Obviously extremely strong but it doesn't look like he got close to parallel... I don't think that would be a successful lift at a powerlifting meet.

Moving weight is moving weight.

Sometimes you gotta load up a bar and walk it out to get that feeling.

It’s all a journey.

Dude is a true freshman, walking 630lbs and squatting with no gear….pretty impressive.

My sons and I power lift so wearing the sleeves and gear helps tremendously to push out of parallel dispositions…he was doing natural squats.

Maybe the strength coach is instructing them to NOT go that far and chance damaging a knee.

I remember Tommy Moffitt telling the story of joe barksdale setting the lsu squat record. He broke it but had to stop him after he got up over 600lbs. Just said it www pointless to risk injury

I have seen him do 600 in a meet and I have given him green lights many times. Lufkin, Diboll and other meets

People in this thread and in the comments of that post talking about how he didn’t go all the way down/parallel… like wtf can you move over 600+lbs??

It’s damn impressive

Then it’s a good thing he is not a powerlifter.

I don't think it's just LSU fans, there's ALWAYS that one guy after watching a great lift on video that has to make himself feel better about his 185# max so he says that the pull up didn't start with 100% straight arms at the bottom or the squat being an inch from paralell etc, they're insufferable
