From: HOU - yeah, you know the rest.
They aren't exactly lifting a lot of weight 205 and 225, that isn't even their body weight. Go watch a power lifting meet with guys weighing as much as Cushing and Watt, those guys do well over 500 lbs. What this video demonstrates is their high level of muscular endurance.
They see how many reps you can do at 225lbs (I believe it's 225).
Cushing: 30 reps
Watt: 34 reps
That's before they went to any NFL training camp.
Let's see a powerlifter do that.
youre comparing two totally different sports. powerlifters are training for 1 rep max's. these guys are doing the opposite, moderate weight till failure reps. they are both difficult, but your training style and program would cater to one or the other. the football guys are doing lifting programs with more endurance and drop sets obviously.
This is more impressive than some fat powerlifter in a bench suit.
But these guys are strong and agile, there is videos of watt jumping 55inches onto a box. That's something a power lifter couldnt do.
