@Bigmikey9inch well, its powerlifting. its his hobby. and its fun to lift weights and get strong. he wants to be the best. thats why you gotta squat that much!
White lights judge if the lift is good. Rules depend on the federation they are in for the competition. If they don't break any rules that the federation has, lift is good hence white lights. If the lift is bad, red lights. Three judges, three lights. rules are usually like they have to go below a certain depth in the squat and its always seems u have to be at or you have to break parallel in the squat.
For warmups, I hope he still starts at a plate or 2 and works up from there. I still start at 1 plate, even though I work with 600+. 10 reps each at 1, 2, 3, and 4 plates before belting upand doing some work :)
@syourist OOO my apologizes you are correct. You did say it before donnie broke the record. My apologizes. I think that is a first on youtube somebody apologizing lol.
@reptalix1 I swear, if you would look at the date I stated that you would see that I made this comment like a week before Donnie T did the 1260. Also If you would look ohh 3 lines down you would notice this same comment already made.
@CenaPaulandSeth I'll record it. And put it up on YouTube. I'm going to State this weekend. Kansas 5A State Powerlifting. The competition is Saturday. The video should be up Sunday.. How bout you keep your mouth shut before you go talking shit?
Damn.. this is crazy. I'm a freshman in high school and can do 520 right now. No belts, no squat suits or ANYTHING... I wonder what I'll be able to do in about 3 years..
@jusbekos honestly if you dont lift with a belt now and your squating 520 your going to kill your self... mainly your back and it depends if your getting down all the way, is it an athletic squat or a powerlifting squat. athletic is where u just reach parallel and powerlifting squat is below that.
Look up Pat Mendes (or however you spell his last name) squatting 800 lbs raw. It won't kill you if you have a strong enough back, and that's a hoss of a dude too.
Not trying to put you down, but it could be a form problem too. I've hurt my back trying weight with bad form. Did I get it? Yeah, but the form got me injured. Once you get the form just right, it won't happen, because if you lift heavy on a good basis, you'd know this without me telling you anyway. Good luck lifting!
What was that? You people call this fraud squat.? I wanna cry and smile in the same time. Stands 100 feet wide, 67 layer squat suit and 4 inch movement. What a joke. This guy raw max is around 380 pounds in good day.
@m5p944 3....380? Nobody else in the entire world has ever been able to squat 1250 pounds, no matter what suit they wore, and you think his raw max is 380?
@m5p944 hahahahahahahahahahah omg wow. his actual raw squat is about 850-900 and its on youtube dumbfuck, you have absolutely no idea how strong this guy is. haha wow your stupid ass made my day.
@m5p944 That guy you are ripping on eats about 380 pounds for breakfast. And hes wearing an Inzer Leviathan, the best squat suit around, and its only 2 layers and they are thin.
I'd like to even see you squat even anywhere close to half of what that weight was.
@m5p944 Looks like hes wearing 1 suit, tshirt, and shorts... Your a fuckin goof. Go video tape yourself attempting 1000+ so we can all see you get snapped in half. Rid this world of another idiot.
@JaKeth3snake Your fucking goof. You also forget to mention belt size of truck tire and 3 miles long knee wraps. Just look at this sumo barerly parallel half ass shit good mornings. This isn't squat. Put your feet 2 feet wide, get all the way down, stop on the bottom, count til two and than go all the way up. Just like Tom Platz 500 for 23 reps, Brozknows with 800(no wraps,belt,suit, no nothing) or any olympic weghtlifter. This is just ridiculous fake of someone who would struggle with 350.
@m5p944 what the hell are you talking about. I dont recall platz sitting at the bottom for a count of 2. also I dont recall a rule that states you have to put your feet shoulder width apart. you know nothing.
@syourist Have you see the difference between this fake and Tom Platz squat or any oly weightlifter? I hope youre eyes are OK.
BTW. you're right ther's no rule that states you have to put yor feet shoulder width apart. But hey man it should, period!!! I have always wondered why if they have a rule on 32" grip on the bench, why don't they set a limit on foot stance for both squat and deadlift. The same goes for sumo deads. I don't see how it is much of a lift either.
@m5p944 yes, there is a difference but you have to remember that and oly squat is different. the reason they train their squat so low is because they have to get that low when they are doing there oly lifts. there is rules on depth in powerlifting and on that day to those judges he passed what the rules state. If you dont like the fact that people go wider than you think, then you should attend a meeting and get a new rule passed. Also I completely disagree with your thought on sumo deadlifting.
Why do you not believe that is much of a lift? A small handful of people have ever gone over 900 using sumo. While conventional pullers are sitting in the high 900's to Bolton's 1008 pull
@syourist Those words come out of Pat Casey's mouth back in november 2000. Those are statements from real raw powerlifter who has been called"king of the powerlifters".
The only way sumo deadlift should be allowed on any meet is because of female lifters. What the powerlifters going to use next time? Pallet jacks?
No benchpress bras, no wrist, elbow or knee wraps, no belt, no power pants, no squat or deadlift suit and so on. Just pure power. Don't you wanna have those times back?
@m5p944 well then why dont we take it all the way back. the first squats were done with the bar on the floor you picked it up put it on your shoulders and squatted it. You have to remember something all sports advance. I like to compare powerlifting to drag racing they have different classes one that is just motor then another with power adders like nitrous or supercharging or turbo. those methods are of artificial means of gaining horsepower. Well powerlifting is the same you have raw and geard
@HatePerfect Umm dude who cares lets see a video come from you where you can top this that's like saying chuck Norris doesn't exist its just ridiculous
thats amazing, i struggle at squats so could only imagine the horrible injury id get squating this, probably break every bone in my body, aswell as tear all the muscles in my leg
@13andincrediblycut Do you realize how ridiculous that sounds? and do you realize that would be a world record??? Very doubtful. You could always make a video though and prove me worng.
@13andincrediblycut Yeah I video taped the event of me killing a pack of 10 silver back gorillas with my bare hands. But there was some fog on my lens and I am having the same problem I can't seem to upload it either. I feel your pain
First, it looks like he's already in mid-squat when he takes the weight. Then doesn't get past parallel from the looks of it. Yes, he moved 1250 lbs a short distance, but in most federations, it would have been red lighted all day long.
Wow use proper form atleast. Legs are way too far apart and it looks like the weight was going to roll of his head. He bend his back so much forward and didn't even go deep. Can't really talk cause I do 500lb :D But I use proper form and I deep squat!
ya the equipment now a days has gotten out of control...but all of you should stfu cuz all of us know damn straight that nobody who criticized the man can do it themselves...how about u get up there and try it?
@tripleleap yeah well I can't, cus I don't have a FUCKING $500 SUIT to help me, lets see him do that in his f'in Calvin Kleins and then I'll be impressed. FYI, Rezazeh could probably do this and rerack like a gentlemanin a goddmaned pair of sox and nothing else. There's a reason PL is a joke, and this is it.
This sad spectacle is the reason no one takes powerlifting seriously. All that equipment that gives a mechanical advantage, the very low ROM. . . just sad.
Yes the suit does add alot, but he's still getting under 1250 and taking it to depth, could he do it raw? No, but the number of people in the world who could even UNRACK 1250 is a handful of very yeti-ish men. I don't go in for geared lifting but I respect the desire to throw more plates on the bar and the courage to get under it every time.
Are you kidding me? What kind of suit do you use? The suit this guy is wearing adds 300-400 pounds onto the squat of pretty much every heavyweight that uses it. Donne Thompson squatted 825 RAW in a contest and then does 1235 with one of these on? far more than 100 my friend. I think it's still impressive, but squat suits have gotten out of control.
@cyberkai99 maybe he's talking about single ply? Judging by the depth of this squat, monolift, and the white lights of a good lift, its probably at a meet that allows multi-plys. and you're right, suits have gotten out of control
@cyberkai99 They do add a ton, for sure----however, he IS the record holder, others have access to the same equipment, but they haven't squatted this grotesque amt of weight
I'm not saying that I don't respect geared lifting because most of ym favorite lifters are all in some type of gear, but to say that a multi-ply canvas suit only adds 100 pounds is insane. The briefs he's wearing beneath his suit probably adds 150 pounds with wraps.
Yes. There are about 3-4 people to have registered a 950+ RAW squat and some russian guy did 975 with probably 1000 in the tank, but hasn't done it in competition.
@cyberkai99 i lift at a gym with 3 1000lb squatters, and 3 900lb squatters, and an 1100lb squatter. NONE of us get 300 lbs from a suit, one of us gets 280 (he weighs 220), and he lifts in an inzer canvas, just like Vlads, with predator briefs and knee wraps. youre saying 300-400 to prove your point. This is simply inaccurate and not reality!
@cyberkai99 the suits have gotten crazy i will agree (thats why i lift in 2 ply or less in IPA) but a lot of the poundage comes from the suit keeping people from bending over forward (core stability) because if the lower back and abs are taken out of the equation theoretically everyone can squat what they leg press and i know a lot of people who can do a true leg press with 1000 or more.
I'm not trying to disrespect, brother. I love powerlifting in every form and I give mad props to those who lift without the aid of suits and shirts, but I also give props to the men who are willing to put 1100+ on their backs and 800+ in their hands. Believe me, bud, if you lift in the IPA and have the testicular fortitude to put on a suit and try and squat 800-900+, I have more respect for you then you'll ever know. Keep it heavy, man. Remember, go heavy or go home!
The depth doesn't matter in competition. He may have gone below parallel with 870 and got it passed, but he also squatted 1235 high as a damn kite and got it passed. So, in competition, his suit gives him a 365 pound gain. I don't believe my numbers are way off. Because even if he squatted to parallel in a suit, he'd still be getting 300 pounds or close to it out of his suit.
@cyberkai99 of course the depth matters in competition. if he squatted raw with the same depth as he did suited he'd probably get another 30-40 pounds. besides, you're not considering what happens when you get used to training either raw or suited. you can't train raw your entire life and put on a multiply and get an extra 300 pounds. you have to accustom your body to the pressure. the same thing happens with a suit, you get used to not having to stabilizing the weight an your raw squat suffers
Perhaps you don't see it how everyone else does. Whatever is passed in competition, is law. He gets (according to the feds he competes in) 365 pounds added onto his squat. You're right that it takes lots of practice in gear to get used to it and get those gains, but the reality of it is, you CAN get 300-400 pounds out of your suit. And Donnie is one of them that does.
Impressive but tell me why the hell u would need to be able to squat that much

Wow use proper form atleast. Legs are way too far apart and it looks like the weight was going to roll of his head. He bend his back so much forward and didn't even go deep. Can't really talk cause I do 500lb :D But I use proper form and I deep squat!

totally fucking DQ -double bump- if he was some poor skinny kid banging 300, the judge would have nailed him.
this was
"NO LIFT"
obvious to anyone with a eyes and a brain. this is why powerlifting will not,and should not, reach the Olympics- you all are corrupt.

@willfullyobscure when you can put 1250pounds on your back and squat down you can start talking, or else get the fuck out.

@tripleleap yeah well I can't, cus I don't have a FUCKING $500 SUIT to help me, lets see him do that in his f'in Calvin Kleins and then I'll be impressed. FYI, Rezazeh could probably do this and rerack like a gentlemanin a goddmaned pair of sox and nothing else. There's a reason PL is a joke, and this is it.
willfullyobscure 1 year ago
@willfullyobscure even without the suit he can squat over 800, can you? probably not.

This sad spectacle is the reason no one takes powerlifting seriously. All that equipment that gives a mechanical advantage, the very low ROM. . . just sad.

hotdude23 1 year ago
Yes the suit does add alot, but he's still getting under 1250 and taking it to depth, could he do it raw? No, but the number of people in the world who could even UNRACK 1250 is a handful of very yeti-ish men. I don't go in for geared lifting but I respect the desire to throw more plates on the bar and the courage to get under it every time.

@LiveforIron Yeah there are...it's called a squat suit, knee wraps. It will easily put 100lbs on if they fit right
SteviGX 2 years ago
Are you kidding me? What kind of suit do you use? The suit this guy is wearing adds 300-400 pounds onto the squat of pretty much every heavyweight that uses it. Donne Thompson squatted 825 RAW in a contest and then does 1235 with one of these on? far more than 100 my friend. I think it's still impressive, but squat suits have gotten out of control.

i don't care how much it adds...because he's OBVIOUSLY taking his physical potential to the max here...it's not like he's holding back here...
worldwarcom 2 years ago 4
@cyberkai99 maybe he's talking about single ply? Judging by the depth of this squat, monolift, and the white lights of a good lift, its probably at a meet that allows multi-plys. and you're right, suits have gotten out of control
dufus321 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 They do add a ton, for sure----however, he IS the record holder, others have access to the same equipment, but they haven't squatted this grotesque amt of weight
NWpowerhouse85 1 year ago
I'm not saying that I don't respect geared lifting because most of ym favorite lifters are all in some type of gear, but to say that a multi-ply canvas suit only adds 100 pounds is insane. The briefs he's wearing beneath his suit probably adds 150 pounds with wraps.
cyberkai99 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 Oh, I'll wholeheartedly agree there, anyone who thinks they add a "mere" 100lbs, has their wires crossed..
Actually, are there any documented raw lifts of anyone raw-squatting even "just" 900lbs? I'm not sure..
NWpowerhouse85 1 year ago
Yes. There are about 3-4 people to have registered a 950+ RAW squat and some russian guy did 975 with probably 1000 in the tank, but hasn't done it in competition.
cyberkai99 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 Wikipedia said that Mark Henry has the raw record of 950~, but there are no videos of it anywhere, so idk

@cyberkai99 i lift at a gym with 3 1000lb squatters, and 3 900lb squatters, and an 1100lb squatter. NONE of us get 300 lbs from a suit, one of us gets 280 (he weighs 220), and he lifts in an inzer canvas, just like Vlads, with predator briefs and knee wraps. youre saying 300-400 to prove your point. This is simply inaccurate and not reality!

natedagr808 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 the suits have gotten crazy i will agree (thats why i lift in 2 ply or less in IPA) but a lot of the poundage comes from the suit keeping people from bending over forward (core stability) because if the lower back and abs are taken out of the equation theoretically everyone can squat what they leg press and i know a lot of people who can do a true leg press with 1000 or more.
beerecan1227 1 year ago
I'm not trying to disrespect, brother. I love powerlifting in every form and I give mad props to those who lift without the aid of suits and shirts, but I also give props to the men who are willing to put 1100+ on their backs and 800+ in their hands. Believe me, bud, if you lift in the IPA and have the testicular fortitude to put on a suit and try and squat 800-900+, I have more respect for you then you'll ever know. Keep it heavy, man. Remember, go heavy or go home!

beerecan1227 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 uh, donnie thompson got 870 raw and went well below parallel. much deeper than any of his 1200+ suited squats. your numbers are way off
bretchet23 1 year ago
The depth doesn't matter in competition. He may have gone below parallel with 870 and got it passed, but he also squatted 1235 high as a damn kite and got it passed. So, in competition, his suit gives him a 365 pound gain. I don't believe my numbers are way off. Because even if he squatted to parallel in a suit, he'd still be getting 300 pounds or close to it out of his suit.
cyberkai99 1 year ago
@cyberkai99 of course the depth matters in competition. if he squatted raw with the same depth as he did suited he'd probably get another 30-40 pounds. besides, you're not considering what happens when you get used to training either raw or suited. you can't train raw your entire life and put on a multiply and get an extra 300 pounds. you have to accustom your body to the pressure. the same thing happens with a suit, you get used to not having to stabilizing the weight an your raw squat suffers
bretchet23 1 year ago
@bretchet23 finally someone with some brains thank you
syourist 1 year ago
Perhaps you don't see it how everyone else does. Whatever is passed in competition, is law. He gets (according to the feds he competes in) 365 pounds added onto his squat. You're right that it takes lots of practice in gear to get used to it and get those gains, but the reality of it is, you CAN get 300-400 pounds out of your suit. And Donnie is one of them that does.
