So you think a 200lb 6 foot 5 man can squat 700? That makes him pound forpound pretty much the greatest squatter ever. 3 and a half times bodyweight!

Sir Chris Hoy squats 5 plates like its an empty bar... Are bolts squats with 700lb rock btm? Probly not, could he move it... No doubt at all in my mind, pure fast twitch power..

He just takes more drugs that's all ;)

I think any top sprinter could hit big numbers

Usain's a troll of epic proportions ;D ;D no biography is complete without crazy numbers. He probably can quarter squat it.



Here are some big lifts by sprinters. Notice johnsons no homo 5 plate bob chick box squat. Also noticeable is the british neegal who comfortably cleans 375lbs which is a BIG fckn lift. I believe he wasn't a even a 100m specialist but 200m (could be wrong on that).

Bolt is just pulling numbers out of his ass.
LOL @ anyone who believes this. :D

No way is he squatting 700lbs for even a partial. Fuck, the moment he bends his knees he'd crushed into nothingness.

300lb bench is more believable although even if that's true, it still probably a real shitty rep.

Amazing that he's even good at 200m with that big of a build.

Some of the heavyweight power lifters here perhaps. A legit 700lb squat is insane.

Bolt doesn't train for strength. He trains to improve his sprinting. Why would he even risk attempting to squat that kind of weight?
On his heaviest training days, I doubt he goes above the 400-500lb squatting range - similar to almost all elite sprinters.

I'd actually have to agree here. I'd go with maybe quarter squats not to parallel though...

Obviously Bolt has tendons like steel ropes to be able to accelerate so fast.  He is a genetic anomolie.  Pushing heavy weight is far less muscle as it is skeletal and tendon strength.  Bolt probably has zero endurance but in short bursts is unmatched when it comes to strength.  Plus his mind muscle connection is outworldly to be able to tap deep into his body for maximum output.  Something most people will never be able to do.
