Damn these athletes and their bloody athleticism.
We could handle being out-muscled by a wrestler like The Rock – who gave us a look at his ridiculous quads – but a golfer is another story.
Rory McIlroy is currently preparing for a run at the Northern Trust Open this week but he still had time for a final intense squat workout.
The Northern Irishman shared a clip of the workout with his followers, and you can’t help but watch to the end.

McIlroy was not finished there. He took to Twitter to, jokingly, boast about how he had done a bundle more squats.
Re the squats it was the last set of 3×3 at 120kg(265lbs). Did 3×10 at 100kg(225lbs) before that. I'm 165lbs. I'm a golfer not body builder

This was the best of the hundreds of responses McIlroy received:
.@McIlroyRory hey Ror, don't be the guy who brags about his workout and always carries around a gallon of water. Saying that as ur friend

But a former Irish rugby international wasn’t too impressed.
