re: Are you stronger than a college safety?

Really, he only did 9 times? I probably couldn't now but I could when I was in HS. Regardless I'd trade my superior benching at 18 with his athletic career in a heartbeat.

true, i believe most people are at least partially over estimating there strength.
however, not being able to bounce the shite (ridiculous how they let them bounce bench presses like that) out of 225 more than 9 times is embarassing for someone who is a professional athlete, weighs 230 lbs, and has been training specifically for it for the past two months.
and yes, i can bench much more than 225x9. and no, that does not mean that i think i am a better athlete than chad jones. it means i can bench more than 225x9

just because they have him listed at only 9 reps doesnt mean he ONLY did 9 reps. If the form is correct then that rep will not be counted so CJ couldve done more than just 9 but didnt have the correct form on some. If I remember correctly Laron Landry had some reps that werent counted due to bad form or not locking it out at the top....but this is just my .02

Ask this to the OT. Everyone there can probably bench 225 30 times using just their left hand

OTers can do 15 reps at 225lbs while pihb

When I was his age I weighed 140lbs. and could bench 225 8 times with no spotter...but Jones is a much better athlete than all of us...but those Jones boys seem to have a bit of an ego that needs to be adjusted...

Apparently I would have been yesterday.

I am 6'1 228 and could prolly do 15 reps but I am 41 years old.

When I was 16 I weighed 235 and could max 365 on the bench. I could probably have gotten close to nine on 225 then. That was with a shitty high school football team that had a weight room that would make a prison yard look like LSU's facility.
CJ has had awesome facilities to work with for three years. He has had much more opportunity for an excellent weight program than anyone posting here.
It is not a stretch for someone to say they are surprised that he could "only" do it 9 times.
PS, I have a normal sized penis, I make a decent living, I drive a Rodeo.

Well i might as well join this pissing contest as well, weigh about 180 and can get 12 reps. Plus CJ is fat

LSU could have used you for a safety.

Doubt it. The fastest 40 time I ever recorded was 5.1.

what comedy if they would let some of these fans on the field with those guys. i would love to see them go across the middle and take a shot from jones.

lol at the bullshite in this thread.
im about 205lbs, 26 yrs old, lift weights regularly and can hit 12 reps at 225.
chad jones should be able to do that too if he weighs more than me.
