Strength Challenge to B. Hank.

[Matt]

Brian is a flat out narcissist. So, it doesn’t surprise he doesn’t speak to his brother anymore hasnt in sometime.

Brian’s brother is actually a stand out human being. Runs a non profit orphanage and does a lot of charitable work in the community. However, Brian being Brian gobbled up all the inheritance money to live in Hawaii and “surf” full time.

Now, Brian's lifestyle is starting to make sense to me.

I'm curious about one thing though - how has Brian managed to not foul up the whole money situation? How he acquired the large sum makes sense...how surely he could have messed things up by now, right?

Or did his father set things up so everything is held in trust, and Brian is just given money by the month/year, making it impossible to screw up?

Or are some of the allegations accurate of Brian just trolling us all? Is he much smarter than he leads on?

For him to still have access to all this money is impressive to me...or maybe it was all just set up by his dad so it can't fail?

For me, I don't 100% trust myself not to lose my life's savings, after a particularly exploitative woman I met in 2018. So I've actually made it impossible even for me to access the money i need just to pay my meager $942 USD/monthly in living expenses for the rest of my life.

So no matter what, I can't screw up THAT.

Frankly, as long as I don't need to get a job, that's fine. A car, gym insurance, and a few extras are cool with me. A Top Sirloin once a week is good. Some new gym gear here and there. UFC Fight Pass.

Really - what do I even need? I've always been a total minimalist.

I'm OK risking the rest if the right investment pops up. But Canada's economy has been bad lately.

I have found even if you earned it yourself, it can lead to complacency. I have made basic living pretty easy for myself. That is probably why I didn't start training this year until June. And that's bad. I don't want to fall in a rut. But my youngest son moved in in January, and we were hanging out all the time.

So how does Brian do it? Is he more responsible than the board gives him credit for? Or did his dad just set everything up for him to be so easy?

Lastly - who furnished Getbig with so much of Brian's personal information?

Thanks webstar.

Brian has shared all this information.

Christ, he posted a video of him rag dolling his son and fighting with his ex in parking lot.

The video has been deleted by him.

[Matt]

Jesus man are you still trying to argue a or attempt counts despite your spotter touching the bar it doesn’t matter if they barely touched it they touched it that’s a no lift by all means lift it clean next time you were close

I don't know if you're petty, are just an asshole when someone outlifts you, or are trolling.

I got that lift on my own. Yes, a spotter touching the bar after I explicitly instructed him not to is a disqualification. That's not disputed. I even uploaded the video making it clear that I would say "Help" if I know it's not going up:

https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cx85dbuPvgz/

^ That's 300, and it's obvious I have 10% more in me.

Since I didn't say "Help", it can be concluded that I knew it was going up. Are you saying i don't know when I can get a bench? 

Do you think my training partner who doesn't even bench 225 would know better than me? 

And look at him here, intervening on a 275-lb bench press without me asking when 275 is obviously well below my max:

https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cw7PhHLut9W/

^ So it's clear that he is basing it on what is heavy for him / normal people, and not a refined spotter, who knows the right amount to spot.

What is disputed [but only by you and Walter Sobchak] is whether or not I actually could/would have gotten that on my own, which is clear from the speed and trajectory of the 325 press that it was going up no matter what.

You also said the bar dropped, so I slowed down the video, which clearly showed there was no such drop - so you lost credibility making that statement.

Watch the slow-motion video here:

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cx8m4MfxQ_H/

Brian - how much money would you be willing to put up in escrow with OneMoreRape in a bet that I will get 335-lb next week?

[Matt]

Woke up hungry today for the first time in a week have been sick the last few mornings with acid reflux in ndigestuin and no appetite so it is a great sigh

I never get sick. I haven't had a cold since 2011.

You get injured a lot and require a lot of surgeries.

Regarding food, there is a Subway nearby, and I put $200 on my Subway card, and they gave me an extra $100 for doing that.

So if you do the math, the sub below only cost me $5.70 USD. That's a premium sub too, for 2008 USA loss leader prices.

But that's the nice thing about living off your savings - you save a lot of money preparing things and getting deals like that. That brings my cost of living down to comical levels.

So how did you get your large sum of money, Brian?

As I understand it, you're a trust fund baby?

Brian - how much money would you be willing to put up in escrow with OneMoreRape in a bet that I will get 335-lb next week?

I hope you do get 335lbs next week I am rooting for you I want us both to win. However fuck no it does not count if your spotter touches the bar how the fuck you keep trying to argue otherwise is beyond me. If a spotter touches the bar you did not get the lift on your own he helped would you have gotten it without help I have no idea but you didn't. Again it is not a theoretical list bench more than 315lbs on your own and I will gladly update the leaderboard.

Brian on your 350 x 2 bench that for some reason it’s ok for you to talk about from the past didn’t your spotter help you with the second rep? I can’t remember. I f he didn’t then never mind maybe I don’t remember it.Check into that when you get a chance.

Of course it doesn't count officially!

I'm merely saying I would have gotten that 325 on my own even if my spotter had died from the type of seizure you had while bench pressing 315, and been unable to touch the bar.

Of course touching the bar disqualifies the lift. I'm simply saying that I had that weight on my own. That is the point of contention here.

But since I know I had 325 or 330 on Monday night, I know I'll be able to get 335 or 340 next week. Unless I'm having an off-day, which I find can be unpredictable about 25-30% of the time.

Based on what I know of my previous times getting back to strength training, I'll complete 330+ next week, and eventually my gains/re-gains will slow down due to diminishing returns [and our bodies being adaptation machines].

That said, who are the Top 3 right now for bench press?

How about squat and deadlift?

I only have my recent 450-lb deadlift online so far, but I'll be at 500 again this month.

Then those gains too will slow down, but I just want to push it as far over 500 as possible.

Who are the Top 3 right now?

[38 returns]

Matt there are only 3 people in this

RO- who is miles ahead

You- who have put up a decent 3 plates and will do more but at a lower weight so much stronger than Brian

Brian- who insists everyone puts up current videos but won't himself.



Is he doing the other lifts you stated matt? or has he chickened out of that?

[38 returns]

oh and Brian has set this contest up and is going to finish last out of 3. its his modus operandi!

Bhanks cannot bench 315.  It's that simple.  If we're going by verified posted video, then post-op his is Zero.

Right now I don't think he does 275. 

[bhank]

No absolutely not they did not touch the bar

It's an official list we are not going to argue what people could do it is a list of what they actually did. You are currently tied with me in 2nd place. By all means press more than 315lbs next week by yourself and you will take 2nd to yourself.

Which would still be more than you dumbass and it is for the calendar year 2023 we will do another one in 2024. I don't know where I will finish 2023 I am not Nostradamus but I will finish higher than 315

Please discuss them.

Do you manage the wealth you were given yourself, or did your father streamline it for you so you would be paid for life from a trust?

[Matt]

I am happy to make this a bench, squat, and strict curl contest. I'm happy to take 2 out of 3 lifts.

[38 returns]

the finish places will be

ro by a mile
matt- if you tie on weight surely bodyweight should be a factor
Brian - an old weight he can't lift today but will insist everyone else can.

instead of Brian doing mats actual challnege
or janes challenge
or my challenge
or kranks challenge


PUSSY

[Matt]

oh and Brian has set this contest up and is going to finish last out of 3. its his modus operandi!

Hey, that's a podium finish for Brian.

I would like Walter Sobchak to enter the contest also, just so B. Hank has someone to beat.

You are the keeper of the ailments and need to have a Health Care Proxy over Bhanks since you are more familiar with his health ailments than even he himself is. 

[38 returns]

BigRo will win for sure then.

I am happy to make this a bench, squat, and strict curl contest. I'm happy to take 2 out of 3 lifts.

GREAT IDEA

Brian will bottle out of this though as we can all laugh at him squatting. Again.

[Matt]

Bhanks cannot bench 315.  It's that simple.  If we're going by verified posted video, then post-op his is Zero.

Right now I don't think he does 275.

If you're just talking about official standings, that's fine. But if you don't understand that you will have to get 330 to beat me, thats silly thinking.

It should be clear to you that I sill got that 325, requiring you to get 330.

Also, how are ties dealt with?
