How Pat Robertson Leg Pressed 2,000 Pounds


Pat Robertson worked out at the gym on an incline leg press machine with weights up to 570 pounds. Working with his physician, who was an amazing strength trainer, he worked up to 800 pounds, then 1,000 pounds. Then one day he was able to leg press 1,500 pounds one time. Then over the succeeding months, he trained with multiple reps of 1,200 pounds, 1,300 pounds, and 1,400 pounds.

One Saturday morning, his physician said, “I’ll get you bragging rights. Let’s go to 2,000 pounds.” Then he worked up multiple reps of 1,400 pounds, 1,500 pounds, 1,600 pounds, 1,700, pounds, 1,800 pounds and 1,900 pounds. When 2,000 pounds was put on the machine two men got on either side and helped push the load up, and then let it down on Mr. Robertson, who pushed it up one rep and let it go back down again.

Mr. Robertson warms up now at 500 pounds, and was shown on television with Kristi Watts doing 1000 pounds.

His doctor, by the way, has leg pressed 2,700 pounds. It is not nearly as hard as the authors of these reports make it out to be. We have multiple witnesses to the 2,000 pound leg press, plus video of the 10 reps of 1,000 pounds.

He'll need all that leg strength once he starts kicking everybody he doesn't like out of the country.

Well this certainly makes up for his numerous hateful comments!

God is totally setting him up...

"Yes, way to go Pat, now try 3000!"

"Oops!"

I believe the world record is around 1300 lbs, so 2000 lbs is pretty good.

Yep, 1335 I believe. I used to leg press about 800 and I was one of the best on our team at the leg press.

I was able to leg press the stack on our weight machine in high school, but that machine was horribly inaccurate. I was like 5'5", 130 at the time. I think the weight was supposedly 700 lbs.

Considering this is Pat Robertson's own Web site and not some tabloid or The Onion makes it much more funny.

Still not as good as Kim Jong Il shooting a 34 (par 72) with 11 aces the first time he golfed.

The mental image of that is disturbing. Must have been the fattest of all fatties.. ;)

After watching the video of him "pressing" 1000 pounds, I'm pretty sure his presses aren't going to qualify for the record.

The world record can't be only 1,335, can it? I pressed 900 pounds in High School (the school record at the time), and though I waded through a three foot pool of water for 4 hours a day back then, I didn't work out other than in PE.

I hear that after he pressed 2000 pounds, he intercepted 43 passes in 2 games.

Uses a lot of hands and not much pressing.

1335 is the FSU football team record (Dan Kendra). Not sure about world.

You all realize that this is somehow his petty way of "competing" with Madeline Albright who said somewhat recently that she could leg press 400 pounds. He just has to be 5 times better than her. If only he knew what he was talking about...
