I didn’t go heavy I just did between 500 - 700 pounds 💀

“If your form is pure, size and strength with follow”💯

[bjf]

Only Tom Platz would consider 500-700 lbs "low weight"

[rylter]

Exactly. Keep it light, guys. Do 500lb for 12-14 strict reps. 😂🙈

[gettupp]

Tom Platz is the only guy that could say Fred Hatfield had small legs.
Dr. Squat had some tree trunks

[ljss]

Hey guys: don't forget to do low weight day, anything between 500-700lbs should be light and easy. Just get the form right.

[garydouglas]

Platz found the "happy medium". Pure form with heavy weight for high reps. He didn't increase weight until he could do 50 reps.

[SwindonRunner]

there is something mesmerising about Platz's squat form.

[chaosjack]

Reps are for hypertrophy, weight is for strength

Tom platz had legs way ahead of his era. It wasnt until the mass monsters came around who were on tons more gear who had legs that could even come close.

[benjaminturner]

I remind myself heavy for me is heavy for me. Whatever that weight might be if it's heavy I know I'm challenging myself.

Tom Platz LOVED squatting
That's the difference between him and others he genuinely loved just doing squats it wasnt a chore to him

[hideous_taco_michael_zacki]

Platz and Mentzer have literally the complete opposite ideologies, it almost feels like they are each other's arch-nemesi Lmao.

I went to the universe competition that he won in 1980. The guy was so shredded. To this day I remember talking to him after ( I was friends with Ed Corney ). Tom was as down to earth a guy as you’d ever meet. We took a pic with Ed. I still have that pic on the wall in my home gym. Serious motivation at 62 yrs old.

[grishawinner]

Remember Ronnie saying he wishes he’d squat more than the 800 Ibs he was repping 😂

[Testo]

He is the perfect example why u dont skip leg days👑

[connerthomson]

Man's such a legend. When Tom speaks, everyone shuts up and listens.

[hotbello]

I listen to Tom while I'm at the gym. Great training inspiration! Legend

[rayhanes]

This man was just built different. He said 500-700 was never heavy and he did high reps 😭

[charleshendrix]

Its 1. Genetics, 2. Drugs, 3. Training. Always was, always will be.
