well he was never in shape. in college, he just had more mass than everyone. pretty sure he couldn't even do one 185 lbs. rep at the combine. never a good sign to be that weight and so weak heading into the pros

Good point Supreme. It reminds me of this past summer when I was finally able to break 500 pounds of squats and bench more than 370 on bench. Not that I'm bragging or anything, because I'm not. I'm just saying, the whole time I was thinking that the Lord blessed me with this superhuman strength and it would be a shame for me to waste it. I want to reiterate that this post has nothing to with that fact that Micheal Sweetney's physical accomplishments pale in comparison to the magnificence that is BIGDADDYG. I just wanted to point out how sad it is that Michael Sweetney was unable to reach his potential.

What's your height and weight.

And is this a deep barbell squat or some 3/4 **** on a smith machine?

5'10'', 218. No machines. I lift weights, I don't do virtual lifting man. Not that I'm here to brag or anything. This entire post is about Michael Sweetney's well being.

So you're one of the strongest men in the world.

I hit 240 @ 6'1" 210 the other day.

that graph says "elite" shape, not strongest men in the world.

I knew a guy in high school that we all believe to have joined the Seals. I saw him squat just under 800 once.

Elite is among the strongest in the world. Keep in my that's a deep squat, below parallel.

The guy you saw, you don't know how deep he went. It's a different ball game if you don't break parallel.

Coming up on ten years.

I did a quick search and can't believe the old posts are still available thru google.

I can't find the original "check out Sweetney's Calves" post, but this one was a classic!

It was fun back in the day. Bonn is a good sport and we all have grown up.

Even Dido is on this!

He can lose that weight in 6-9 months and be at the peak of his athleticism by the end of 2012; the sad part is that it won't happen.
