Title: Questions for onlyme
Post by: Hedgehog on January 22, 2008, 05:58:52 AM
I got a few questions for you mate:

What's your discus throw record in practice, and what's your discus throw record in competition?

What's your personal record in benchpress (gym lift obviously).

Thanks.

$100 bet says that onlyme can't press his own bodyweight
$100 bet says that onlyme can't squat his own bodyweight..."full squat"

Only $100 bucks?  Scared?

A more interesting bet would be that $1,000,000 says you can't curl your bodyweight.

I never competed ever.  I jsut decided thats what i wanted to do.  When I saw I could throw it pretty far right off the bat I decided to try it seriously.  It gave me incentive to train really hard.  I moved to California to train and then got bit.  The farthest I threw it was 196'  That was done measuring with one of those rolling kind of measuring things at Kalani High in Honolulu where I practiced.  That was also done with the rubber training disc which is about the same weight and diameter as the real one.  The most I have benched is 585.

no, I cannot curl 195lbs..

125-135 tops for a couple of crappy reps..when I go heavy I always feel my forearms working more than I would like them to

what is your point?

Not to defend keith here, but....you must be a pretty big pussy in the gym to think that somebody of Keith's size and strength back in the day couldn't do that.  What's your 1RM, 240? ::)

Well I guess you had to be there but I am sure back then you were barely 3 years old if that.  If you know who Gene Mozee is you can ask him.  Not sure if MaxRep here actually saw me do 585 but he was a member of that gym too.  If Ray Mentzer wasn't dead you could ask him but if you know Benny Pooda I am sure he has seen me do it a few times.  Many other to that were in the gym.  Here is a pick with 550 that gene Mozee took for an article in M&F.  But, hey I guess since I don't have a video than I can't prove it.  But back then we just lifted to prove our lifts.  By the way what are your lifts.

Shit I'll take that bet.  I know I can't press my own body weight now.  I can squat just my body all way to the floor does that count.  Are these bets you spent a lot of time coming up with.  If they are you need to get a real life cause those are sad.

When i was training with Dorian in the nineties, he said that name-dropping didn't get you anywhere.
Jay Cutler and Phillip Heath later stated the same on our trip to the carribean...  ::) ::) ::)

Well maybe Maxx doesn't lift but Max_Rep does Squad. Shoulder injuries and turning 53 have me doing things a lot differently now then back in the day but I still hit it pretty hard. How do you think I trained with Bill Grant, Samir, Ray, Mike, Rory, Danny Padilla and Bob Chick if I don't train? I'm shaking my head with some of the things you guys come up with.

I recognize the bench press set up from muscle Mill Keith. I went by the building last Saturday. No I wasn't there when you did the 585, but I do remember Benny and Ray talking about it.

What are you benching nowdays?  Thats not an insult, I'm honestly curious.  I woudl imagine you still lift more than most getbiggers here.

Well last summer I was back up to doing 405 for a few with pauses.  I am not doing more than 315 right now for about 8.  I rarely do more than 6 to 8 reps on anything.  Once it gets really easy then I add a 45 to each side.  I usually don't bench or incline anything but 45's.  Sometimes I do when I go really heavy cause seeing all big plates used to psych me out

Well last summer I was back up to doing 405 for a few with pauses with the barbarian brothers spotting me.  I am not doing more than 315 right now for about 8, with Mike Mentzre watching me from the sky.  I rarely do more than 6 to 8 reps on anything, except when it comes to burger eating.  Once it gets really easy then I add a 45 slices of bacon to each side of the plate.  I usually don't bench or incline anything but 45's, except when Sylvester Stallone comes by to spot.  Sometimes I do when I go really heavy cause seeing all big plates used to psych me out when i was on the set of all the movies back in the 80s.

no, when you know onlyme, this comes totally naturally, just like when i was hanging out with some d-celebs whose name i've forgotten back in the 50s.

keith has caught shit for a lot of what he's said around here (and most of it deserved, though i have a feeling if i got KTFO'd by a spider and lost my ability to train i'd be pissed off too), but you can't deny the man had one hell of a heyday that most of us would be damn glad to have.

i don't doubt his 585 for a second. if you saw pictures of him from the 70s the dude was built like a WSM competitor. he didn't say it was 585 competition bench, just that he did it in the gym. that's not unbelievable for a guy keith's size. yeah he name drops a lot, but i've noticed the people who give him shit for that don't have a lot of names they can drop themselves.
