Chick - who was your strongest training partner?
« on: February 06, 2007, 08:03:03 PM »
I know that Kamali likes to throw around numbers he really couldnt imagine doing, but was Tom Prince as strong as he was made out to be? I mean 455 shoulder presses for reps etc is unreal, and the guy was built like a mutant.

What was your most productive way of trainnig, did you like to match the big numbers or did you go for the reps?

can you give any exampes of the poundages he used at his peak? The guy was a beast, absolutely massive and thick all over. I dont know why everyone has a go at him cos i wasnt around when he used to post - if it was even on here when he did - but i always admired the guy for his genetics and power.

Tom Prince had the sickest hamstrings in bodybuilding. They didn't even look real.

Lets see...I've trained with him when he's done seated DB curls with the 90's....front shoulder press on the Smith Mach with 5 plates/side....hack squats with 11 plates/side....squat 700....front pulldown for back with 400 lbs....Flex leverage chest press with 5 1/2 plates/side....

thats sickening, how can anyone manage those lbages? was the 700 for reps Chick? All ive heard about him is he could military press 455 for 3 reps, bench 550 for a couple, curl the 100's etc but wasn't sure if it was true. How the hell did you keep up with him? Also, to answer my original question, what was your preferred method when training with him - high reps at a reduced weight or low reps to look respectable next to him?  ;D

Keep up with him? You must be joking....

I was always respectable when it came to strength, but no where near this freak...there's a reason we called him
"THE THING"...

I remember on Mayhem (http://www.chadnicholls.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2061&highlight=Hack) when he said that he did 12 plates aside. Said he only got three reps, but he got it. I guess you weren't with him when he did that? <Not being snide, just asking, really>
Did TP ever say anything to you when you two didn't train together, like "Yeah Bob, I got 12 plates aside for hacks today!" Kind of in a show off manner, or rather, that you two were just generally interested in each others lifts/progress.
