Malone at the peak
1985, the jazz selected Malone in the first round 13. At that time, he weighed more than 230 kilograms, but he didn't have much muscle, and his body fat rate reached 10.5%. However, under the guidance of professional trainers, Malone soon became strong. Every day, he only trains in the gym.
I even like to train in a high temperature environment without air conditioning, just to feel the taste of sweating. It is said that the arm can't twist the thigh, so this is the upper limb muscle of Malone. You should know that Malone's bench press record in the NBA is 230kg, and his arm circumference has reached an amazing 55cm!
Malone is also a tough guy on the court and likes fierce physical confrontation. Even Jordan has suffered a lot in this regard. In a game, Jordan made a layup in the restricted area after passing the ball. I didn't expect Malone, who was in charge of the inside line, to jump directly and hit Jordan in the ribs with an elbow. This elbow made Jordan go straight back to the dressing room for treatment, and it took him a long time to fully recover.
General david robinson, as one of the four centers, is often bombarded by Malone, because his proud physical quality and skills are nothing in front of Malone, and he doesn't even dare to return to the court to continue to confront Malone after suspension. I have to say that there are fewer and fewer tough players like Malone in today's league, and the NBA without physical confrontation really lacks a little taste!
