Pat Robertson crazier than you thought: leg presses 2000 lbs

[Regnad Kcin]

Pat Robertson was the original author of the Declaration of Independence.

He recently drove a Formula 1 car at just under the speed of light. (And, while chatting on a cell phone!)

If it weren't for Pat, everything would be yellow.

Pat Robertson is actually Meryl Streep, that's how good she is.

He can do much weight because he doesn't actually do a full range of motion, he legs bend maybe 10-degrees. He's barely bending his knees before pushing up again. I used to do that much weight, for about 20 reps, using a full motion where my legs actually bent to 90-degrees. Pat Robertson is weak.

You two should fight to the death on live TV. Just when you're about to beat him, you yell "Where are your Jesus and protein shakes now old man?!"

I'd end him with a crucifix submission.

Remember the rocket-propelled car that ran into a cliff somewhere in the southwestern USA? The one a friend of your friend knew about? Betcha can't guess who was driving it. Who walked away without a scratch.

[music: "Jeopardy" theme tune]

*nodnod* You got it! Pat Robertson.

Did anyone notice that my list of feats attributed to Pat Robertson were all just re-worded quotes from the Bill Braskey SNL skits?

 

[Regnad Kcin]

...originally written by Pat Robertson!

 

[Meffy]

/me is abashed... This Braskey of whom you speak came from a dynasty long after that during which I was among the faithful. (Has anybody here seen my old friend Gilda?)

[edit] Whoa! The BBS software understands an IRC-style /me is abashed...

Pat Robertson once ate a mountain in southwest Virginia and -- erm, let's say he "spat" out twinned staurolite crystal crosses. You can still find them, but "the enemy" has managed to have the site named Fairy Stone State Park. Witness, o my friends, the epic battle between Native American, Christian, and fairy-tale traditions in the miry, muckily 'musing misch-mosch of myth that has grown up to "explain" the naturally occurring stone crosses found in this area. Quaynte.

[edit] Here's a site with a photo showing the raw crystals in their natural state, before cleaning off and light faceting.

There is a link to the recipe on that page, but you have to register first.

So I registered.

There's a picture in the pdf recipe file of Pat doing leg presses.



Creatine!

Before this recipe are 4 pages of explanations for each ingredient. For example:



Here's the deal on the creatine:




Okay. I took two drops of creatine under the tongue when I was working out. I swelled up like a balloon. When Robertson says "Creatine pumps water into the muscle cells and causes them to enlarge" , that is a no kidder. It took weeks, after only one dose, before my body was back to normal.

He has people putting a teaspoon of the stuff in their shakes. Jesus!

If you're not being sarcastic...


Creatine doesn't do that. I've taken 10 grams of creatine a day for weeks at a time before and experienced no weight gain or strength gain. 2 drops won't do anyting. Hopefully it was a joke.

Pat Robertson was using a machine sort of like this..

http://www.fitness-equipment.com/acatalog/WLPH1100_400x400.jpg

Though the degrees in tilt was lower.

Yes they go up to 2,000lbs.


However I saw the video of him doing 10 reps with 1,000lbs and a few things to note..

1.His range of motion was about an inch if that. He only bounced the weight up and down an inch or so.

2.He used his hands to push his legs.

3.He never released the safety bar which lets the weight down. He just bounced it up and down on the safety lock.



If he were to do it correctly...I doubt he could do more than 300lbs.


My personal max for 1 rep with my knees touching my chest is about 1,400lbs. My range of motion is atlest 2 feet compaired to his 1 inch and i've been lifting for almost 10 years.

I'm sure mr."thai boxer"...lol.

Ronnie Coleman, several times Mr. Olympia and a freak of nature, in his "Cost of Redemption" DVD leg presses 2250 lbs (I don't remember for how many reps but I can check it out). And look at the size of Ronnie's legs in the attached pic. So I find it highly improbable that PR presses 2000 lbs. It's either a much smaller weight or he uses a ridiculously small range of motion, like an inch or so.

Bodybuilders aren't Powerlifters. Espically Ronnie Coleman.

So, Dustin, are you defending Mr. Robertson's claim?

Pat Robertson always gets blackjack. Even when he's playing poker.

When Pat Robertson gives you the finger, he's telling you how many seconds you have left to live.

Switzerland isn't really neutral. They just haven't figured out what side Pat Robertson is on yet.

So, Dustin, are you defending Mr. Robertson's claim?

Definitily not. Didn't you read what I said?

"If he were to do it correctly...I doubt he could do more than 300lbs."

Additionally, as a swim coach in the national and olympic stream, I get frequent notices from the olympic head coach and team sports doctors regarding training regimens, diet, and so on. Creatine is explicitly prohibited from our national athletes' training regimes, due to health concerns.

What health concerns? I'm sure the thousands of people taking Creatine would love to hear about them.

How do they ban people from taking Creatine? It's found in red meat. Do they ban them from eating red meat?

They say that lightning never strikes the same place twice. Niether does Pat Robertson. He doesn't have to.

Pat Robertson sleeps with a night light. Not because Pat Robertson is afraid of the dark, but the dark is afraid of Pat Robertson.

Water boils faster when Pat Robertson watches it.

Leading hand sanitizers claim they can kill 99.9 percent of germs. Pat Robertson can kill 100 percent of whatever the **** he wants.

Pat Robertson can divide by zero.

If Pat Robertson is late, time better slow the **** down.

Superman owns a pair of Pat Robertson pajamas.

Thankfully, you don't either.

I'm not sure you sleep. You're the classic undergraduate fool.

You'll learn, someday..........

Water boils faster when Pat Robertson watches it.

Water doesn't boil for you. You haven't figured out how to cook yet.

Leading hand sanitizers claim they can kill 99.9 percent of germs. Pat Robertson can kill 100 percent of whatever the **** he wants.

What a coincidence! I, too, can kill 100% of whatever the **** I want (as long as it's in season).

If Pat Robertson is late, time better slow the **** down.

I'm never late, and time had damned well better slow the **** down. (Not for you. You need to grow up; the sooner, the better).

I don't own pajamas. I sleep in the raw. Clothes are just too..........restricting.
