I'm pretty sure that in 6 weeks he will be doing reps with 500.

Can't see the video but is Levrone talking about 500lb squats already?

Nothing beats genetically superior muscle-memory.

I thought Kevin had a bad back and couldn't squat.

That was the rumor that was going around during the last few years prior to his retirement. Every show his legs were worse and worse, to the point where many guys were even asking him if he trained legs at all any more.
He said he blew out his back by squatting 700lbs.

Stavios · « **Reply #12 on:** November 13, 2009, 11:16:09 AM »

he should just leg press then

Van_Bilderass · « **Reply #13 on:** November 13, 2009, 11:23:13 AM »

He should start deadlifting. Avoiding lower back work doesn't ever seem to improve a bad back. He needs to strengthen the lower back if he has back problems. Reverse hypers, deadlifts, good mornings, etc.

maybe he has no legs?

Leg press is almost as bad as squats for the back.

Maybe you are right !

I never had any back pain while deadlifting but I can't do squat anymore

just unracking the bar, something pinches a nerve in my lower back and it hurts like hell.
Even with 135 lbs

Is this a good alternative to the leg press?
