My last set on the leg press is 720lbs + the weight of the sled and that is for no less than 5 reps, but usually 8. My reps also go to where my knees almost touch my shoulder...no sissy half-reps.
My most weight was on a calf machine about 10yrs ago, and I routinely did 950lbs on my last set for as many reps as I could muster, which was usually about 5-7. I don't know if the calf machine was entirely accurate, since that seems like alot of weight to me...but then, my legs are like oak trees, so who knows? |

Never really did much leg press. Have squatted and deadlifted over 600 in competition in the 181 and 198 lb classes as a teen. Clean and jerked 315 when I was 25.
With respect,
Sohan

I bench pressed my own body weight but that was way back before pledging....225 at 20 years old....I want to to get back to the level but on an incline press. I need to lift 205 at 24 to do this.

This is one of my favorite powerlifters, Dennis Cieri. He shows that size and amazing strength are not necessarily the same thing. In person he looks like a regular guy, a little on the muscular side, but you'd never think he could bench over 600 lbs.

You can also do a Google image search of him and see more pics. He's strong looking, but nothing overly exceptional.
I would, however, like to give him a couple of years of MMA training and then put him in the UFC at 185.
With respect,
Sohan
