Oh, I've seen pictures of him at age 17 or something when he just started training (in Flex) he does not look very large

anthrax, i believe, in fact i KNOW for a fact that a 600lb front squat is achievable without drugs. My friend Shane Hammon front squatted 660lbs as low as a person can go, totally and 100% lifetime clean. I myself did a pretty easy set of 550lbs for 5 reps on the front squat, and i have coached several other lifters who front squatted over 500lbs without drugs, who probablyt could have, or still might, get 600.

As far as a triple bodyweight squat being possible without drugs, a lifter i coach by the name of Nic Teaff a couple of years ago did a 415lb squat in the 114lb class at the age of 16 years old and also totally and 100% clean. Thats well over triple bodyweight and at a young age also. Nic was obviously built to squat and very genetically gifted.

I seriously doubt it, but is something like a 600 lb. front squat possible without the use of AAS? Hell, is a triple bodyweight squat even possible without it? I could see it being possible, yet extremely rare, if anything. Definitely not something most casual lifters (if any) would achieve.

I believe that midgets (I appologise if this is not the politically correct term) can lift incredible weights compared with their size and bodymass.

Glen, the numbers that you are coming out with are really impressive, but do you actually know of a guy who weighs 200lbs or less who FRONT squats 600lbs or more?
