Wonder for how many reps?
Was that 275 or 245? Couldn't tell. Not bad for a basketball player, especially for anyone that tall. Longer the limbs the longer you have to complete a rep

it looks like 4x45lbs + 2x25lbs = 230lbs + bar (45Lbs?) = 275lbs

On a smith machine the bar is virtually weightless. I can put up 315 "by that math" on a Smith, but only 275 on free weights where you have to balance the weight and I am 44 and weigh 205.
275 for a 250lb basketball player is ok but nothing special.
Glad to see them working out.

I’m not sure I buy the old saying that longer lifters have it tougher. The two reigning world’s strongest men are Halfthor Bjornsson who is 6’9” and BRIAN Shaw who is 6’8”.

That's a fun little tidbit, but that is not a smith machine hommie.
