Meanwhile in the US …
The Juggernaut Chad Wesley Smith Squats 387kg (855lbs).
Turns out this is exactly what ATG’s Rep Max Calculator predicts when you plug in his 365kg x2.
Just from listening to it, you could think it was Milko Tokola…

Hi, I run ATG.
Follow me on instagram @gregorwinter (and ATG @atginsta).
387kg is only 851.4lbs?
He squatted with pond plates. 855lbs is 387.82kg
I’m sorry? I’m not quite familiar. 388.6 = 855lbs.

Not about the post question.. I’m just curious. 1kg is not 2.2lbs anymore gregor? Serious question.
Ok this will be my last comment on this.
1lbs is 0.4536 kg. Multiply that by 855 and get 387.8kg
Yes, 2.2 lbs per kilo gets very inaccurate once you get to numbers this big, so Gregor is of course completely correct. The silly thing is that in powerlifting, kilo values are always rounded DOWN to the pound value regardless of the decimal point. So even if you lift a kilo value that equals something like 317.5 kgs (@2.2046 conversion = 699.96) it is rounded down to 699 instead of 700 in American competitions.
That last bit was trivia–not related to the video, which is of course, ridiculously awesome.
Superb!
