I have a buddy that could rep 385 9 times in 3 sets, I used to go with him just to watch the reaction of the other lifters Legions size, they'd split almost right away , Don is 5'5" and weighs about 137 lbs, sounds like BS I know but I saw it. When I told him that he was breaking the world and olympic records for his weight class everytime he went to the gym and that he could have had money and chicks ( all he's ever wanted ) and been paid to train he almost cried, He's in his 50's now and doesn't go over about 290 cause of a shoulder injury, not from lifting. He'd do his first set at 285 and I would do mine with the bar alone everytime I went to the gym with him I would end up putting on more weight for him and taking it off for me than I would ever lift during my work out. It was amazing to see and pound for pound the strongest guy I've ever met
