Nick Chubb has long developed a strong reputation as a weight room star, and the former Georgia star has delivered his latest impressive performance.
Chubb lifted 610 pounds in a performance at his high school, Cedartown, as he looks to max out on his preparations for the NFL season. Chubb back in 2017 delivered another 600-pound max performance while at Georgia.
Last year, Chubb knocked out two squat reps of 600 pounds and did a 415-pound power clean, Dawg247 reported. Earlier this year, the former Georgia Bulldog star went with a single rep of 675 pounds back in his hometown. On Tuesday, Chubb posted a video of him doing two power clean reps of 405 pounds at his former high school.

Chubb, last year signed a three-year contract extension, and over the course of his career has earned 3 consecutive Pro Bowl selections (2019-21), including starting honors in 2019. Joined Hall of Famers Jim Brown (1958-66) and Leroy Kelly (1967-72) as the only Browns RBs to make three consecutive Pro Bowls.
The weight room has certainly paid off for Chubb. Chubb owns the longest rush and third-longest rush in Browns history and is the only Cleveland player with two carries of 75-plus yards. He finished second in the NFL in rushing yards in 2019 and 2021.
