You have to prove this shit I mean a 500lb bent over row at 176 you said he'd break himself in half with that much weight and weighted dips are these parallel or bench to bench dips b/c if it's bench to bench I do that with 200lbs and I'm not even a 300lb bencher. Damn I mean as much as I'm laughin my ass off b/c this sounds so unreal I really do wanna see if this guy can perform these lifts or is he all talk???
Hey are you sure your adding up the weights right????
Try using a calculator then post his real lifts.

Look, whether this guy can do what you say or NOT, you are in the wrong place looking for sponsors. The guys on this forum are either competitive powerlifters or people who aspire to be a competitive powerlifter. We all work for a living, and none of us make a Hell of a lot of money.
One thing that many of us share in common, is a knowledge of the iron game, and the shared experience of having seen or even done some amazing feats of strength. There is a well known member of this board who benches over 600 and squats over 800, who I know for a fact has eyewitnessed many 700 plus benches. We know strength. And we know what makes sense. We are not buying. If your guy ends up being the first man under 200 lbs to win the world's strongest man contest then I will be the first in line to kiss your ass, and say that I was wrong, but until then I am a bit skeptical.
Jay, I apologize, but I feel compelled to go further into this curl issue. Svend Karlson is the current world's strongest man. In a recent article in powermag, he talked about having done a cheat curl with I believe 330 lbs. Now this was done by a man we have all seen on TV, and whom is well known for being insanely strong. And guess what, that was less than a 110% bodyweight curl. Manfred Hoeberl, a 26 inch armed, 340+ lb freak, cheat curled about the same as what you are telling us this 176 lb guy can do. Manfred was so strong, that he could squeeze a can of coke till it burst. No freakin way a guy half his size is curling that. No way.
You want to shut me up, have this guy do some of these things in an actual powerlifting meet where we can verify the results, and I will gladly retract everything I have said.

Dam Brian you do your home work bro! Sven can curl 330lbs? Holy shit! that is incredable. But considering who is doing it, i of course believe it. Your right no way in hell is a 175lber doing that. Its a kid who is writing this shit anyway. He is just talking shit. The curl and deadlift gave that away.
But If "Blackman" is really a superhero like Ray says then we will hear of him sooner or later. If he is real then i too will kiss your ass and say i am wrong as well.
Maybe powermag could cover his lifts , along with us kissing his ass! What do ya think Brian?

I have an old video of the Barbarian Brothers doing cheat curls with 315. Lots of face slapping going on before the lift - ha!
speaking of that, anybody at the arnold to see the beating Scot Mendelson gets before he benches? His wife is a martial artist and she cracks him with two hands before he hits the bench...good stuff. "Clears" his head he told my reporter...

You can only get hit so much.
One of my handlers is a NHB dude and he gets carried away with that shit. One meet he hit me so much i fuckin felt like i had a concusion before my liftoff. by deadlift time , before i went out to pull i knew it was coming so blocked it and said enough! That night were with our wives, walking the strip (Daytona) and he fuckin slapps me again (not hard, playin around). He said sorry bro it is just becoming a habit, i said one more time and were gonna roll right here and now! lol we love to tell that story!

Pucker up buttercup. Hell yes, I am there, if and when Blankman, err, I mean Blackman rears his muscular head, I will kiss one cheek while you kiss the other, and heavywear can cover the story. It will be funny though that the two most muscular people in the picture will be the ones doing the kissing.
heavywear can probably check my numbers for sure on that Svend Karlson thing, but I am pretty sure that is accurate. I am at work and the article is in my reading room, err, the bathroom, err, my study at the house.
hear hear to the you can only get hit so much. I am not someone who likes to get hit before, during or after a lift. I know Mendy likes that shit, but it aint for me. I spent 4 years in full contact karate trying like Hell not to get hit. I aint interested in getting hit voluntarily now.
heavywear, the Cleausau thing made me laugh so hard I chortled.
