Dude was squatting at the gym, I guess his patellar tendon wasn't too strong. It fucking PULLED off his bone! You read it right, that bigass tendon that's behind your kneecap that attaches down to your shin bone..pulled off his goddamn shin bone. Golgi Organ anyone?

It was so dirty, he was squatting 315 and you just hear him scream like a little girl and the weight slam onto the safety bars. I was all the way across the gym, a trainer went over and then like flipped her shit.

Dude was only like 165 lbs, he was tiny. He had horrible form too, and I didn't see him do any warmup sets.

Noob trying to look cool I guess. He got about 5-6 degrees out from parallel when it happened.

what do you guys consider a complete rep? see at football workouts, we go down to 5 or 6 risers, which is, maybe a little more than a foot and a half off the ground? for some people, its past a 90 degree angle. we do a two rep max for test days.

anyway, anyone remember this? (embed and link wont work, sorry)

It all depends, the more serious you are..the lower you generally go. Mutley hockey players in my grade have like a 2 foot range of motion, and suck ass because of it.


I generally do box squats, and my box is 16 inches off the ground.

I did that in Rugby, just with the guy's thigh bone. I tackled him, it turned into a ruck. He started screaming, and when I got up his thigh was bent at like a 45 degree angle half way down.

Squats and hang cleans scare the fuck out of me. I'm always afraid that I'm gonna blow a knew out sideways. I have a thing about knees... :(

Nah it'd be pointless to max anyways, I haven't worked legs in so long since I didn't want them to be sore in the fall and I skied in the winter. I'd be surprised if I could put up even 275 nowadays hahah

yeah, i used to have good range of motion and did box squats, but now i have a FAI (a growth on my femur pinching my labrum) and it hurts like shit to go below 90 with basically any weight. sucks pretty bad. box squats do cause a lot of unneeded tension on the knees so its just as well that im not doing them.

Are you talking about straight squats? If not, that's a bit weak man. I do the sitting leg press(no idea what it's called) and on the last set, my buddy and I put up either 700 or 800 for ten reps. And I'm pretty sure that's about average for someone who does a sport that requires leg strength.

I've seen this happen with a biceps tendon, the entire muscle rolled up into a ball and the skin was sagging down so you could see the bone...it was one of the grossest thing I've ever seen, I can't imagine what what it would look like to see it with the petela tendon.

i don't really ever work with heavy weights, i just focus on cardio and core strength and since i do crew pulling on an oar all day does plenty for my upper body strength

this made me puke

Im a little drunk and I just smoked a bowl and was getting ready to eat a cadbury cream egg and I clicked on this god foresaken thread, started sweating my balls off, laid down on my floor bc I felt light headed and knew I was about to pass out, then had to sprint to the bathroom and I puked like crazy, I was gonna take a pic for the pics or it didnt happen but nobody wants to see that. I'm now sitting here sweating my balls off and trembling but I feel fine idk what the fuck that was

Different movement fucktard.



I can leg press like 900, it's really a retarded exercise. Ronnie Coleman can do 2300 10 times, squats are about 10x better of an exercise.

Au contraire mon frere, when done properly box squats put less tension on your knees than regular squats.

yea, like I said I haven't worked my legs in forever, so my squat is pretty puny. I'm only 5'9 165 though

and to quote the great joe defranco "put that leg press machine on your back and tell me how many times you can squat it, then i'll be impressed"
