so far we've got 405 for 4 on flat bench, 405 for 10 on barbell rows, 550 for 2 squat, 90 pound db preachers, 405 for 3 close grip bench on the smith, he also claims 225 pound upright rows and 675 pound shrugs i just have to find the post.
It could be..maybe if his form is a little rugged and he is sloppy he could. I see guys "Moving" weight in the gym all the time that have small 2 inch reps or a ton of body english or use shoulders and back when curling or arch like a bridge when pressing just to say they can move the weight. If he is doing full ROM and strick then good for him.

I was thinking 2 inch reps just moving it without a full rep, using body english and sholders. If they were done standing you could fake it and claim your lifting 90's.

yeah from the bottom up maybe huh..
just because if you started at the top and released the conraction, thats too much weight to stop once it gets going. so standing coupled with JOJ like reps...he could me able to fabricate something like this.. does any one have a picture of this man beast

here's another doozy, 315 for 10 on good mornings and 500 for reps on stiff legged deads.

LEGS!!!

squats:

135x15x1
315x10x1
405x17x1 missed my goal by 3...no spot and didn't want to risk it.
425x10x1
365x15x1

I figured it was time to start moving the squat numbers up in overall weight used per set. I've been messing with 315 and 405 for awhile. I just realized that there are weight plates in sized other than 45lbs ;)

good mornings:

185x12x1
185x12x1
315x10x1
315x10x1

stiff leg'd deads...from the floor:

135x15x1
315x10x1
405x8x1
500x2x1
500x2x1
365x8x1  ass starting giving out on me...

barbell lunges:

135x10x1
225x6x1
135x10x1

I need to learn better balance with the 225...felt good though. My legs where shaking when I left after today. I didnt' realize how much work I did til it was over. Usually I just go with what feels good in the gym save arm day when I KNOW they need only a certain few sets.

All that on no carb! :D

If your standing on a 90 you can use a whole lot of body english. I have seen people drop the weight to the hole on a bounce pull there body back and jerk it to the upright position then do reps that do not break the the elbow joint for a "set" seem like hell on the tendons but nothing ever suprises me. If you are doing full ROM strict semi slow reps with it then god bless you man.

I'm calling ABSOLUTE bullshit on the 405lb bent over rows and 90lb dumbell preacher curls. The rest seem feasable - although his 'physique' doesn't do the weights mentioned justice.

I think he should do lighter weights with better form.

I see no reason to doubt wicked.

From what I can tell, he's a very strong guy.

As far as the preachers... Dunno how far down he went with those, or if he did it on a 90 or 45 degree bench, or how much he rocked his body. Lots of variables unknown, so hey why not?



Dave can find the qoute as to how far I went down. I said I didn't go a full extension. I went to my arm was parallel to the floor. I didn't go deeper because I was scared shitless I'd hurt myself. I only go deep with 70-80lbs. I've only been moving that kinda weight in the preachers for a few weeks. Arms are taking some time off though for awhile since my last tricep day, royally fucked my elbow. Doesn't hurt when benching or anything else, just when I do direct tricep work.

I WAS 6'@250lbs. I never claimed to be ripped or huge. Those that read my posts know I've bitched for a long time about how I'm strong as hell but don't look like it at all and it bugs the shit outta me. I'm 240 right now from cutting down on the carbs but my strength is still climbing. Though it seem slike it's taking longer for me to recover and with the deca dropping out of my system, I'm wondering if other joints will start to show signs of wear when I come off. My left shoulder starts to hurt when I SQUAT over 500 for some reason. I don't know if its' my grip width because I can't bring my hands closer, My chest keeps me from doing it.

I don't see what the deal is. I've offered to lift with anyone that wants to join in and have a good workout. OFCOURSE THERE'S BODY ENGLISH! IT'S A 405 BENT OVER BARBELL ROW!  ;D

Nope, slow and steady. You can't fuck around wiht that kinda weight or you'll get hurt. That's the last thing I want to do. I've been hurt and had to start all over again and it's taken me a year to get where I am WITH gear. I know I don't look like a monster and I don't have a bodybuilders build but I did say I'd post progress pics from using and I have no shame in what I post.


Right arm measures still at 18" and left is at 17 and 3/4" flexed. I'm sure they look 14" when they're just standing there hanging. My arms have always been a lagging body part. Just like my pussy forearms.

LA fitness off Glade Rd in Euless, TX!  ;D I'm there usually around 3-5 in the evenings right after I get off work. I'm all about meeting new people and having a good workout if you guys think you can hang but I'm not going to be unracking and RE racking weights my entire workout just so someone can "watch" me lift.

OHHH I missed it your on juice. Well that could explain the pains, if you have gone up suddenly in weights during this cycle and your body is not ready to handle the weight, or you have the mental surge to lift heavy but not the physical side yet. Just thinking out loud.

hahahahaha, i can tell you one thing, if i was to train with you we would be doing FULL REPS WITH GOOD FORM, none of this heaving 405 on "barbell rows" and that type of shit, dollars to donuts says you would be humbled.

On this note. I will gladly pay for a one day pass for anyone in my area that's willing to workout with me just to verify this stuff. I'll put it out there. Just pick what day you want or what bodyparts you want to work, and we'll hit'em! I have no qualms about the lifts I post and you guys can check out the log and watch my progression from where I was til when I started using, etc. I'm kinda shocked at DAVE calling me out though.

He looks strong, and holding a bit of test water. Some of the strongest pound for pound guys have that grainy
dense almost stringy muscle. I got a feel take away the water retention and thats what his body would tend towards naturaly.

One another note Ive watcher a 180lb roofer make a 220lb buff bodybuilder beg on his knees and cry not to hit him.
THe Biger guy almost jumped off the roof. ANd both were hard-Timers from the Cali system.
Frankly, a lot of big puffy BBers are pussies.

Hey somone take him up on his offer.
