You think you're strong...

[University-6]

Somto says cool story bro.

 

[YardCat]

Good to see, he knows he Must be stronger when he plays against men. Good for him, hope he has strong ankles more than anything!

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

That’s really amazing.

Just watched a breakdown of Cameron Boozer (dude on YT absolutely trashed him) and Somto absolutely freakin abused him. Dunked on him like 6 times.

 

[westerncat]

Good to see him working out . What are KY chances on Cameron Boozer and his brother ?

 

[DreadLox]

Don't keep doing that, kiddo. Beyond a certain point there's no advantage to simply being stronger. Learn angles, timing. etc. Be farmer strong. Somto looks like a cartoon He-man already, If there are no PEDs involved in that physique, he's a freak of nature. Real 5th std dev stuff.

 

[BlueBomb]

I see no real reason to do that.

Never seen that lift before. Leg press machine seems more conventional and safer.

 

[storm1507]

Impressive! I've also seen highlight dunks of his. Aggressive and can't wait to see him next year.

 

[Emarc]

Thinking how many things can go wrong with that lift.

 

[dynastydreamuk]

that's actually really impressive for a long tall dude, like even for gym rats ... i used to be a powerlifter and don't think i could ever do that if i tried at my peak.... maybe his arms and other leg are helping some i'm sure but none the less, if this is legit he could probably deep squat 600 lbs with both legs I'd think... for a 7 footer that's nuts.

 

[bigbluelou]

My knees hurt just watching that. Very impressive. Enjoy it and make the most of it while you can, young man.

 

[davekersey]

Remember a video showing him reaching above the vert stand. Not many people can do that

 

[YardCat]

Hope he is getting his ankles and feet strong

 

[G-PIP]

That doesn't look safe to me. I would think there are safer more traditional exercises to work the same muscles. But I'm not a trainer, so...

 

[Runnin'Ramel]

My knee hurts. Looks like a big risk?

[bbncal02]

I see no real reason to do that.

I mean it's impressive, but I saw that and was like, "What if his foot slips out? Isn't that a little dangerous?"

 

[BlueSince92]

Dayum.

 

[crawfords corner]

Yea, let's scrap that exercise. There are better ways to build leg strength. That's a disaster waiting to happen.

Do you remember who it was or have the link off hand?

 

[BigKari]

@Fox2monk Ignore the clickbait title, this dude knows his stuff. After this one watch his Cooper Flagg video. He went easy on Boozer compared to Flagg.
