23 y.o. 1000lbs squat

Or that Perry Rader once had flowing blonde locks.

Negative.  I have competed extensively in both sports.  Powerlifting has plenty of odd stuff happening but the creepy factor is minimal.

Odd in the judging sense as guys with 10 million UTube followers get calls the rest of us don't.  Its a sport....I'm not sure what bodybuilding is

Why not use a power rack with safety catchers?

I don't care how big, strong and competent those spotters are... if something serious happens, they cannot possibly stop that weight from crashing and potentially killing that kid.

same story for bench presses

they could easily use a safety system for bench presses

but powerlifting is just a backwards community where bravado is more important than safety

No safeties on a monolift but there are straps that hook onto it to catch a dumped lift, these guys never seem to use them.

that's insane weight but I don't get doing a mile-high (at least from that angle) PR a week before a meet? Wouldn't that kill his CNS and potentially injure him?

RC was a powerlifter and he didn't do any of that retarded stuff because there is no need. He lifted 800lbs without any of that bravado nonsense.

This is embarrassing

[blackpele]

Un-fucking-believable.

A 23-yr old freak squats 1001lbs (not to mention making 805lb look like it was 135lbs) and the majority of ppl here are concerned with his facial features and overall looks.

Only in getbig my friend, only in getbig.......

Grambling State. He has an honors degree in accounting. He's not a stupid guy, just sounds stupid when he talks

Southern drawls make people sound dumber it seems... Especially when they slur their words. Doesn't necessarily mean they're stupid or have low IQ. "Don't judge a book by its cover" and all that...

Considering he's unbelievably stupid,  you've got your calendar filled in advance for what...at least five more years?

[hardgainerj]

it depends on execution

the more upright the torso the more the knees will travel forward

an olympic full squat barely breaks paralel

because the knees travel so much forward and so the shin bone inclines to the front and lowers the knee height also and so the thigh bone ends up horizontal when knee is fully folded

this way the quads take a big load of the work almost like leg extensions


true story


many olympic lifters have phenomenal quads


but hack squats machine are more practical


perfect example, this is his full depth yet the thigh is parallel

massive load on the quads
