Um, is it just me...
or does this remind everybody of "Kim Jong-Il shot 15 holes-in-one the first time he ever picked up a golf club!"

Did you know that Pat Robertson can leg-press 2000 pounds! How does he do it?

Where does Pat find the time and energy to host a daily, national TV show, head a world-wide ministry, develop visionary scholars, while traveling the globe as a statesman?

1. I'd believe he could lip press that much weight considering
how much exercise his mouth gets.

3. The problem is
he never finds time for sex. That must be why he seems repressed.

6. It must be the God powered milk shake! Maybe he gave some to Rummy to help
with all those one armed pushups, too. :7

7. "download Pat's shake recipe" ... I have to admit to trying to do it .....
but they want a user registration and PW.

"2000 lbs" could be a typo and they meant "200 lbs" which would only be a gross exaggeration of what he can do.

10. What would you expect from a man who pals around with a guy who can
land a seven and a half pound perch?

12. That's pretty fucking unbelievable.
I used to lift competitively and I never leg pressed over 1675 lbs. 2000 lbs would crush his god-fearing ass.

13. This is actually quite possible.
Edited on Tue May-23-06 12:36 PM by Rosemary2205
I'm 5'2" and 120# and leg pressing around 800# and I really don't work that hard at it. My husband is a recently "disabled" serious athlete (missing below the knee on one leg) and leg presses at about 1200# using a 4 month old prosthetic - meaning he's still in rehab. He was at 1800# before the car accident that took his lower leg. He's only 5'8" and 175#. There's a couple pro football types at our gym that max out on the weights - which I think is 2500#.


OOOOOPS - sorry people. Husband tells me he was at 1600# not 1800# -- and the weights max out at 2200 not 2500. So sorry about that.
