Most Getbiggers lack the strength to load a bar with 225lbs.

I've seen a bunch of those videos of Brad Castleberry.....I'll be honest, I can't tell if it's real or not.   I've seen some guys that don't look like much do some impressive things.  Now, I ain't sayin it's legit, I'm just sayin I'm not sure it isn't.

Mars is a legend.  There was a time when he ran this place.  Even Ron didn't make a move without consulting him first.
