I was once at a very swanky hotel gym in Piccadilly and pleased to see they had a squat rack, bar & plates. The only others in the gym were a PT and a couple of guys he was training, seeing me squatting 120Kg the PT came over and offered to spot me and offered some advice about not squatting so deep! Then with 140 on the bar he came over to spot me again, then when I had 160 on the bar I asked if he would come and watch my back again to which he replied "sorry, I'm not insured to cover that sort of weight" !!!!!

I'm still amazed that he expressed it in such a way, it was complimentary!

The one i get a lot is, "I wouldnt have thought you could lift what you do". Another one is when people ask what my deadlift is and i reply and they say "thats really good".

I've even had this at a wedding, except the guy took it that bit further and decided he'd throw a punch at me stopping it a couple of inches infront of my face as if it proved his point.


Did you wreck him?

Should've wrecked him.

"Creatine should be banned."
"Lifting reduces mobility."
"Lifting slows you down."
"Good lifters don't make good grapplers."

I had someone weight train for a few weeks and then stop, he told me that he was getting too big and wanted to stay small so he could be fast.

Half teh kids at work assume I must be good at fighting cos im hench (90kg Confused Confused Confused ) and once had a guy persistently hassle me for an arm wrestle in a club in end I gave up and let him push my arm down the woman he was trying to impress realised he was a tit and walked off.

I don't want to get too big, because when I stop, it will all turn to fat.

I get this all the time. It's as if people don't think I can understand size otherwise.
I got told about this one lad who was much bigger than me (I'm 6'5"and 145kg) when I saw him he was 5'8" at a push and maybe 75kg.


Obviously you need it explaining again because it doesn't sound like you've accepted his superior size yet.


As an aside, i've managed to get really fat... can anyone share the process of transmuting muscle to fat, so i can reverse engineer a formula?

The most common question I get asked is "how much can you lift?". Very non-specific question!

Last year I was receiving treatment for some shoulder pain, I was explaining to the Sports Physio that it comes on during the low bar squat, to which she asked "is that where you lift the bar up off the floor."

then later on when I was explaining my max lifts she stated "I'll never understand you men and your extreme sports". yeah because a 160(at the time) deadlift is extreme!
