Looking for anyone willing to sell any extra tickets to the state individual AAA wrestling tournament for Friday 2/26.  We had a bit of a snafu, and tickets were sold out before any of our boys’ parents could purchase.  Any ticket leads are greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

I am rolling my eyes over how this conversation turned into a  weight lifting argument instead of who you think will do well in the wrestling state tournament next weekend.

HOWEVER - as these two topics are both major interests of mine- I couldn't resist commenting  on the matter. 

So....

 I looked up Howard's profile on football recruiting websites- his squat is listed as 550 and his bench is 350.  As he is a major football recruit, I would assume these numbers are very close to accurate.

Over a year ago, (So I would assume Cummings is stronger now) Brandon and Trevor showed me videos on Instagram of Cummings lifting well over these numbers. If my memory serves me correctly, I want to say he was front-squatting over 600 for maybe 3 reps? He was also bench pressing over 400 at only 195 body weight.

If you guys are wanting to argue applicable strength, or functional strength on a wrestling mat, thats one thing.  But- there is really no way of actually measuring that. However I think most of you though are basing your opinions on how big a kid's muscles are in a singlet. 

Now in terms of traditional power lifts- Squat, Bench, Deadlift- I would say Stone is a safe bet for an all-time top 3, yes only weighing 235 (who really weighs 223). If you do not believe me, come find me next Friday (It's pretty obvious who I am) and I can show you how to find the video proof, and explain to you how elite those numbers really are for a 17 year old kid, not just from Tennessee, but in the world.

 

P.S..... get off the Hunter Allen myths already.  I beat him.  And was stronger.  Don't believe me?  Again, come talk to me next Friday. lol

I've personally watched and videoed Cummins lifting, my son wrestled and he would work out with him and he's every bit as advertised!!! He's one of the hardest working young men you will find, from what I've personally seen, I would put him up against anyone in the country as far as weight lifting goes...

The same 195 beat him last year and lost by 1 to him earlier this year. If he wins it will be an upset and I'm picking Langford.

When he beat him,he was sick... he got sick at the Bobby Bates tournament in va,and lost over twenty pounds in Just a short time! If you knew how hard he works and how driven he is,today's state title wouldn't have surprised you a bit.
