Natural?

Calling bull shit on this.  Come clean and say how many sets?  Even then it would be hard to believe. One hundred reps with 275 lbs?  Put up a video of you doing 50 reps with that weight and I will give you the benefit of the doubt that you got 100 reps.

I think he meant total reps, over a number of  sets.

So maybe ten sets of ten reps with 275lbs and he did all the other exercises listed the same day?

thank you, hypertrophy! i am a fan of your work on myocytes.

Natural?

[GymnJuice]

2 in 1 utility room/bathroom is not Getbigger style living. That must be at your GF house.

First off, you look amazing.

Secondly, I'm turning 40 on Tuesday, so I think I'll try this workout:

255 x 100 squat
315 x 100 deadlift
125 x 100 overhead press
180 x 100 dumbbell bench

^ K wait, wut.

If I recall correctly, in one of the Bros vs. Pros deadlift contests, Toney Freeman deadlifted 275 for about 32 reps, weighing 275 [deadlift body weight challenge].

The True Adonis once claimed to deadlift 225 for 113 reps, and everyone called bullshit.

That was back in 2006.

Personally, I think you look amazing [I'm surprised you don't shave your body hair being that ripped - just to show your muscle definition, which you obviously have lots of].

Now I see you did that over a number of sets.

Hmm...I'm tempted to do the same workout you did.

I wouldn't be looking forward to 100 reps with 315 on the DL though...the max I ever got was 315 for 17, I think.

Maybe I could try that with 250...or just do 275 like you did.

How are you feeling after this workout?

That workout seems to be more work than a typical Strongman contest. So congratulations for making it through it in a relatively short time frame.

Being older, and going for 40 tons...maybe I'll shoot for doing a 40-ton workout in five hours.

Your post has inspired me.

Looking good dude .. impressive “work capacity”

Thanks my neuro-atypical friend. Im glad to hear you are up for a similar feat. I feel pretty good, it was actually easier than I was expecting. I did a couple 100 and 150 rep squat workouts with 225 to prepare in the preceding months, and honestly the 150 was harder. I had a hard time falling asleep that night, and thought I may have contracted the dreaded "rhabdo" (oh brother).

I made sure to take it easy yesterday and the day prior (no running). That helped a lot! Ordinarily I am more stiff due to running.

I would say shoot for 60-70% of your 1RM when choosing the weights. Anything less than that would probably be too easy. You might also want to pick a 5th exercise, since you have more tonnage to do. Or do more reps at a lower weight per exercise.

I hope I can do 40 tons when Im your age! Happy upcoming birthday!

Solid.  Best wishes

[Grape Ape]

cess - f'n awesome man.

Big props - looking great.

Feels like the deadlifts would be the hardest, form breaks at higher reps/fatigue.

Just going by the weight you listed.

[cephissus]

thanks grape! squats is the hardest for me... Its always been an unnatural motion for me, since day one. For whatever reason, im good at deadlifts.

 hope the y board is treating you well.


Also thank you, never1ashow!
