Discuss.....sorry if repost
Since posting the articles about my heavy and hardcore training philosophy, I have received many requests for a glimpse at my typical workout numbers. My goal with each workout is to apply enough aggression to (1) move as much weight as efficiently and safely as possible, and (2) to naturally stimulate my body�s own production of testosterone. I utilize my power movements (squat, bench, and deadlift) to force my body to kick out more testosterone.
I do have a training partner and have always stressed the importance of safety. Make sure you have someone who is knowledgeable and capable of spotting properly. Training heavy is extremely beneficial and vital to rapid muscle growth.
In case you are interested, you can view my lifting techniques on DVD as I squat 600 for reps without a belt and knee wraps, and perform seated dumbbell curls with 80 lb. dumbbells. Just go to www.gmv.com.au for more information.
I will list the poundage and repetitions for each individual set, set by set, from all warm-up sets through all subsequent sets. I do have �off� days when the strength just isn�t all there so the numbers posted below are from my �good� days. The bold print is just there to help you follow the numbers better. So with no further adieu, here they are:
FLAT BARBELL PRESS
225 X 20, 315 X 20, 405 X 6-10, 455 X 2, 475 X 1, 315 X 15-20, 225 X 20
INCLINE BARBELL PRESS
185 X 20, 225 X 20, 275 X 10, 315 X 8-10
INCLINE DUMBBELL PRESS
(Dumbbells only go up to 125LB at my gym)
100 X 20, 125 X 20, 125 X 15, 125 X 20, 125 X 15

LEG PRESS
I use leg press as a supplemental movement in addition to squats. I always squat and never use the leg press as a primary movement. A single set consists of 10 reps with my feet together to hit my outer sweep, 10 reps with my feet shoulder width apart to hit the medial portion of my quads, and 10 reps with my feet in a sumo stance to hit my inner thighs. For this compound movement, my sets and weights are as follows:
495 X 30, 585 X 30, 675 X 30, 675 X 30
FRONT MILITARY BARBELL PRESS
135 X 20, 185 X 15, 225 X 10, 275 X 5-8, 315 X 5-8

50 X 20, 65 X 15, 80 X 10, 80 X 10, 50 X 20
BENTOVER BARBELL ROWS
135 X 20, 185 X 20, 225 X 20, 275 X 15, 315 X 12, 365 X 6-8

CLOSE GRIP BENCH PRESS
225 X 20, 275 X 15, 315 X 12, 315 X 12, 225 X 20
LYING BARBELL TRICEPS EXTENSION
95 X 15, 135 X 12, 185 X 10, 185 X 10, 135 X 12
STIFF LEG DEADLIFT
135 X 15, 225 X 12, 275 X 10, 315 X 10, 405 X 10
SUMO STANCE DEADLIFT
(I prefer a sumo stance to a traditional one.)
225 X 20, 315 X 12, 405 X 10, 495 X 6-10, 585 X 5-8, 585 X 5-8
My personal best is 725 pounds at a bodyweight of 170 … without a squat suit, knee wraps, or belt. Powerlifters, especially, know how much help the suit and knee wraps provide. In competition, I can add an extra 100 pounds to my squat with the suit on.
..........Eryk Bui
-
bullshit, plain and simple.
-
laughable. have you ever seen this guy? people will say anything
-
SQUAT
600 X 5-8, 675 X 2, 700 X 1
Bui is squatting more than most top pros, despite weighing 100 pounds less.
-
He needs to go have 8 stacks of pancakes and waffles and stfu
-
He also has to move half the distance less and has a serious leverage advantage due to short limbs
Anyone here actually knows how the body works?
You guys reason short (lighter) dudes = weaker
If anything it's the other way around
-

that's not why I call bs on these lifts. have you seen this nimrod?

I have, I'm not interested in the lift numbers btw, who cares bout that
Most people here do not grasp basic concepts
If you'd ask: who would you give a 500lbs bench, bui or much taller and heavier quincy taylor, everyone is gonna go for taylor, while no doubt bui can press more weight (regardless of what the actual number is)

yeah, but he sure ain't thick. Bui is a narrow bodybuilder. I'm not buying the rumor that Bui is nearly as strong as Ronnie and JoJ. If so, this wouldn't be the first we heard of it. It would make him one of the strongest, pound-for-pound, men on the danm planet, to be claiming those monster lifts at a BW of under 190... and being a bodybuilder, not even a powerlifter, makes it all the more incredible.
So 1 of 3 things is happening here. He's lying, he doesn't do full-range movements, or we're learning of one of the strongest human beings ever.
-
haha. ok sure ::)
-
maruisz may be in trouble
-
bullshit, plain and simple.
dammit SF you could have waited and not been first post LOL...I knew you would love this pile of steaming horseshit..I laughed out loud on the 315 for 20 and shit, and 315 front military, actually all of it
-
SQUAT
600 X 5-8, 675 X 2, 700 X 1

You were going 405 for 20 were you not, Rob?
The Beef
-
You would have to see the way he performs the lifts.Branch Warren has stated on MANY occasions that he squats ass to heels,however,on his video,hes ten inches high.I believe this guy could move those kind of weights,but how is he moving them?The thing thats funny,is when you question a guys claims,you always get the "this is bodybuilding,not powerlifting" argument.However,if weights are unimportant,why claim them in the first place?Johnny Jackson said Branch can do 405X10[I think it was actually 20]then when you see his tape its 365 front press for a hard tripple.Whats the point of lying?Who cares?
-
when i see proof i'll believe it until then file this one as bullshit along with JOJ's 120 pound db curls, 200 pound db inclines, 405 for 8 seated military, 405 for reps upright row and Trey Brewers bullshit claimed lifts as well.
-
well apparantly these are lifts he does on video?

i've never seen or heard of it, kind of like Dexter Jackson's supposed 315 pound lying tricep extensions. ::)

-

-

YOu call them "Reps" ???
If that bar touched his chest he'd be stuck.
I will say He presents a interesting accumulation of lean muscle on a small frame....
Gee, I wonder if he's slightly "Hormoneized" ??? ;D Where is GH15?
He did say he's natural?

If this is the guy I think it is (if he competed in the Olympia in 2003 or 2004) he came to Kona just before the Olympia one year around 2003 maybe 2004 and was training at my Gold's Gym I had there. He never lifted heavy. But, he did go out and go body surfing and fucked himself up on the rocks. We were thinking he was going to catch an infection it look so bad. I think this is the guy.
-
Ive got an old Flex magazine from 2005 where theres pics of him squatting 635 so it could be possible.......although it only shows the squat halfway down in the pic ;D so he probably didnt go parallel if its not showing it ::)
-
You were going 405 for 20 were you not, Rob?
The Beef
it seems my ROM is technically considered "power courtseys".
-
billy nailed it right on the head a lot of these guys throw out poundages...
but when u see them on video... its a whole different story...
johnny jackson upright rows with 405 fot 8 reps..
he hardly handled 135 for a full range of movement...
....
only 2 no 3 people have put up or shut on video.. coleman .. levrone .. and cormier...
...
most of these bbers.. i would kill them pound for pound.. and im natural
