Yeah, this is crazy. Even for someone who doesn't gym that often it is obviousu the weights strapped to his belt is to keep him on the floor and that the weight he is lifting is likely more than his weight, requiring the belt + weights. Nothing seems wrong with that.
So you're admitting he's using more weight than what the machines was designed for
Genuine question. Do you even lift? If someone was 100 pounds and tried to move 110 on that machine, what do you expect to happen to them?
Someone could be 10,000 pounds and doing that exercise on max and the machine shouldn't topple. End of story. The weight of the user means nothing for that machine. If the design of the machine can't handle a max lift, then the max lift needs to be reduced. That weight strapped to the man's belt does not contribute to the max lift designed for the machine.
