THE INCREDIBLE JERK Doing 100 lbs DB curls in PI???

[MarvinEderFan]

I always found this suspect.

The Incredible Jerk is seen finishing a rep with with appears to be around seated 100 lbs DB curls at the end of the training montage in Pumping Iron.

Sure, Lou is seeing repping with 240 or so on half-rep push presses, but he's also struggling with around 180 on the incline barbell press and just before is seen strugging with about 80-90 lbs on barbell curls.

This seems suspect.  All the training vids on YouTube do not show the Incredible Jerk moving great weight. What gives?

O'Hearn told me that Lou would curl the 100s when they'd work out.  He seemed impressed.

the guy was 6'5 220 before he even started lifting, I'm sure he didn't need to push alot of weight to reach 280. Don't forget, they didn't have aluminum plated back in the 60's-70's, so that's another reason you don't see Lou hoisting "405".

actually it's 205 on the inclines and he doesn't struggle with it, he manhandles it like a toy just pumping it like the empty bar until he needs help after rep 12 or 13.
