High school kid squats 1025lbs

Damn, he plays football, too? I'd hate to be a QB or receiver and see that monster charging at me.

The lift was impressive as hell. Kid's definitely going places.
 
I been watching a few of his utube vids and the kid is STRONG. He did a 700lb squat at 15 yrs old? What was Andre Malanichev's squat? 1050? Hes what? In his forties? This kid is 18 and just did 1005!

Gotta think he is natural. Who wouldnt want a 1000 lb squat as a NATTY?!?!

Genetic freak in the strength department. Wonder what he'll be capable of in a decade.
 
It's hard to compare an equipped squat vs a raw squat.
I just revisited the Andre vid. He uses just wraps but it appears he has a suite on. Hard to tell. They reported the lift as just wraps tho.

Pena is a single ply lifter. So i understand they are not the same thing. But Pena's genetic limit seems very high. I wonder if he trains for another 2 decades if it might be possible to do a 1500lb squat!!! The kid is just a baby...but you know on the other hand PL doesnt pay. If he can get a big NFL contract hed be much better off.

Andre squats raw with sleeves and a belt. I know what you're saying though. This kid, given the right mentoring, hard work, and freedom from injuries, does have serious potential to go beyond Andre should he ever squat raw.
