New LSU offensive guard Damien Lewis met with the media on Tuesday and many local reporters took notice of his huge arms, which led to questions about how much he could bench and squat, along with how many pushups he could do without rest.

His answer? 80, which is pretty crazy for a 320-pound offensive lineman.

Lewis transferred to LSU this offseason after spending time at Northwest Mississippi JUCO in Senatobia, MS.

Head coach Ed Orgeron has complimented Lewis' play many times throughout Spring Practice, suggesting that he could play immediately for the Tigers.

Look how wide he is at the hips. Jackie Sherill once said he judged good OL on how wide they looked in their down stance

Being retired military and now a Private Military Contractor I have stayed in great shape. Used to crank out 100 pushups and 100 situps before running a 1.5 mile run. We had 2 minutes to do as many pushups as possible. Many did the max of 100, but I saw guys that could easily crank out 200 to 300 with ease. But a big man at 320 doing 80 without stopping is impressive. Long arms and all it is much harder I think.

I feel like you’re lying. Currently in the Army and I’ve never seen someone knockout 200 or 300 push-ups muchless without ease. Rarely do I see someone even get into the 70s or 80s in push-ups. And I’m not really sure what branch has a max of 100 push-ups but I’m positive the Army does not, it’s actually 71 for a 100 score on the APFT pushup section.

And he will only get stronger

In the military we had push-up competitions for 120 seconds. I could, along with several others, bust out 100+ in those 2 minutes. BUT none of us weighed over 180lbs. 320lbs with long arms? That guy is a beast! And will need that strength to hold off DLmen!
