John Cena lifting

I don't normally post stuff like this but I saw this video on Marunde's forum and was impressed with how John Cena lifts weights. The video shows squats, deadlifts, pull-ups, among other things.

fixed

 

OMG! His chest didn't touch the bar when he was doing pull-ups!

 

I came here prepared to flamethrower everywhere, but actually I'm quite impressed.

 

5 plates atg? was that right on my count? 495

"deadlifts a hard lift that noone likes to do"

benchpress: everyone likes to be meatheads "how much do you bench" haha

Roids + heavy compounds ftw nice to see a proper workout from a roid'd dude however, not these Iron Mag shite with 20 sets of arms ala ronnie coleman.

 

It is really nice to see someone so famous doing some real lifts with real weight. Even if he is on the juice, it can't hurt the cause having him squatting below parallel and deadlifting.

 

Those are some very respectable numbers. He was doing all that shit for reps.

 

Have you seen any Ronnie Coleman workout videos?

 

I hope you know that Ronnie Coleman doesn't actually do those workouts they say he does in the magazine. Saying a big time pro does a certain routine is just a magazine's way of trying legitimatize their bullshit.

BTW, nice video, OP. I enjoy seeing genetically gifted people that capitalize on their potential.

 

Cool to see him doing those routines. He's got some damn huge friggin arms. Look like hammers.

wow great video, is this new or old? Hopefully alot of people will see that and start squatting, but not at my gym because theres only 1 rack and I dont like waiting

 

I just did ATG squats today and if i had that much weight on my back i'd snap in half.

 

Hahahahahaha true i prefer no one care about squats or they think they are not safe to do without a smith machine.

Squat rack is usually the one spot you can always rely on to be empty in the gym.

 

I'm not sure, it was uploaded to Youtube on December 30th, '07.

 

Its old and has been posted on this exact forum before...

still good vid tho

 

QFT. I was about to flame, but that was actually good. War Cena.

 

I searched for Cena and didn't see it, but searching for Cena right now doesn't bring this thread up, either. Do you know if this aired on TV?

 

can anyone elaborate on the chains?

 

As the bar goes up, the chain comes off the floor and increases the load you are lifting. It's called accommodating resistance.

 

oh, nice. damn that would suck. thank you.
