um your legs have very large muscles and is capable of doing that weight. its not a lot. not even double his weight.
I'll let nikkas cook, it isn't even that big of a deal :mjlol: I know for a fact it was above 200 because I had nikkas who played sports lookin like :ehh: And I spent that entire year doing squats because my benching was pathetic as fukk..maybe I'm shorting myself on my own weight I honestly can't remember..last time I checked now I was alil over 150 so I just made a guess

But as of now I do a lot of cardio:yeshrug:

Edit: Just something else I remember, I used to SMOKE nikkas who did track back in high school and middle school. nikkaz seen me in college and wanted that run back

AGGIE PRIDE :sas2: That's it. That's all.

Out here in my damn drawls
I don't think he posted this to stunt his squat weight. Maybe he's just showing the fact that he's in the gym getting trained by Mike Rashid

Also, we don't know what type of sets he's doing. Even if 275 is feathers to some cats, it's not average and everyone has to start somewhere regardless



I know it's mostly jokes so :yeshrug:

the internet
(1) You can dump the heavy weights, and do bodyweight pistol squats...It requires MORE strength, coordination, balance, mental focus, flexibility...Overall, it is a better exercise...

You are building strength with that excess load on your knees...

When that gets easier, you can add dumbbells or kettlebells

(2) Like I said, if you are 30 and up, dump all that heavyweight training...Focus on body weight, flexibility and cardio...You don't want to be a 300LB stiff 60 year old...

First, you need some cardio to improve circulation...Soccer and basketball are great for this

Second, to build REAL strength you can do the following
Biceps - Pull ups
Triceps - Dips, variations of push-ups
Chest - Push-ups
Back - Chin-ups
Legs - Pistol squats, wall squats

Third, to maximize your range of motion you can do Yoga

If you are 30 and you do these exercises REGULARLY for 30 years (with good nutrition and rest), You will be LIGHT, strong and flexible by the time you 60...Much better to lean flexible and REAL strong, than to be 300LB of flabby muscles and stiff joints...

I worked as a physical therapist in a Nursing Home, my observation was people who were old, stiff and heavy had a decreased quality of life...
Bro im sorry, but this is all false.
Lifting weights does not make you stiff.
Most weightlifters I follow say that you should slow down around the age of 50.

Nobody here is going to be anything close to this dudes size...but I would bet he is more flexible than damn near everyone on here (and he's 45)



If you lift...and do something like Yoga...youll be straight.

Plus, Jim not serious about this shyt.
So, working out with Rashid is not a biggie to the people who are serious,....

To piggy back off your comment. If you have a issue you can pull up when Balrog is released for SFV :leostare:

you were dunking breh?:ohhh:

Nah, not because I couldn't I never really dedicated myself to any sport. I'm gifted in the ways of Art and that's where my heart was/is. If anything I would of did track or be a runningback.

Either way this thread is about to be derailed out the ass so I'm out :mjlol:

A lot of misinformation here on squatting. At Jim's age it isn't safe for him to be squatting over 100 lbs. his bodyweight without a spotter and/or a belt. The exercise is relatively safe depending on your range of motion.
