Nice pics bro. Matt Jones looks awesome. He is still only 19 years old.

2 guns , yeah 280 bro .. i know that sounds like shit, but i have spotted him doing it a few times , 6 and a half plates on each side and the guy just walks back off the rack and does it . god knows how, 3 a side is heavy enough when its accross your back . Have seen him do 6 plates unassisted for 6 reps few times. Pretty honest squats to.

I know some dudes will read that and go " yeah right " but you go watch him do a leg train and you can back me up bro he's a freak. trains with so much weight and goes so hard i have seen him flake out on the floor purple in the face with blue lips a couple of times as well. And once again thats no shit.

:) The insane thing is that it's true.

6 and a half 20 kg plates a side . like i said i lived with matt from may 2006 until this year and trained with him off and on right up until he left for auckland 2 weeks ago.

His leg trains at our gym were always the same, he would come in, put his mp3 player on do a couple of warmup sets and then just keep on slapping on plates. i used to pull out at 140 kg and then just spot him as he kept going up. after he got up to about 4 a side he would bang his wraps on his knees and keep on going.

Matt gets up to 6 a side almost every time he does legs so i'm sure you guys up north will see it for yourself soon enough.

I have seen/spotted him doing that weight ( 260 ) about 10 times and have spotted him at 280 a couple.

People in the gym just stand there gobsmacked when he starts squatting that, even the older guys that have been training for years. Only 2 guys in the gym could match matts weight on the rack and both of them are guys that have competed as powerlifters on a national level in their 30s.

And we aint talking 1 or 2 reps, i have seen him load up 260 on the bar and get 6 good reps on his own before he needed a spot, and seen him get 4 at 280. Then watch as he goes back down to 5,4,3, a side for reps until he cant stand.

He could easily get a couple at 300 but has never tried but i'm sure he will in the near future.

It's a sight to behold.. and that's the truth.. 8)

fair enough guys. i know if someone told me a 19 year old guy was squatting that much weight i would just be thinking yeah right pull the other one. but like i said , 2 guns has met him , knows the guys he is living with up in auckland now, i'm down in taranaki, I'm sure 2 guns will get to see him train legs in the next couple of weeks and then he can back me up. But it's the truth, i dont even think i could even stand up under that much weight.

I will get Matt to do legs in two weeks as he needs to recover from the comp also i will take some pic for all you to see and I will get 2guns to be there to.

Good on you for giving him a rest. The guy needs it. I see first hand the torment he puts himself through when he is dieting.

Pics will tell the tale....

I'll back diamond up he will be telling the truth, as he says Mat is one dedicated bodybuilder and freaky strong in the legs. You guys will see. :shock:
