Mate said he heard this on the radio. World class cyclists must have strong/powerful legs, but that's some weight that many advanced gear fueled lifters cant even lift. That would be a total of 35 x 20kg plates on the machine.... I think that's b0llocks.
Chris Hoy - Leg Press 700 kg ? I have read that it's a partial. However, it proves the arrogance of our sport to think that a "mere" cyclist couldn't out leg press a 20stone BB. One of the BMX lads could squat 245, deep!
Chris Hoy - Leg Press 700 kg ? Here...I can press 500k and Chris's legs are bigger than mine so guess again...
Chris Hoy - Leg Press 700 kg ? 700lbs... most lads in my gym can do that for reps... me included and my legs ate shite lol I don't doubt for a moment he could do it.
Chris Hoy - Leg Press 700 kg ? Yea i mentioned that is he not sure it's lbs. He said it was definitely kg. I'm not totally ignorant to this. It's just a hard one to believe. Also with the addition that were led to believe they are totally natural.
Chris Hoy - Leg Press 700 kg ? To be fair ... he trains for leg strength/power output. With the resources he has behind him and the time he has to train who are we non-Olympians to criticise?
