« on: December 04, 2006, 01:15:09 PM »

It's been speculated that he is the anonymous powerlifter that did an interview on t-mag a while ago. The anonymous powerlifter started juicing at 14 yrs old. Anyone know if it was him?

He is/was the number two guy on Westside Barbell Club. Louie (Simmons) is the #1.

Google for Westside Barbell Club

They use bands and chains, also box squats. Speed bench and GPP are other things that those guys are known for.

Billy Mimnaugh and Mike Wolfe knows most on Tate, I suspect.

This spring he got himself in shape, lost a lot of fat.

Westside Barbell is known for recommending staying on AAS for very long periods of time, how long he's been on is anybody's guess. His blood pressure was pretty bad before he got his weight down anyway.

He's got a website where he sells stuff, there are also a couple of articles there:

Tate is all over T-Nation.  He has lost a ton of weight recently and looks fantastic.

I was surprise to see how he looks pretty lean these days, comparing to how he used to look. I'm now hooked to elitefitness.com ;D

Powerlifter guys are getting as bad as bodybuilders about  how they tell you about all this hardcore training they do and new techniques but fail to mention they do dball too.
