he was drinking a Speed Stack, hahaha, what a jackass, maybe if he laid off the ephedrine he might actually have the strength to press those all the way down without having to whip himself into a meth induced frenzy.

120lb dumbells is more than most Pro's can do and here you are making fun of him?


Most Pro's can't even toss around 100lb dumbells without alot of effort.


A 185lb guy who is 6'0" doing 5 reps with 120lb dumbells is better than anyone in this thread can do.


Meth induced frenzy or not.

1.Being a Bodybuilder doesn't mean you're automatically strong.

2.Most of the people on this board might lift weights but that doesn't mean they're all monsters who can throw around 120lb dumbells.

I would bet that less than 5% of the people who have ever posted here can do 120lb dumbells for more than 5 reps.

yoru right...how much you can lift has no bearings on how you place. but lifting wiehgts everyday at the intensity that you must to getbig...does automatically make you strong.
2.Most of the people on this board might lift weights but that doesn't mean they're all monsters who can throw around 120lb dumbells.
most of the people on this board are dedicated bodybuilders........why else would they be posting on an internet forum dedicated to it? (im sure even alexxx goes to the gym consistently and works out fairly hard)
I would bet that less than 5% of the people who have ever posted here can do 120lb dumbells for more than 5 reps.

Maybe,But you have to remember this is the INTERNET and 99% of people don't tell the truth here. These people claiming they can rep with 120lb dumbells probaly can hardly rep with 80lb dumbells.


In reality most PRO's can't even rep with 160lb dumbells and I see people under 180lbs claiming they can alot on the internet.

Hell...The pictures you see of Pro's holding these 180lb dumbells aren't even real..They don't lift with those weights. They are only holding them for photography purposes and someone like cutler could probably hardly do 2 or 3 reps with them.

Most of the Pro's in reality can't benchpress over 500lbs...Someone Repping with 180's would be able to do 500 easly considering barbells are alot easier than dumbells. Benching 300 on a bar is alot easier than benching 2 150lb dumbells.


Funny thing is...A great deal of people on the Internet claim to use these massive weights like 120 or 150lb barbells..But I've worked in a gym for years and this isn't one of those fitness clubs,It's a gym where 60% of the people are over 200 and built. I see people using barbells over 120lbs maybe a few times a month and even then it's just for show.

160lb dumbells? I find that EXTREMLY hard to believe. I'm more muscular than Layne and I can't even rep half that.

Actually Layne probably does at least 160's by now.  Here's a video of him doing 150's and this was a few months back:   http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7746028963599913771&q=%22Layne+Norton+Pressing+150+lb+dumbbells+music+video%22+playable%3Atrue (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7746028963599913771&q=%22Layne+Norton+Pressing+150+lb+dumbbells+music+video%22+playable%3Atrue)

I assume you are having a laugh. If you are serious then you are perhaps a jealous tool with no life.They are not half-presses. His form is pretty good. You know you  could not do that so why pretend it's easy.
good luck with your training. By the way, a lot of your posts are quite funny.
