Dwain Chambers Jump Squat 170kg

[@Southernburrito]

That's all the proof I need to know I live around ignorance. Fantastic job man, good for you!

[@craig484]

Hi Dwain, Did you find as a youngster that you were able to lift heavy weight naturally as a result of being naturally blessed as a sprinter (i.e. higher % of fast twitch muscle fibers?). Do almost all sprinters have very impressive stats naturally even before years or decades of weight training? Thanks

[@DwainChambers]

C B Good question!! I'm still able to lift just as heavy, however with age and responsibilities I have to rest for longer periods of time and not lift as frequently.

[@MrMa1981]

So, you are the real Chambers.wow

[@ivojamaican]

Nice train Dwain... 🙏🏽 💙

[@incorectulpolitic]

Is heavy weight lifting really necessary to improve sprinting? I spoke with a coach who trains a 100m sprinter and a 400m sprinter/runner who do not lift weights at all. Their time is 10.20 and 46.00. With do you think about that?

[@incorectulpolitic]

@J 0 what about jumpers(LJ, TJ, PV) and throwers(DT, JT, SP)? Would they need to to lift weight? Would body weight training be enough? Who are those sub 10 guys who never lifted weights? I guess they do tons of plyos in place of weights, right?

No belt! What a beast...

[@DwainChambers]

I wouldn't recommend lifting without a belt as I now suffer with lots of lower back problems.

@@DwainChambers thanks a lot for this comment i was doing 130kg deadlifts without belt and 120kg squat too 🙏

[@contee12345]

[@ab-pj2ur]

contee12345 Watch out for Rechmial Miller!!!!! New 100m talent.

[@marinova13]

It looks like 150kg right ? 2x( 2x20+15+10) + the bar 20kg = 150kg

[@phoebemccorry7046]

[@wss33]

[@akuro032009]

canadian sprinter - Ben Jonhson (77 kg) could raise 300 kg 50m - 5,55 60m - 6,41 100m - 9,79

+Lexus Egorov Yes but this is squat JUMP

[@uribesucks9039]

But with a lot of cocaine in his system.

[@CL-fg5ne]

@@wss33 no Offense but I wouldn't call this a squat JUMP more of a calf jump

[@wss33]

​@@CL-fg5ne Calf jump? Sure calves were involved as were a lot of other muscles. He went down into a squat and jumped on the way up. For a calf jump he would need straight legs all the time. This way his quads and glutes did almost 100% of the work. Maybe calves help just a little bit on the end. Anyway a 170kg calf jump would be more impressive.

[@babahow]

Ben Johnson would squat 250kg and could do 700 lbs that's phenomenal for a guy who only weighed 75kg Dwain was on steroids too people say it was only Ben's drugs but any guy could take drugs and not be about to do that, especially at a light middleweight frame, it was his unique physiology, basically almost pure white muscle fibre

[@marinova13]

Really? Why they didn’t perform without drugs ?

[@joachim7]

Sorry no disrespect but j think this is unnecessary to sprinting

[@RokDidakovicRoky]

Then what has?
