He's definitely one of the stronger pros. And you're right about his being a strong squatter. I know you can't trust FLEX magazine all the way, but I remember reading he used to squat around 700 lb, although I think that was on a smith machine. This was around the time he turned pro. Which is why his legs looked their best in the 92 Olympia.

I was suspecting that.
But, since he was known for his strength, its not strange that he can do this now.
The strength is something like genetic. Look at Sevas, he lifts tons of weight with his skinny legs.
And he was doing good warm up and stretch with a leg press machine. If that is fake weight, maybe he wont do it.
Ok, maybe acting? who knows..

It might just be me, but the last thing i want to do after a heavy squat set is run to a camera and and start talking, fine he didnt do assisted reps or anything, but it doesnt make a lot of sense in my book.

Its another reason which made me suspect if its a fake plates.
But he did only 5 reps and that was not failure.
So, its possible.

130kgX20
180kgX15
220kgX10

He dont want to go heavy with squat anymore because his horrible knees.
His max was 300kgX6reps

Meaningless to ask a bodybuilder how much he squat, bench, press or anything else. They do half reps, use assistance, do it in the smith machine ect ect...

Video clips with no fucking hands under the bar is what counts. All the talk about having a good spotter bcz of safety reasons is just bullshit.

Yes, Kyomu and Paco do half reps so have to keep that in mind.

TBH it isn't too hard to squat without any hands on the bar. Try it with one plate a side at first.

Yeah I remember reading that he was a powerlifter before switching to bodybuilding. Story has it that he was competing in a lifting comp and decided to try out at a bb comp next door and one thing led to another.  Could be some Flexmag spin though

Not sure, but I think he mentioned something similar in one of his videos or maybe in a video like the BFTO or something. Earl probably knows.

Not surprising, out of all the pros Levrone was one of the strongest, he held back a lot even in his videos of him benching 405 for 12, could have easily done 15 or maybe even 20 like he said. Very strong dude. Wonder what his deadlifts were??

Some guys are made for benching or squatting, don't have to be very big to lift big, mainly genetics.

All pros take drugs, some are weaker than others and some are stronger than others, again, genetics.

Strong probably are Prince, Ronnie, Cormier, Francois, Yates, Robinson, Levrone, etc...
