Title: Clint Walker showing his home gym
Post by: MAXX on January 19, 2023, 01:28:36 PM
Old time actor from 50's/60's era.

Big guy for a natural! 6'6, 245

Pretty funny I was just expanding my own home gym and I got some ideas from him. He had the right idea..




With Steve Reeves

idk but I doubt it. Like he said he wasn't a champion weightlifter and it wasn't his goal.

Reverse curl 245... Very few in the world can do that in a regular curl.

Yeah I know it’s sounds crazy but I’m pretty sure it was him, maybe not Bodyweight but maybe 200 lbs or something also crazy.

Funk would prob know.

What a legend. But if we’re taking alphas you can’t be a small man. If you weigh less than 180 you’re not in that category

Do you ever use cross body curls or only hammer heads?

Cross body hammers? Yes I do them sometimes. Mainly I stick with ez bar curls, alternate db curls and chin ups now but I cycle in hammers. I belive hammers give lots of arm thickness when done right. Most people do hammers at the end light weight for a couple sets, I would say they are more important than regular curls if you haven’t done them and they should be hammered. Regular hammers and cross body hammers both great for thickness.

Looks like a slightly less gay version of Travolta here. A lot more muscles than Travolta as well. It’s funny how dagos defend Travolta and say he’s not gay. I literally heard Bravo and Valentino defending him on an Rx show  ;D

Besides his barrel chest and square shoulders on that height, his forearm flexors are very impressive, his upper arms although reasonably thick for his height don’t have much shape, his flexors really give his arms a thick solid look.

Amazing picture of young Tinnerino
It is just before his competition with Arnie.
They competed at end of the September, this magazine is dated October, during that period they were on the stands from couple of months back I guess.
His legs as a whole is super impressive.
He was a nobody outside the bodybuilding community but I can't imagine how much pussy he got in his prime, even Arnold mentions how he was surrounded with girls in the day of the competition.

Tinnerino was a pimp at one time before he found Jesus and became a minister, his next gig.

Being a pimp doesn't mean he hasn't got his fair share of pussies.

Yes sorry I meant cross body hammers. I saw you saying before you mostly focused on hammers. I take note when someone with big arms says something like that. I find hammers are better myself alright for thickness because the shape is there already . Thx brah

I think Tinnerino was a false minister.  But then where faith in the Nazarene is concerned, I tend to hold people to the same standard I did myself when I was His follower.

Bruce Lee had a universal machine too, that guy John Little bought it, and had it shipped home.

(https://i0.wp.com/blog.marcypro.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/bruce-lee-circuit-trainer-2.jpg).

Lee also had a York power rack also, it was sold on Ebay about 20 years ago for relatively not much money, around $900-1200. The lineage was neat too - Lee to Dan Inosanto to Ron Balicki, who then sold it.

Our High School was similar - One Universal machine, one Universal leg curl/leg extension, and a pommel horse. There was one Olympic bar and an incline bench, but you had to get special permission to use it.
