Jesse Marunde - Squats 407 x 20 times - and other feats of strength

[Fortress]

What's with 407? They counting the collars?

Great squatter. Nice and deep and REAL reps.

I have done 405 for 15 with really good Olympic style.

bullshit unless you prove it

Burn2Live can possibly do 10-15 reps with 405 ass to grass.

Seem him do 5 reps preexhausted and he is much stronger now

Maybe the weights were in kilos hence the slightly different number to the usual "405".

Also, epic soothsaying t shirt.

How'd I know someone would suggest I am lying? Dude, I have done 315 for 31, as well. Actually, I once performed 18 with 405, but the form on the last few was abysmal.

I won the USAPL Ohio Powerlifting Championhips in 2001 with a 660-pound squat. This was drug-free and using minimal support gear and an Olympic style (a holdover from my years as a competitive bodybuilder). I have performed a RAW 600 in the gym. I hope to do 700 RAW and drug-free within the next few years.

I no longer train for ultra-high reps. HOWEVER, for fun, I might oblige you doubting Thomases sometime in the next few months.

I would have thought a guy like Jesse Marunde to do more reps with 407! 

Here is a young guy (22) i am training doing a 375 x 15, 285 x 10, 175 x 13 dropset last year.

Nice work! But to be fair, your guy's depth is substantially less than Jesse's. No disrespect. He is a strong kid, to be sure.

thats good. he's a strong dude. however he's not going as deep as marunde. he went below paralel, that guy you are training is above paralell. makes difference.

Thank you for taking my word for it. I DO NOT lie about the poundages I lift. As a purist, to do so is blasphemy, in my books. I take MAJOR issue with bull claims, believe me.

Having said all this, I have wanted to capture some reps on camera for a while now. Perhaps the time is right to consider devoting a few weeks to repping. If I so choose, I will certainly post the footage here for members to witness.

You are right.
I was in no way or shape trying to say that my friend here is stronger than Marunde!

I was just thinking as strong as marunde was, he should be able to do more reps or at a faster pace with 405.

The Platz video with 23 reps at 500 comes to mind.

Well Platz is in a league of his own when it commes to legs!
