodyweight

If he was capable of doing it, we would have already seen pics or video. If you think for an instant he wouldn't take the time to film such feats, you don't understand what drives him.

I think lean, muscular Adonis can lift that...actually probably even more now since those claims are probably old.

I doubt it. What where skinny adonis' height & weight in that pic? 5'11? 170lbs?

A 600x1 deadlift @ 170lbs for a fairly tall person is quite remarkable, especially for a natty.

If he can do it - kudos, I just have difficulty believing it

I would be willing to bet with tooth pick legs like that he could not even Squat 315 for 3 parallell reps.

I Can Assure EVERYONE that even when he was fat he could NEVER squat a true parallell 405.

Anyone who Honestly believes that with hams that skinny he deadlifted 225 x 112  is PROVING to me that they have VERY little experience deadlifting!

The True Adonis has claimed a 380 lbs benchpress here on Getbig.

Now, this is a little confusing, since he's claimed otherwise, elsewhere:

Of course, in theory, Abeles could've made a 75 lbs increase in the benchpress.

Only problem is that the claim of 455 lbs came 2 years before the 380 lbs claim.  Huh

My best numbers are: 375 bench, i did 380 but I definitely got 375 without question,no spot.

Squat. 500 ass to the ground calves to hamstrings

Deadlift-600 lbs.

I did not do any maxing out this year, but could have easily hit those numbers.

Unlike you, I don`t have to lie about my lifts.


IM AT 455. COULD BE HIGHER. HAVENT DONE BENCH IN A WHILE....BEEN STICKING WITH THE 130-150 DB`S AND DIPS.


In short, something isn't adding up.

I would say that Abeles' strength claims rank up there right along with 240 or Bust's claims of squatting 405 lbs for 20 reps and 495 lbs for 5 reps.

240 or Bust's claim is just as remarkable, as he claimed to do it with just 3 years of consecutive training.

240 or Bust was good enough to post a description on how he was able to reach that significant weight:

I haven't been sore- at ALL- in two months.

and the squat claims----

I'm glad you asked. I get asked all the time about my squatting numbers and I'm always happy to help a young fan.

One fateful summer, I got that free rack, a Sports Authority set, and started. I squatted 2 times a week for one heavy set of 20 reps.  Now and then I'd add deads or benching, but most of the time, it was just squats.  I pigged out at the same time- I had just quit teaching and had nothing to do but lift, eat, and play PS2.

By the end of the summer I had gained 30 pounds (most was muscle- i finally filled out) and I was regularly doing 300 pounds to parallel for 20-rep squats, just like the internet article I had read had described. (We've all read that one- and it works!)  It was at this time I joined a gym and started to break weights over 300.

315... 335... 355... the weights went up as my reps begain to dip below 20. I always had a spotter or two, and usually finished without assistance.  Soon I was using 405, with 2 spotters, every other weekend on Sunday, with knee wraps. I got up to 8 or so very sickening reps that first time, and nearly sharted.  Rough day. But I continued on. It got easier as I hit the early 420 and 430s.

Hurricane Charley came shortly thereafter and destroyed my beloved SOS Gym in Pt Charlotte, FL. So, I joined a new gym in the fall. By this time, I was working a ton and attending FT classes. I started doing cardio- for the first time in 2 years- and couldn't run 1/8 mile without stopping. Shinsplints followed. But after a while, the cardio came easier for me.

Today I usually squat without a spotter and typically don't go over 315 for 10 slow safe reps. I don't use wraps, and I don't weigh 220 anymore. I'm at 191 today.  My knees ache most days from the cardio, so I am careful about risking heavy leg work while dieting.

I am going to cut off the pic from the waist up and post the legs pic with the shorts I drew and post it on several other boards and see what other experienced lifters have to say about such outrageous claims.

why would you believe his claims? nothing he's ever said has ever come to pass. it's right up there with his deadlift claim.

and look at his legs. he's got legs that have seen a number of leg extensions but not a lot of heavy squatting. i've known a small number of people who can squat to that level and their legs are FAR bigger than adonis's, and yes that includes being at the same bodyfat of roughly 8% that adam shows in his mr getbig photos.

You people are really DESTROYING your cred by  your " Oh I believe he could squat that when he was big" BS.....

Fact is and I QUOTE: " I didnt lose any muscle at all when following the Adonis Principals" If that were the case then he should  Be able to squat 460 x 4 or what ever BS claim he made .
Reality is that HE NEVER EVER squatted 460 anything or deadlifted 225 x 112 whatever... BECAUSE if he had it would be ALL OVER YOUTUBE..... if u dont know... now ya know!

IF U DIDNT LOSE ANY MUSCLE, they WHY ARE YOUR LEGS SO SKINNY????

Of course you do.  You are just as stupid and ignorant as he is.  We've seen your pics.   Go shoot yourself, why live any longer looking like the way you do.  Why would you torture yourself.............dip shit.
