Mark Bell Power Cast 224 w/tommywishbone
« on: September 30, 2017, 03:36:49 PM »
OK, it took a little convincing but the majority of my real life friends seem to think this Mark Bell Power Cast isn't too unwatchable. We shot the video about one month ago. I know it's OVER TWO HOURS long... just watch a little but here and there. Hopefully we discuss some topics that should be "educational" for powerlifters, bodybuilders and all athletes who wish to improve there performance.

Hopefully you will laugh a few times as well.

I'm big and strong and really old so I can take insults with the best of them. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Thank you gentlemen. All the best, Tom Pheil aka tommywishbone.

Tom sent this over to me a couple of days ago to watch. Honestly, for me this is one of the best interviews I've seen. There should be a movie made about his stories. This is one of those must watch interviews. Knowledgeable would be an understatement.

Hi C. Hope you've been well brother. You are not the first to make that request. It's coming... I promise you.

I have the Masters World Championships on November 4 in Las Vegas. I'll most likely wait until after that contest, but if Mark Bell wants me to do it earlier- then I will. Will 500 x 20 test me? Yes sir it will... but I've done it many times so I know I can do it.

Damn beast dude. I haven't tried reps with 500. I assume I could about 10. :P

My last deadlifting session before competition should be 650 x 3.  As long as my terrible cardio holds up 500 x 20 is not unreasonable in my experience.

Stay cool man.

That was a nice introduction in the first couple of minutes, Tom  :)
I will listen to the whole podcast later during a walk.

TOMMYW ..... I did not know that you were involved in Powerlifting.

I have only watched the first couple of minutes but intend to watch the entire 2 hours when I get some time, but here are a few questions for you since my powerlifting days are long gone .....and those good old days included the likes of Bill 'Peanuts' West, George Frenn, and Pat Casey's first 615 pound bench press when the lions roared when it was accomplished, and Bill Starr and many others.....

And I cannot fail to mention Steve Dussia.

And lots of the historical stuff and people (odd lifters, tennis balls wrapped behind the knees for heavy squats, etc.) most of which  I have long forgotten.

1. Did you know or had you ever met Bill Star? If you ever had the opportunity to discuss his powerlifting days with him, you'd have enough material to write a great book with a hell of a lot of unbelievable stories about his good old York days. Have you ever read his OLNY THE STRONG WILL SURVIVE?

2. Ditto .... Mike Lambert .... Powerlifting USA.

3. And Gus of course.

Yada yada yada......

Thanks, TW.

Bill Star? Well, oddly enough I've never spoken with Bill. Do I know who he is? Hell yes. I have read his entire book. He is a real legend in strength sports.

Mike Lambert? Great guy. I was a subscriber to Powerlifting USA starting in 1981 and remained a subscriber for YEARS.

Gus Rethwisch?  Another powerlifting legend. All those great Budweiser Record Breaker meets in Hawaii. and a real nice cat. I see him each November in Las Vegas at the WBPADL World Championships.

Tom I watched that whole youtube video a few days ago and loved it! Had no idea that was you even though I have read posts by you on here for years. Really enjoyed hearing about Golds Venice back in the day and some of your insight on anabolics.

Hey Tom....absolutely fantastic interview. Your stories took me back to our time working together at Golds Venice. A few things....I believe the tribulus supplement in video was called Mumia aka Mummy...lol. And the old schmoe that Chris talked about beating up-wrastling women who wore a dress shirt and slacks was Lloyd.  Remember him? He trained at near midnite. Would do 1 leg pistol kick squats and hoist a very heavy single dumbbell.  And yes...Old Dudley and his muscle anatomy shirt. If he started talking to me during my workout...it was almost impossible to get away.

 Great stories brother. Was hoping some Tom Magee talk could have happened being strength and physique was discussed...as we both knew Magee. Anyway...great post brother. You look fantastic and you are still the same great guy.
