They trained extremely low volume in thier sprinting volume also. The numbers would really surprise you.
It really does all boil down to drugs, with that style of training. I honestly had similiar statistics to Johnson, a 640 squat and 390 bench at 174 with 3% bodyfat. I did this by the age of 22, naturally. But then again I was on every supplement you can imagine from GNC since I was 16. (No prohormones ever though.) But I trained like an animal for 6 years uninterrupted.
I am not interested in playing in the NFL naturally, I want to get on steroids, GH, IGF-1, and get my squat over 1,000 and bench over 650. I would like to run a 4.0 at 220, but I know for a fact I can run under 4.3 naturally so I am not sure whats better, squatting 1000 with a 4.2 at 180 lbs, or squatting 1,000 with a 4.4 at 220. If I am lucky I will be able to get bigger and faster and stronger, I don't see why not really. Ultimately I am setting my sights on a 4.0 40 at 220 with a 1100 squat and a 700 bench.
This is by no means average by NFL standereds; I know it will be fun one way or another.
