Super Freaky Ty Young Squats 800lbs!

"it works for him"

Well pin heads, this thread wasn't about his development, it was about his high poundage squat! The people with brains in this thread such as myself simply stated that those were no where near a real "squat".

Stop giving bodybuilders a bad name and use your noggins.

You said he wasn't doing "proper reps" , and since he is a bodybuilder I'd assume you mean he isn't doing reps that are conducive to building maximum size . I would think the guy in the video doesn't care what ROM he is using or what is "proper" . He isn't video taping the lifts in an effort to display a legal lift in powerlifting , therefore your statement is moot. Now quit giving Canadians a bad name and pay attention.

he is a bloated mess who will tear half the major muscles in his body by the time hes 30.

Here is the bloated mess you speak of. Not the prettiest build out there but he's very young. You may be right about the injuries though.

Parallel to WHAT? The guy's legs that was spotting him? lol

Hahaha, solid and fair call!

He's a bodybuilder, so growths all that matters, and there's no argument that its working for him.

That young boy is strong as hell! That's a lot of weight to squat high bar.

[Voland]

He looks like 35 easy.
Big lifts but his physique on stage is mediocre.
Use lighter weights and proper form.

WTF! U call that a squat?LOL, Take that f*ckin weight off and get to work!
STUPID!!!!!!!!!!

Bro I would like to see you get under a bar and squat that raw, yeah that wasn't fully parrellel but that shit was impressive none the less

[crashcrew56]

Powerlifting is by top of knee to hip joint. Not anywhere close to a legal squat in a powerlifting fed, and definitely not a full ROM squat

Not putting the guy down. That's a ton of weight especially at his age. Would be cool to see what he can do for a competition squat.

Maybe he should look into powerlifting, put him in some briefs and a suit and he'll be squating a thousand in no time

[MRT]

Honestly, half the weight, and do proper reps.

Man you should train him he looks like he could do with some advice from a guy like you

Way to think positive...

Amen!

What's everybody's problem? He's a young kid, strong as hell and pretty big too.
So what if he doesn't use textbook form? Has he claimed to do so? No matter if those squats are half, one third or even just quarter of the full ROM they are heavy as shit and he's lifting it - and obviously he has gained some considerable size. Whether or not he will become bloated and ugly has little to do with the weights he's lifting...

[gtj220]

He is crazy strong but I do foresee some joint issues in his future ( my hip bothers my from lots of heavy squats) I would say lighten up if only for longevitys sake his form doesn't look sloppy though.

[rinse]

Impressive lifts... The squats looked parallel to me... He ain't the Big Nasty.

Wow you must be blind or don't know shit about what a proper squat looks like. Those were half squats.

[Sandpig]

His methods and his form clearly works for him. What works for this guy may not work for everyone. As it stands , his legs are some of the biggest in bodybuilding. Coleman has loose form on some lifts and anyone who says he isn't doing it right is an idiot.
It is only pertinent to critique form when the lifter actually has a lagging muscle group or build. It's fine to tell some of your clients to scale back the weight but they also don't have 34 inch quads.

Agreed.
One thing I've noticed on vids and in person, almost all the huge guys use what would be called, sloppy form or partial reps.
Maybe it's not a coincidence?
