Pshhh i am so much stronger than you and i am not on steroids. I mean i weigh 220 and front squatted 275, so your just gay. P.s. i had my abdominal wall removed to make it REALLY RAW.
I love how people put their own lifting numbers...BOTTOM LINE! GOOD LIFT and way to beast up! Keep it up and smash any and every plateau that tries to put a hault on your gains!
guys just cos he is properly strong doesnt mean he is on steroids. Why does no one understand that? He has probably trained for ages so just shut the fuck up and man up a bit
agentbobbarker - The statement "100% raw only a belt" is a contradiction, right? The belt helps you do more weight. Period. Ya wanna say ya did the lift raw, don't use the belt. Powerlifting is a joke now with all of the equipment, just look at bench press shirts. Lifters are red-lighted because they COULDN'T touch the bar to their chests. If you were used to ridiculous equipment like a bench shirt then, yes a belt would seem like you were doing it raw, but the belt is still helping you.
i dont see why 500lbs would be considered steroids? whether he's on it or not - we will never know for sure, but 500lbs isnt unreachable without roids... if this guy put in hard work, ate properly and trained properly over the last few years... then that 500 lb front squat is righly deserved... he looked like he couldve done it another 4 times... awesome shit
I don't give a shit about the steroid arguement...but a 500 front squat is not something any joe can do after a few years of lifting and eating right...very few people in the world can do this. it's called genetics.
i went from back-squatting 135 to 400 in 9months for 8-10reps... i dont see why what this guy is doing isnt achievable with a few more years.... 400-500 is hard and even more so front squat... but it comes down to training and eating properly
@Cambria2007 no.. lot more than a 'few' people can do this. this is impressive no doubt, but a lot can be broken pass genetics. it's called hardwork and years of training, not genetics
no offense kid, but I watched your videos, and you have no place putting in your 2 cents about feats of strength. look up 500+ front squat vids(parallel) on the internet. you will come back with very few results.
@Cambria2007 i know for a fact more than a 'few' people in "THE WORLD" can do a front squat at 500 lbs. theres a guy in my gym who front squats 405 for 10 reps... i've never seen him max but i'm sure he can max around 500. and yes, clearly i'm not a strongman or very strong compared to many, but i do know that with hardwork and years of training, this is attainable.
Anybody who says this is steroid use is a fucking moron, I won't say it's easy to squat 500lbs but if you put your mind to lifting you will eventually get there. Back in high school the linebackers would usually squat around 550 just to put it in perspective.
I totally agree, well put, this is totally possible with hard work and training. But try not to ruin your posts with the "At high school i knew people that could do 10000lbs" I hate it when people do that
Youtube is FULL of Bull Shitters - this guy had a decent set of depth, slight knee movement but really it was fractional and therefore near-perfect form. At 15 doing 150kgs i can almost guarantee you won't be performing proper form, not to mention the front squat is much more difficult than the bog squat which is almost certainly what you're doing. Why lie? this is a goo squat.
Heh heh. Seasoned powerlifter? You mean ask a guy what raw is that wears a 'bench' shirt that won't even allow him to touch the bar to his chest? Modern powerlifting equipment has ruined powerlifting. Not trying to offend, but it's a joke now.
@dawsonmj your both right, but as for pling, some organizations say raw is only a belt and some say it's nothing, regardless, that's a big lift, nice job
watch the knees booing so inward, but great squat. To avoid that knees coming in so much don't have feet so out. This is impressive though my front squat is only 405 right now, hard exercise very demanding on the front part of legs and the core especially.
idiots like you make me laugh...just because you are undisclipined and lack the motivation it takes to reach this level you dismiss it as steroid use. BTW there are MILLIONS of steroid users you cant even dream of touching this weight...
@davadov1 for the record, i lift at the same gym as matt. I see him put in hard work for hours everyday. You obviously don't know what it takes to get to that level, so who are you to criticize. fuckin retard
nice man i can squat like 480 but when i do front squats i can barley rep 275....keep up the hard work if you want some motivation go watch some videos of Justin Harris i think he reps like 550 for 8 (front)
