what roids did ben johnson use?

Maurice Green has a phenomenal bench.

M Johnson was also extremely strong up top.

Linford Christie was a weight room champ as well.

I think when your dealing with that caliber of athlete it's probably very hard to find any movement in which they aren't physiological freaks.

Being a sprinter I can tell you that the focus is not on how much you bench or even squat... You must train sport specific... Which means for a sprinter you must train explosive... Power cleans, Push press's, Hang cleans, Explosive Squats, Snatch's... All these lifts train most the muscles necessary for a sprinter to be successful... Yes doing a light weight high rep bench wouldnt hurt, but during a sprint it has been proven that you dont use your biceps, and barely even your chest... Sprinting is more about Neromuscular work (drills, coordination, foot placement) than anything else... I know alot of guys who barely train in the weight room but work very hard on their technique and they are very successful... Shit I dunno what I am talking about anymore haha Sorry just throwin something out there about sprinters, lol

Ben was very strong, but really lazy. I was training almost everyday alongside him when he was on his comeback from his first suspension. I was in my late teens at this time, but I would watch him train. He was extremely fast naturally. I played soccer with him lot's of times. You could tell he was clean cuz he wasn't as big and quick out of the blocks. Mark McCoy (hurdler) would beet him on the start almost evry time.

LOL

Ben Johnson got screwed.


I read Charlie Francis' book (he was his coach)

apparently Ben could fron squate in the 400's for reps fairly easily and was bench pressing in the low 400's

That is one strng ass sprinter.

At the peak of his 100 yard sprint he was clocked at 28mph!!!
