I'm just saying he couldn't of achieved that without AS.

I agree with you....but to not be impressed with an 805 x 2 deadlift close to bb comp shape is kinda crazy.

I must say that I like his gym. Dirty plates, old bars, NOTHING pretty in the gym.

B True

Its Metroflex in Arlington. I've lifted there several times and its a BLAST!!!! No nice things at all. Its nasty, dirty, and its great. Its really cheap to join, and the guy, Brian, who runs it is really really nice. If you want to go sometime, just holler at me and we'll take a trip B!! They play all kinds of hard music and there are NO people there who aren't serious about lifting. You should come with me sometime!!

Sweet!!! I need to train at this gym sometime!! I live only 200 miles north of Dallas-Arlington-Ft. Worth area.
 
Just watched that video ---WOW!

Few points that everyone should take from that

1) His intensity is through the roof
2) If he's not working out, he's eating
3) Large compound movements w/ heavy weights
4) No need for separate arm day

Not sure if his training would be called high volume or if all those sets are just warmups to last main working set. (I just couldnt tell since almost all the weight was ridiculous-- I mean I guess 8 plates on tbar would be a warmup if your last set is 12 plates x 8:insane: )
 
People on this board underestimate and do not realize the true strength of these guys. Coleman can probably military press 435lbs for a single. I love the video!! I also downloaded "Blood and Guts" and "Pumping Iron" . I like them all.

Today, Arnold would look like a stick figure next to Ronnie. In pumping iron, Arnold is squatting the same amount of weight as Ronnie is using on military press.
 
He talks funny - I expected a deep booming voice, he sounds like Mike Tyson :p

"errr lightweight".. :D

RC is big and strong, but when I watch it, I'm kinda blase, you know it just goes over my head. Not sure why.

cause you dont train for the same purposes....silly.:D

and....you dont eat fries and chicken while cutting...

and....youre not a cop....

and.....you dont throw your weights around......

and.....you dont wear striped lycra pants....

hehehe. :)
 
Well big weights is big weights - it's impressive as hell. But it's like so out there that after 3 plates you stop counting :)

It's just like science fiction :spit:
 
We also have to remember, that Ronnie was 285lbs in the video. He was pressing a lot of weight, but it was only 30lbs over his bodyweight.

Lets do the math:

Coleman: 315lbs / 285lbs = 110 percent of bodyweight

Average Joe: 192lbs / 175lbs = 110 percent of bodyweight

Still it is impressive. . .the frontal squats and DB presses were amazing.
 
All the clothes those dudes wore were hilarious. Ronnie with his pants, and his shirts that said "Shut up and Squat" and "Kick Ass". And Brian with the cutoff shorts and camoflouge sleeveless is definately questionable lol

Oh and how funny is it how he always says "light weight" until the 6 plates front squat and then goes "that was heavy!"


You know you've watched the video too much when you start saying to yourself during your set "Light Weight Baby"
