Funny how the World's Strongest Man uses a weight on the leg press that many people would consider "light". Just goes to show the importance of range of motion when comparing lifts. Most of these guys who claim 1,000+ lb leg presses are doing half reps at best. Mariusz, on the other hand, goes very deep with all of his reps.

How many poles does it take to squat 310 kilos?

I was really annoyed by the plug for Met-Rx and Amped during the nutrition portion of the video.

Bluto · « **Reply #28 on:** January 26, 2006, 06:35:55 PM »

cool video.pound for pound that's one strong mofo. no psyching up. no spotter. no suit. no chalk. no shouting. he just says calmly "last set" then goes on and squat

Fvck that is impressive.

I couldn't help but think about what happened to Jean P. feux (sp?) in that flex shoot when watching him squat.

When Ronnie lifted 805 pounds he was already dieting. Moreover he does not train and juice specifically for strength. Also, he did 2 reps, this guy just one. So I think that Ronnie is very close.
For sure Ronnie is better as a lifter than this guy as a bodybuilder.

Would love to see him squat with that weight on a medicine ball

GMCtrk · « **Reply #36 on:** January 26, 2006, 08:11:48 PM »

If I heard correctly that was 310kg on that final rep, which is about 685lbs. Coleman did 805x2 in a squat suit and didn't bounce his rep like mariusz.

And Mike Ohearn supposedly can press more on the leg press. Yeah, right..

And he is natural, at least he has never tested positive. Ronnie claims to be natural as well though... you never know!

Are you sure those competitions are tested?

Damn strong anyway you slice it.

awesome! clean form!

His form is as tight and clean as possible, however, just seeing how he locks out his knees on the concentric portion of his legpresses, I know his knees are taking a beating.

I can't imagine maxing out and doing that. The point is to keep the strain on the quads, lessening the chance of any knee problems, but the way he does the movement is so violent that I wonder how his joints hold up.

I understand why he does the reps fast, but that doubly makes it important to avoid locking out and keeping the negatives slow. He's really taking a chance here....

Huh

Sorry to burst your delusion, but the "45", written on those plates, are kilograms, not pounds. One kilogram=2.2 pounds.
