Greg Kovacs repped that much
As far as I know, Greg only did the incline Smith machine.

Ruptured my bicep tendon removing the door pad on a truck.

I tore my bicep lifting a welding machine into a shipping container. There was like an iron loop at the end and I pulled with one finger, using the hand I supinate on deads. I mean I've held almost 1K on a very short rack dead with a mixed grip with no tears. I must have slightly bended the arm. Docs didn't want to operate but I insisted and I'm extremely glad I did, otherwise there would be zero bicep left (already had very small and short bis).

His reaction to his first life experience between 1-2 mins is interesting.

After that it shows the bruise on his bicep and explains from there.

kinda, kinda, kinda, kinda, kinda..


Fucks sake I fucking hate that shit.

There is NEVER any need to say "kinda" or "kind of" when you are talking.

Next time you hear someone say it replay what they said and omit the "kinda/kind of" and you will see its not needed.

my guess is he made the pec crossover pulley with a single pulley.

There is a good reason they are made with double pulleys. The returning force is very hard on a single pulley.

Feel the difference between a single pulley and a double pulley you will understand why it will tear pecs

This fella repeats a certain word a little excessively. I feel for the interrogators, I would have went insane. His speech should be illegal, I don't know how any girl could stand it.
