Big playa grip nice
About an hour after a buddy came over and me, with my show off strength did another rep and then immediately picked up my Inch Dumbbell replica. That'd be nice but it took me ages to get going during the actual session FFS lol
You should get a pic of that up some big heavy lifters

bro how many kilometers in 1 pound? so daughter can make calculations. like if yo bench 400 pounds how many kilometer that is ? also dude on tanker said in scotland yo calculate weights in stones and rocks lol. yo more backwards there than here in texas lol.
That's hard to believe lol
1-kilogram (kg) is 2.2lbs. An old english 'stone' is 14lbs. 400lbs is a fraction over 180kg

sounds like a pro workout here.

Last cycle I was 330lbs. I deliberately got down to 315 or so.
Very effective work out
where do you want to go 1-2 years from now? sub 300?
Love when I have to google some of the exercises, lol. This type of training is super interesting.
Almost certainly. I think my best power to weight ratio along with a kinda 'look' was 290lbs. But honestly it's less that (I care less about those as I age) as it is health. As nice as being 'big' is for the ego there aren't many 'BIG' old men. The oldest mofo's out there are light.

Well, yeah. Guys who know how to train to make gains don't depend on a ton of gear. 30 mgs of D-bol is a TREMENDOUS advantage to a proper workout routine. It's the fools who say it does nothing and you need 1000 mgs of test and tren -- because they're stupid and lazy.
99% of it comes down to impatience. To a lesser degree the ability to retain some of the gains (which I've addressed several times). I'm also at the point, regardless of what I weigh, where I'm not really trying to get bigger. I do NOT need to be 340lbs

Interesting that you mention forearm work and do hammer curls. Forearms are such an overlooked bodypart. For me, they're the one muscle group that responded quickly. ( Everything ELSE takes work!) By the way, have you ever noticed Arnolds forearms kinda suck!
The Suppleminator
V.I.P.
I think a lot of early grip work as a kid built the foundation for my forearms to respond with practically no work. Maybe I should have concentrated on squatting! lol
100%. I've stated that I beat many of my lighter competitors simply cos I trained to be stronger on the other compounds. Indeed some deliberately stayed 'in their lane' bodyweight wise. F**k that lol. Simply you're not strong if you don't bench 300+, press 200+, squat 400+ and so on.

I've seen your videos on your 'hacked' account (by the way... you posted again yesterday lol). I could lift you by the throat while you curl ha ha .
Monstro has a very nice home gym with, I think, the biggest dumbbells looking to be about 80-100lbs
training routine is very effective

bro post up pics, hopefully full frontal
Ok. I'll link some Instagram pics below (mostly of me showing off and doing demos rather than the actual medley competition)
I left before prizes were given out. So I just checked how I did. I won the 'pros' and was 2nd overall. The fella that won HAS trained grip and was super fast. I think I was one of only 3 to do all the medley and he still knocked seconds off my time.
Pic of me picking up over 264lbs on my super stiff Ironmind Rolling Thunder handle as a demo (at some point I repped it for shits n giggles) and also (click forward) me hammer curling a 53kg (118lbs) thick handled dumbbell:
