Insane... He looks like nobody but destroyed that weight. That was all heart.

his legs look big tho and his stats say 116kg bodyweight or something which is also heavy i wonder what his height is i'm thinking 6' or 6'1" ?

Here you go PureNaturalDebbieDowner,

He also used Smolov and gained 30 lbs to his squat.  I hope this helps (I doubt that it will because you are nothing but a bitch)

[ Invalid YouTube link ]


that guy is amazing because he squats like i think you should squat with the bar "high" and to complete range of motion


this tool rapes lay nortom in every way shape and form


but i'm sure he also uses hormones but probably a lot less than lay nortom

great lifter if u ask me

I`ve been squatting around 4 times a week using Smolov Routine and I have increased my squat about 50 lbs in a month.  I still have another month to go.  I think Layne Norton also got similar results.

Yea ok 5'11 155lbs. Post some vids of your supernatural squat increase bro

Squatted today. Best leg mass building exercise period! Most people are just too weak to deal with the mental pain of squatting.

i hated lay nortom all the time then i found out he "is too tall to squat high bar full depth" and now i just pray for him to meet with a terrible accident

I agree , the single best exercise there is , is the barbell squat it works more muscles than any other single exercise there is , you bring up a great point people just can't deal with squatting and avoid it all costs

Layne Norton is a Dr. in natural protein synthesis - his douchy glasses help to protect his academic eyes during bukkake seminars.

Yes, working your chest and arms is easy.  Working your back and legs is hard.  That is my theory anyway.


You are right on target. Most look for an easy way.

This is the reason why squats are sometimes overrated.

front squat form is easier because your torso can stay more vertical that way it's easier to maintain lower back tighness/arch

Useless exercise for a BB (unless u wanna build a fat ass and child bearing hips)
Awesome exercise if you are not geneticly predisposed to fat ass and child bearing hips - its all genetics.
