ok first of all ass to grass or not 455 is weak for your stats. leg press aint shit dont come in here tryin to tell me about a leg press cause legs press isnt even a top 10 kings of excersies. squats, deads, cleans,lunges etcs are all by far greater movements. second of all if your gonna compare those 1000+bench presses to a fukin squat you have just lost any fukin crediblity you have. do you see those shirts the guys wear for that shit?? a bench press shirt is alot more effective then a squat suit.
the world record RAW bechpress (YES RAW YOU FUKIN MORON) IS in the 700's
the wrold record raw squat is in the 900's
so you see the difference?? legs are supposed to be the strongest muscle in your body, and by far that is..
so stop making excuses for yourself i dont care about some pussy ass leg press an neither do real weightlifters unlike yourself, sorry but true.
man the fuk up stop bein a b1tc squat and deadlift more, i wouldnt be suprised if you actually didnt even do these movements anymore. stupid fuk.
Lets take another step back shall we.
You are inherantly angry and jealous for whatever reason - stop being so insecure...I'm here to help everyone, even you if that's what you wanted. However, coming across to me and saying things like this makes you out to be a bigger and bigger moron.
Legs are the LARGEST and strongest muscle in the human body...however, where you fail to read or comprehend is that ass-to-floor squats which is not the required squat for setting records (only 90 degree breach is required) - put a LOT of stress on the knees. I simply WILL NOT squat more than 455 for simple measure of not wanting to damage my knees - any professional in the sport knows when to call it quits. I can bench press more than I can squat because my elbows don't suffer as a result (I have naturally resilient elbows....but weaker knees - probably from catching in baseball for several years).
Anyway, you say Leg press isn't even on the top 10 exercises? I beg to differ...and so does nearly any bodybuilder or powerlifter with a brain.
If you were to take any TWO exercises for each muscle group here's what you'd have.
Chest - Bench Press, Dumbbell Press
Back - Deadlift, Rows
Shoulders - Military Press, Standing Barbell Press (clean and press, or snatch and press are both acceptable for this)
Biceps - Standing Olympic Bar Curl, Preacher curl
Triceps - Close-Grip-Bench, Skullcrushers
LEGS - Squats, Leg Press
You say lunges are more important and more noteworthy than squats? Where did you learn to lift? From John Basedow and his Fitness Made Easy videos? (no offense to john or his workouts, he's a millionaire from those)
I have nothing against lunges - as a matter of fact I do them semi-regularly as a warm up to my legs routine. However, by you saying lunges have more impact or credance than legpress makes you horribly mistaken....that's like you saying that cable flies for chest are more important than bench press.
Please take your horrible attempts to sully my reputation elsewhere. You are a sad excuse for a human being, who probably gets mad when he sees people that have achieved more in several years than he can in his entire life. I recommend you change your attitude, or later in life, you will have no one but yourself to look to.
PS -
your 1.75 equation doesn't even compare to raw bench vs raw squat.
Raw bench record (Scott Mendelson) - 715 lbs
Raw squat record (Don Reinhoudt) - 934.5 lbs
thats a ratio of 1.3
a ratio of 1.75 would be 1251.25 raw squat...which has never been achieved raw (as far as records go).
So anyway...continue being a nuisance to everyone on here, and continue to get slammed for it - you're only proving my point further than you are a total waste of space who's obviously insecure, depressed, and has to find reasons to throw his self-hatred at others.
