whatever... dont listen to these fools....when we had 5 plates on the deadlift the people around us stopped to see the attempt...its a feat...
morbidly obese meltdown
I hate to break this to some of you guys who are on Squad's case...being ripped does not make you stronger. I am sure I will hear the same crap now, but I do not look much different than him...I am 5'6 215-220 pounds...not ripped just big...or fat as some of you are saying. I have deadlifted 615 for a double with no belt, conventional style, 100% natrual. I can slo bench around 365 and squat mid 500's. His claims are not far fecthed at all at his size. In fact, I have some really small guys do some crazy lifts. I saw a guest lifter at a power lifting meet at 165 squat 600 for five good reps. He was sauced but who gives a shit...that is raw power, and he looked like he was just an avergae dude walking down the street. So to summarize...a guy at Squads size can surely squat 405 for reps...not 40 but reps. Also, having some fat does not make you weak and being ripped does not make you stronger. Thank you, drive through.
Morbidly obese? Dude you have just shown everyone here how little you know about lifting weights / body building. This does not even need a reply.
I'm a fat piece of shit and can do it easily. What's your statement got to do with how strong someone is? 405 for 10-12 doesn't make you a god. Sounds like a brutal case of internet jealousy to me. If some of you people take a look at people who train for strength, you'd be surprised at teh body types you'll find. I've got a kid I'm working with ATM that deads 600 (suited ofcourse), 19 years old, and is only 185lbs. There was a LEGIT vid posted yesterday I believe with a kid, only 20, hitting 405 on the bench for 10.
how much you want to bet? come to St. Louis and watch me train, if i don't do it with God as my witness i'll sign over the deed to my house to you.
confirmed word around here is you are just a big fat biscuit boy.
Can Tom Platz, Ronnie Coleman, Kevin Levrone, Dorian Yates, or even Mariusz do 40 reps with 405?stone cold you big bullshiter you....
Man to be hoenst, I do not know if a human quad muscle could possibly hold the lactic acid that would build up during this. I am constantly surprised by what the human body is capable of though, so I would never sya it was impossible...improbable, yes, impossible, no...a wrestler who needs to be training for other things...complete and utter BS.
exactly, watching Platz do 23 with 495 i think that MAYBE Tom at his peak could have gotten 35 or so with it.
There is other good examples out there...look at the NFL combine. The record for benching 225 is like 40...42 I think...but the guy wieghed like 350 pounds who did it. At that ratio the guy who could squat 405 for 40 would have to weigh like 600 lbs. =P
The sad thing was it wasn't in an ad, it was an interview, which I take as a bit more credible.Here's what his workout would look likeSquat135 X 20 reps225 X 20 reps315 X 40 reps405 X 40 reps315 X 40 repsRIDICULOUS!!!For perspecitve, here's Steve Kuclo doing 405lbs for 20 reps:
