I could care less if you were or you weren't. I'm amusing myself at 1am
Well to save me time and you the embarassment of trying to say I am full of shit when everything I say I can prove unlike most people on here, go to
www.fitness4x4.com Dragan is a friend of mine. I think he talks about Dr. Nick Delgado who I introduced to Dragan and now he travels around the world doing these exhibitions.
Dragan the record holder at 45 lbs lifts, has invited Dr Nick Delgado after congratulating him from his great effort at Arnold Classic, will observe Nick as he appears in London to compete with 40 pound dumbbells.
I have accepted the Challenge May 19, 20, 2007 coming up in London to compete in the open division against all athletes and we are forming Team USA with Tim Nash .

As you might have heard of our recent success at the Arnold Classic Fitness Show
Dr. Nick Delgado ’s competed defeating all challengers at the Arnold Classic. In all, 25 men and 4 women took the challenge, signing up in person at the event. Competitors were allowed to choose the weight of their choice using the adjustable Powerblock dumbbells.
www.ultimatemedicalresea rch.com -See Resources allows you to order your own set of Powerblocks.
This year, 2007, Friday March 2 and Saturday March 3, Dr. Nick arrived to challenge
and compete in the Dragan Challenge for Vertical lifts. See fitness4x4.com see Nick on stage competing with Dragan and Bill Kazmaier announcing the event-see challenge.
Here was my record performance at the Arnold Classic:
1005 lifts at 30 lbs
1000 lifts at 25 lbs- no rest between, drop set -
200 lifts at 40 lbs*
Total 2200 lifts - Time to complete was a little over two hours*
This unofficial record was observed by growing crowd. The end of the competition was also filmed by a participant, who observed my lifts and recorded them on video film.
To understand my output of Energy one has to apply:
Newton ’s Law (Distance x number of reps x weight lifted)
Moving weight 55 inches x 1005 repetitions x 30 Weight = 1,658,250
55 inches x 1000 reps x 25 weight = 1,375,000
55 inches x 200 reps x 40 weight = 440,000
Total units of Energy expended =3,473,250 in two hours!
No one was even close in competition...possibly only 3 or 4 people in the world could
do this such as Dragan or one of his son’s, and I haven't hit my top ability yet. Perhaps
if I had been pushed by a competitor I could have kept going. Although I was sore and exhausted at the end of the competition, by the following day I was ready to compete again. But because no one exceeded my previous day’s performance, I did not have to
lift again.
I am training harder than at any time in my life, while balancing my career, family life with my 4 children, as a single father, trust me this is important to me.
Last Friday in training I did without rest
45 lbs x 75 lifts x 55 inches move weight distance= 185,625
40 lbs 300 lifts x 55 = 671,000

30 lifts 169 lifts x 55 = 278,800
35 lifts 130 lifts x 55 = 250,250
40 lbs 105 lifts x 55 = 231,000
45 lbs 50 lifts x 55 = 123,750
50 lbs x 25 lifts x 55 inches= 68,750
