Video of Cleveland Browns star running back Nick Chubb squatting unthinkable amounts of weight surfaced on social media Wednesday, and NFL fans are in awe.
Chubb, fresh off a season in which he rushed for a career-high 1,525 yards and reached the Pro Bowl, looks ready for yet another big campaign based on this video.
During an offseason workout, the Georgia product is seen squatting what appears to be more than 600 pounds for multiple reps, and doing so relatively easily. Making it more impressive is that Chubb did so using a “Tsunami Bar,” which bends with the weight and makes it more difficult to stay balanced.
Here’s the video that has the internet shocked.

Good luck tackling that guy.
Chubb has pulled off similar squatting feats before. Last summer, he was seen squatting 610 pounds in a workout video that went viral. And while there’s no official weight for this year’s clip, there appears to be the same amount on the bar this time around.
The reaction from fans was one of amazement.

There’s strong, and there’s Nick Chubb strong. Looks like he’s ready for the start of training camp this weekend.
