Lee Priest says he bnp 405lbs at age 19,20 and 315lb barbell curls

[bmacsys]

awesome picture, love the way those old fat 45's looked.

And the way they clanged. Not like the 45's of today coated with plastic.

The first (of several) guys I've seen in person curl 225 was Stokely Palmer in Diamond Gym, Maplewood, New Jersey. Stokley did a good 6-8 good reps with the weight. This was back in the mid-90's.

never seen a legit 225lb curl.

what was the form like on that curl? what sort of grip width? rom? jerk/swing/cheat?

never heard of stokely palmer. did he have the arms to match?

just curious if freaky curling strength equates to freaky size in the arms and forearms.

Stokely has placed in the top five at the Nationals as a heavyweight. He's one of the promoters for the Alantic City Pro Show.

From what I recall, Stokely's form was pretty strict. He used a medium-wide (shoulder width) grip with very little swing.  His arms were definitely a legit 20 inches.

If you train in a hardcore gym with serious competitive bodybuilders you will see such things. No doubt in my mind Lee Priest could curl 225.

damn.

yes, not saying it doesn't happen, just i've never seen a semi strict curl with 225lbs tbh.

i've trained in gyms with comp pro bbers, but not often.

as i've said before, priest has ideal leverages and proportions for heavy curling and keith was obviously also absurdly strong, especially in the arms (seeing as he was an arm wrestling champion) so i believe they went up over that weight also.

damn, can't even imagine trying to do any semblance of a curl with 3 plates (315) but i won't discount it.

i'd love to see someone do 225lb + curls on youtube or something. that would be awesome.

we've seen so many outrageous p/lifts, it's be good to see some odd lifts.

Lee curling 190 pounds.........

and he was swinging those, can you imagine another 125 pounds? gimme a fucckin' break.

This proves you know nothing about lifting.  How do you know if that wasn't his 3rd or 4th set.  Maybe he did other arm exercises before that and was finishing.  Another thing is anyone who has any size built from weightlifting has to lift heavy.  A little cheating is okay.  That is exactly how I did my reps with 315.  So, if you say those are wrong and don't count then you are a dumb MF'er.  It could easily explain why you have arms like you do and the limited strength and NO accomplishments.  I bet ANY body who lifts heavy and has actually done something with there strength adds movement to their lifts.  I promise you if you curl 200 pounds like Lee did you will achieve much more growth and strength than doing strict 80 lb BB curls like you do,  The proof is in the results.  Sorry son, but you post stupid shit you are going to be ousted.

hahahahhaa, my last set today was 155 for 6 and no i didn't swing the living shit out of them like you and Lee, hahahaha, dude you make it sound like you were some huge ripped mass monster, you were 300 pounds and you looked 240 with 18 inch arms, no way you ever pressed even 350 behind the neck like you claimed, now go back to the buffet fat man the adults are talking.

haaahaha you truly are a tool on this board.  Keep saying that to yourself to make you feel better.  God cause you really need it.  You need as much as you can get.  It must really be fucked for you to have to attempt to put down people who are better than you.  what does that feel like.  It must suck.  I am old and fat now and I still have more security in myself than you do.  Think about this, you are in your prime years of your life and you haven't done or achieved a fucking thing.  Dude even you have to admit that sucks.  I feel sorry for people like you.  And please don't post weights like that you did.  It embarrasses you even more.  You should close your account and start all over here and come back humble like you should be.  You have not one thing to be excited about in your life.

hahahahhaha, exactly SS but we better watch out or "onlyme" will tell us about how he met Sylvester Stallone, Muhammad Ali, The Pope, Queen Elizabeth, Charles Lindbergh, Abraham Lincoln, Moses, George Washington, Thomas Edison and Jim Brown and that he set world records in powerlifting before he became a worthless smelly fat fucck, aren't you terrified?

he use to be cool..... i'm not sure why he's so insecure and melting so much.

[willie mosconi]

I've always felt you get a better biceps workout with dumbbells anyway

[The Squadfather]

yep he used to be cool but if you've noticed the only time he gets angry and melts down is when i or someone else doubts someones lifts and then he comes unglued, a psychiatrist would have a field day with this walking blimp, hahaha, all that tells me is that he's full of shit about his own lifts and life.

HOW?!?! 

I was about to say. That's some good looking swing with 190 and I doubt he'd do anything but pick up 315 at an attempt to curl it. If he did that like it was fucking CAKE then maybe. Who wouldn't do their heavy compound movements before hand anyway?
