Do you even lift, bro?

Terrence Jones plays right tackle for Troy. He is also able to lift an ungodly amount of weight.

Let’s put 810 pounds in context, shall we?

- Jones lifted more weight than four of Troy’s wide receivers COMBINED.

- 800 pounds is the weight of two average-sized black bears.

- Terrence Jones can easily squat-lift a vending machine (625 pounds).

- It would only take 15 Terrence Jones’s to lift an elephant.

Now we have to determine what’s more impressive: An 810-pound squat or a 515-pound bench press?
