Look at the thickness of this guy, especially his legs.

Good read! :yesway:

I had always figured he was some old guy who couldn't squat no more so came up with his hack version. Had no idea he was a beast and had such a history, not to mention having such an influence on the bench press exercise coming about.

Can't say I've ever tried a 214lb one arm shoulder press.
