Alabama running back Derrick Henry often looks like a man among boys when he’s out there on the football field. It’s no surprise that he also blows ordinary athletes out of the water inside the weight room, too.

You may recall back in April that Henry posted crazy weightlifting numbers at Alabama’s spring testing. Henry ran a 4.50 40; bench pressed 440 pounds; squatted 500 pounds; power cleaned 345 pounds; and recorded a 35-inch vertical leap. Full details from the Bama spring testing are here.

On Wednesday he posted a video to his Instagram account of him squatting, I dunno, about 500 pounds:

What a monster. The junior has rushed for 1,044 yards and 13 touchdowns through eight games this season. He sure looks NFL-ready.
