Default Schwarzenegger Squatting

Check out the following footage of Arnold S at 28 years of age squatting with Ed Corney. This may take about 5 minutes to load:

I confess I squat just as hard as this myself (till I puke) and with more or less the same weight as Arnold is using here (more correctly stated 3 years ago as I now use lighter weights).
For cyclists, this kind of exercise may not be productive and Lance Armstrong tended to go with leg-presses. Still, squats are far harder as you can see.

Hmmmmm, kind of odd? Wolfix doesn't squat? Limerickman or C.R. don't squat?
They're said to be good for stage sprinters but can probably limit endurance.
