That's awesome. Over 1200lbs. squat. That is just unreal.

What's scary is that that's only just above twice his bodyweight...

Does he really weigh over 500lbs!?!?!?!?
I say a site that said 525lbs. That is nuts!

Don't know what he weighed in at, but he has recently weighed over 550 lbs. The man looks like a giant egg.

Lewis is roughly 6'6" and weighs in the vicinity of 550, yeah. He makes huge men look tiny. He also makes the barbell itself look like a plastic weight set.

Okay, when you hit 50% bodyfat, you need to draw the line. I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but it is just downright unhealthy to be obese.

I'd agree, but... he just squatted 1202 pounds. And you know the kind of training it would take to get to that. So I've got a feeling he's not going to plop over any day now.

Looking at that second picture he has the largest belly I have ever seen. It looks as if he only has to move the barbell 5" for it to be a rep.

Make no mistake though, that is an insane squat. I'm just saying he should lose a pound or 200.

His belt is longer than Ed Coan is tall.
I'm not making that up, a photograph exists of Ed holding Jeff's belt and it's taller than he is. I wish I could get a hold of it, though.

I'm not taking anything away from the guys strength. He is unbeleiveable, it doesn't seem the least healthy to be that large.

Dr. Squat was the first to officially squat a grand, and he had great cardio health. You really don't have to pick between strength and health, they go together fine. So I don't know why some lifters let their weight get so out of control.

On the squat? Nope, doesn't work that way. They look at the top of the knee and the curve of the hip. Bench, sure, but bein' fat on the squat and dead helps with leverage, not limiting ROM.

He can't really be all that unhealthy if he squated over 1200lbs. Did anyone think that maybe he is strongest at that weight.
