He meant he had squat style intercourse with 4 or 5 chick's repeatedly.

1/4 reps on the Smith machine.

I think there is a video of him squatting for reps back in the 90's.

Not sure why anyone would find this hard to believe.

Your legs don't have to be all that big to be good at squatting. You see a lot of powerlifters whose legs look pretty much like Tyson's do there.

I believe it. Tyson was believed to have taken drugs like halotestin and cheque drops and he was clearly on other aas throughout his career so plus he was a naturally gifted athlete therefor very believable

I believe it. Why's it so hard to believe ? Tyson was a beast. A strong one at that.

I seen a relatively scrawny high school kid squat reps with 405....so I'm sure Mike Tyson could pull it off.

Go to 4:27 on this video. Very quick clip of him using a pad with 225 and him doing 1/4 reps. Any more deeper and 225 would eat him up. If you don't think so, you don't know weight lifting. The guy is using a pussy pad on the bar like a chick...lol

With the same strict form as Kali Muscle does with 315lb barbell curls?

Going to any reasonably-appropriate depth, Tyson would have been sunk with 405.

Here's what 405 would do to Mike Tyson without a spot and going deep

i used to be a huge tyson fan

what really dissapointed me was finding out he didnt even train much for his fights after he got out of prison being young then  i wanted him to win so bad, i jused to get so amped for his fights.

I'd believe #405 out of machine for a few reps. He's had phases where his legs were better, and he's an explosive guy, so I can see him gutting out #405 on a machine where you take balancing the bar, etc.... out of the equitation.

P.S. I hadn't seen this before, Tyson's first professional fight -

Who fucking cares...you think the guys he was fighting were saying "He can't squat 4050 for reps so I'm gonna knock him out" ::)

Also to be fair he had the neck pad probably cause he suffered from a bad neck injury that he dealt with for a long time until having surgery on it a couple of years ago.

Mike Tyson was a genetic freak. At 13 he weighed around 190 pounds with a bb physique. He became a heavyweight champion at the age of 20, weighing in at 220 pounds of solid muscle.

As far as I know he did not use weights for his training in his early career. He only did shrugs with dumbells and running with a backpack with weights (cause Cus did not want him to get taller).

Later on he started using more bb exercise in his training routine. I have no doubt that a prime Tyson would squat 405 for reps. Its not that heavy for a 220 athlete with thick legs.

But you don't know what he had been doing before he squatted the 225 in that vid , that could have been at the end of a workout where his legs were already fried.

Don't know whether he did ever squat 405 but 405 for reps is certainly well within the reach of a person of his build in his prime.

If a drunk retard like myself can squat 405 for reps then a gifted athlete like Tyson do would be toying around with it.
