queen shit

I'm a year into to Casey Johnston's couch to barebell, fucking stoked I can RDL 125 for reps, and I feel like weak little child in this thread. Lotta amazing swole peeps here of all gender, though.

betting everything i have on the gorillas.

My girlfriend recently took me to her unbelievably bougie Hudson Yards gym and asked “Why is that guy barefoot and holding the bar wrong?” I lit up like a Christmas tree.

eh i'd put it at 'reasonably dedicated hobbyist', so whatever the lifting equivalent is of someone who runs a couple marathons a year, but is never going to come close to breaking any records.

yes it's an accomplishment for anyone who decides to start lifting and makes it to this weight but also posting it as an example of your alpha or whatever strength is extreme levels of delusion

woke politicians benching this for reps

I love you and Wyman's responses, both explaining in detail and NAH equally valid bsky.app/profile/patr...

That’s a warmup set.

Cofnas should try to fight 100 Gorillas. Just do it. What's the worst that can happen ? Just go for that Silverback Nate. Do it.

A single gorilla could deadlift that with one hand.

I think because of how their hips work, a gorilla cannot deadlift to proper form so 315 lp. does beat them, technically... so checkmate libs? (an ave gorilla can *throw* over 800 lp. and can probably lift something like 1,900 lp.; an ave chimp can lift over 600 lp.)

When I saw the number 315, I assumed they had to be talking about something other than a deadlift.

I don’t think babies weigh that much George
