Eddie Hall is no stranger to lifting very heavy weights. He did it for a living from 2010 all the way to his retirement in 2018. However, during this particular gym sessions, Eddie trained legs and after a few heavy sets of squats he tried maxing out on the leg press machine.
First, he did a couple of “lighter” sets with weights up to 800+ lbs, which was the max weight the machine could handle. This resulted in Eddie emptying his bowels partially and being forced to take a quick bathroom break. When he came back he decided to up the ante on the leg press and add even more weight on the machine.
After putting a literal tonne of weight on the machine he then proceeded to leg press double the weight he famously deadlifted back in 2017.
Eddie managed to grind out 6 hard reps before barely managing to rack the weight before passing out. He wakes up a few seconds later exhausted and confused as to what happened. This incident made come down to two conclusions;
1. Eddie Hall is a certified maniac, even when his body starts to shut down- he will continue to push forward.
2. Ronnie Coleman doing this weight as a bodybuilder preparing for a bodybuilding show is even crazier.
