Arnold's PRs in Bench, DL & Squat

From the Pat McAfee Show:

"My best bench press was 525, my best deadlift was 710, and my best squat was 610," he said. "So those were my lifts then, but I have to say they are not at all great compared to what some of the bodybuilders and lifters are doing today, I can tell you that, because today there's guys that are squatting with 700, 800 pounds and there's guys that bench press 600 pounds."

Wasn't he squatting like 3 plates in Pumping Iron???

Anyway, Arnold most likely told numerous tall tales to make himself appear larger than life, saying **** like how he worked out for 4-6hrs a day, six days a week, and that he just did the smallest amount of "cell-tech" possible.

Yeah they were doing 3 plates in one scene. I've also seen him claim his best squat and bench were 500lbs before. The numbers always seem to change.

I can't find it, but there was an old ass Muscle and Fitness article, where it was claimed that with a belt and chain, he attached 10, 100lb plates to it, and did donkey calf raises with it......

As a teen reading it, you're blown away.

Don't have heroes; look up to no one. Because as long as someone's leading the way, the best you'll ever be is second.
