Title: Nora lifts heavy
Post by: 2020 Olympia on August 15, 2022, 07:30:41 AM
Nora is 80 yo and squats 415. Awesome stuff

Upon closer inspection, I realise she is training in the same gym as I was in 97 and the same guy who was spotting me, is spotting her. If I was 21 and he as close to 40 he must be in his 70s or close by.

I rememeber asking him about his diet because he was always very lean. To my dismay, he ate like a regular guy, toast coffee scrambled eggs etc and at that time was working as a stage hand assembling and dissasembling stages and lighta for various local shows.

This is in Royal Oak MI btw. Cool little family of rednecks owned gym with gramma at the front deskshe was also the boss (tough lady). We did powerlifting and strongman stuff in the backroom (chains keg lifts rack stuff etc)

Aside from my competitive Strongman friends, I've seen three people squat 405 or more in normal commercial gyms in my life.

The average man cannot squat 415. I can squat 385 for two reps, and have just not tried 415 - but if I could get it, it would most likely be for a single.

As for B. Hank - didn't he sustain a leg injury requiring him to use a cane for a period of time? If so, that may explain why his squat is down.

I used to squat in my college gym - and lots of people could do over 400. I think it depends on the local culture. I started out squatting about 180 and working up to 405 over 6 months. It wasn't THAT hard. I disliked the pressure on my spine though and stopped doing them. Same with deadlifts. It's something you have to be into doing. I wasn't.


I really do think the squat is for powerlifters- bodybuilders and your average gym trainer will do fine using leg presses. Lot less risk too.

In 2013 and 2014, half of the Ontario's Strongest Man lineup came from Thunder Bay. Literally 8-9-10 of 16-20 competitors. I'd have to go back and get the exact list, but that's close enough.

As a challenge - video anyone at your gym who squats 405.

I'd be shocked if you see one person squatting 405 any time in the next month.

Bhanky assured us that he fully rehabbed his knees to better than new using his patented methods.

Even quadriplegics can regain full mobility using his methods if they are not pussies.

Since my gym, Gold's, shut down during the fauxdemic, I would be hard pressed to find anyone squatting 405 there, lol.


I really can't see the issue here- a 405 squat is very good but nothing special. You must have some very weak people up there.

I know of 3-4 gyms in Houston where guys squat 400+ every single day.

Hell i can go to any University in Texas and get that on film.

I don’t even want to hear about what people think they have squatted she isn’t even at 90 degrees and is keeled over forward trying to get the bar lower without getting her ass lower. No way that is a valid squat. Getbig wouldn’t give me credit for that. I am not giving any of you credit for claimed anything unless you got a video showing your ass is a foot off the ground it didn’t happen it’s all bullshit half reps. Going from above 90 to 45 is a completely different animal several degrees of difficulty harder. That is how I know you bullshitters dont squat. 315lbs ATG is harder than 405lb to almost 90 yet you guys just say Hankins isn’t squatting much weight idiots. She hasn’t even gotten to the effective range of motion yet

Her ass is above her knees for fuck sake you dont have to be an expert to see the difference. I am a foot lower than her it’s not even close to the same thing. see her squat half that to my depth would be twice as impressive.

I look great today because I learned form is more important. I can still use a lot more weight if I was only concerned about weight. Not all lifts are created equal. I was bouncing 315 for 6 reps. I was half squatting 405lbs with a spot.

What I am doing now is more effective training. I am still very strong I just train better

If only Stephen Hawking had known.

Lol.

I accept that he had an injury and can't squat like he used to + being over 40.

There's no need to make excuses. That's fine. I legit ATG squat [contest form] 385x2 at 170. I very seldom see anyone squat that, and whatever percentage of men squat that much with respect to their body weight, it is under 1%.

So I see no reason to make excuses for "only" squatting that. By Getbig standards, it's not impressive - but practically speaking, very few people can squat roughly 2.5x body fat.

You don't have 220-lb men squatting 500-lb for a double with contest form. You'd have to believe in leprechauns to think that happens with any regularity.

Getbig seems to me La La Land for lift claims - absolutely none of which are ever verified.

I believe Fortress when he says he has squatted 635, and tommywishbone posted a video of him squatting 500 for 10.

I'm in the gym five days a week. No one EVER squats 405+. Once every five years only makes that statement technically incorrect. But when I say never - I mean just about never.

I really can't see the issue here- a 405 squat is very good but nothing special. You must have some very weak people up there.

I've personally witnessed three individual men in my life squatting 405 or more, having been a regular gym rat for almost 22 years now.

I have never been present with anyone squatting more than 495-lb, which my friend Peter Skaf tripled in 2006, weighing 222-lb at 5'11.5", with incredibly strong legs.

As for my city's strength, here is the 2013 Ontario's Strongest Man lineup:

1. Luke Skaarup- 92 pts - Thunder Bay
2. Ben Ruckstuhl- 86
3. Paul Vaillancourt- 85
4. Max Boudreault- 84 - Thunder Bay [currently #5 in the world]
5. Eric Rautenburg- 75
6. Joe deWitt- 75
7. Ben Thompson- 53 - Thunder Bay
8. Karl Hjelholt- 42
9. Eric Brady- 37 - Thunder Bay
10. Jared Wick- 35 - Thunder Bay
11. Rob Gordon- 25 - Thunder Bay
12. Eddie Warne- 16
13. Kyle Rayner - withdrew [injury] - Thunder Bay

So it's safe to say my city is pretty strong.

This is what I'd suggest to you:

Every time you see someone squatting 405-lb or more at a commercial gym, film it.

I would be flabbergasted if you even saw one person squat 405 in the next month.

One of the gyms I train at is called the Canada Games Complex. I've been going there since 1991, and lifting there maybe half the years since 2001.

I've never seen anyone squat 405 or more there. Other than myself, I saw one person squat 385 for a double.

That's in 21 years.

I go to two separate gyms, and I'm the strongest person at every lift at both gyms. My leg press machine only fits 10 plates per side, and myself and my training partner are the only ones there who can do that, with perfect form [deep reps].

I just find it strange that I'm the strongest person in any gym I walk into 99% of the time, yet supposedly there are so many people who [be it] squat 405, deadlift 495, or bench press 315 or more, yet I never seen any of this, ever.

Though I am not doubting you, Hypertrophy. You are a credible person. I'm saying - I never see it myself.

I just attributed it to most North Americans being lazy, lol. But...whatever the reason, I never witness it.

I'm going to film every time I see someone squat 405 or more. I'd be shocked if I see anyone do it at any point this year.

I agree, a 405 squat is nothing spectacular as far as records go - but I'm just saying I never witness it. Not even twice a decade.

If you mean you weigh more, then maybe. It's not like I couldn't get to 250+ if I cared to. 220 would be an absolute cakewalk.

I know you're too much of a dumb fuck to understand this, but some people maintain a low body weight intentionally in order to stay in good health. That should be obvious given how quickly I shot up 25-lb, and shooting up another 25 beyond that wouldn't be all that hard either.

Stupid fuck - you thought I was staying 170 because I wasn't able to go up in weight. HAHAHAHA, YOU DUMB FUCK.

The hint should of been how strong I was for my size - totally consistent with someone who trains hard but purposely maintains a low body weight.

Anyway, I've proven it now, and I might just go to 220 to cement that.

You're a weak fat shit and probably bald.

B. Hank's physique is vastly superior to yours - with or without drugs.

I've personally witnessed three individual men in my life squatting 405 or more, having been a regular gym rat for almost 22 years now.

Move out of a small City.

I personally know dozens of men that squat over 405 for reps.

You live in a city of 100k people.

That's not a good sample size for strength athletes.

My high school in Texas had 10-15 teenagers that did over 400 back in the 90's.

Lol.

I accept that he had an injury and can't squat like he used to + being over 40.

There's no need to make excuses. That's fine. I legit ATG squat [contest form] 385x2 at 170. I very seldom see anyone squat that, and whatever percentage of men squat that much with respect to their body weight, it is under 1%.

So I see no reason to make excuses for "only" squatting that. By Getbig standards, it's not impressive - but practically speaking, very few people can squat roughly 2.5x body fat.

You don't have 220-lb men squatting 500-lb for a double with contest form. You'd have to believe in leprechauns to think that happens with any regularity.

Getbig seems to me La La Land for lift claims - absolutely none of which are ever verified.

I believe Fortress when he says he has squatted 635, and tommywishbone posted a video of him squatting 500 for 10.

I'm in the gym five days a week. No one EVER squats 405+. Once every five years only makes that statement technically incorrect. But when I say never - I mean just about never.

I've personally witnessed three individual men in my life squatting 405 or more, having been a regular gym rat for almost 22 years now.

I have never been present with anyone squatting more than 495-lb, which my friend Peter Skaf tripled in 2006, weighing 222-lb at 5'11.5", with incredibly strong legs.

As for my city's strength, here is the 2013 Ontario's Strongest Man lineup:

1. Luke Skaarup- 92 pts - Thunder Bay
2. Ben Ruckstuhl- 86
3. Paul Vaillancourt- 85
4. Max Boudreault- 84 - Thunder Bay [currently #5 in the world]
5. Eric Rautenburg- 75
6. Joe deWitt- 75
7. Ben Thompson- 53 - Thunder Bay
8. Karl Hjelholt- 42
9. Eric Brady- 37 - Thunder Bay
10. Jared Wick- 35 - Thunder Bay
11. Rob Gordon- 25 - Thunder Bay
12. Eddie Warne- 16
13. Kyle Rayner - withdrew [injury] - Thunder Bay

So it's safe to say my city is pretty strong.

This is what I'd suggest to you:

Every time you see someone squatting 405-lb or more at a commercial gym, film it.

I would be flabbergasted if you even saw one person squat 405 in the next month.

One of the gyms I train at is called the Canada Games Complex. I've been going there since 1991, and lifting there maybe half the years since 2001.

I've never seen anyone squat 405 or more there. Other than myself, I saw one person squat 385 for a double.

That's in 21 years.

I go to two separate gyms, and I'm the strongest person at every lift at both gyms. My leg press machine only fits 10 plates per side, and myself and my training partner are the only ones there who can do that, with perfect form [deep reps].

I just find it strange that I'm the strongest person in any gym I walk into 99% of the time, yet supposedly there are so many people who [be it] squat 405, deadlift 495, or bench press 315 or more, yet I never seen any of this, ever.

Though I am not doubting you, Hypertrophy. You are a credible person. I'm saying - I never see it myself.

I just attributed it to most North Americans being lazy, lol. But...whatever the reason, I never witness it.

I'm going to film every time I see someone squat 405 or more. I'd be shocked if I see anyone do it at any point this year.

I agree, a 405 squat is nothing spectacular as far as records go - but I'm just saying I never witness it. Not even twice a decade.

First off she isn’t even close to out squatting me that is a joke. 2nd she is the only person in her division that doesnt change the fact that what she did in the video was not even close to a proper squat. watch the video it is criminal that her trainers are encouraging  that are they trying to hurt her?

I agree with you Bhanky. That 80 year old woman cannot out squat you.

My college gym had just one machine - a universal gym. Everything else was free weights. I think that had a lot to do with it- you wanted to train legs hard, you squatted. Now with hack squat, leg press, etc people avoid squatting like the plague.


I used to see guys deadlifting 500 pounds there too.


Times must have changed, lol.

I know you’re not too smart but why do you keep bringing up past lifts when you tell other people their past physique are worthless?

I know you’re not too bright, but come on.
He will claim that he’s strong enough to do those past lifts, but he’s too smart now and trains to avoid injury.  :D :D

You jerkoff on camera for soggy old unsuspecting men.

You have “certificates” from a University that is basically a GED Diploma mill.

You’re tiny and weak. You are small and your lifts are light and with shitty form. Your dumbbell work looks like you’re trying to fuck your own chin.

You’re inadequate, there is nothing about you, or nothing you do, that is in any way impressive.

And….you jerkoff on camera for old men. Fucking queer little weirdo.
