that is an article on a 295lb college level american footballer. he can squat 500lbs. he has obviously been strength training for more than 2 years, without the disadvantage of a back injury. he has NFL aspirations. i assume he weighs close to 100lbs more than you, and doesnt spend as much time as you did doing catabolic activities (such as badminton)
quotation from the article:
Quote:
Osborne said he split his time this summer between writing computer code for the website and working in the weight room to add muscle. His bench press is 375 pounds and his squat is 500 pounds, he said. Hortiz said 500-pound squats are good even by NFL standards, though the benchmark for bench presses is about 400 pounds.
look up more american football squat information. even the most elite squatters there are squatting around 700lbs, and most of the big guys are squatting less than 600. there are plenty of nfl players who cannot squat 500. this is in a sport than selects for strength, with players who all have presumably been squatting 5 years plus and have elite genetics.
now can you see why claiming to squat 500lbs only 2 years after being injured so badly you struggled to carry a backpack and playing badminton, a catabolic sport where being too big disadvantages you, is an outrageous claim?
