There’s this trend lately with guys like CT gaining popularity on youtube, bigass black dudes who never really made it big but have respectable physiques and strength levels, and they all market themselves as being “hard” and from the streets. To me it seems like all these guys are trying really hard to put on an act. Its getting tiring an overdone in my opinion.

LOL at “of course you cant overtrain, all you fucking do is CURL!”[/quote]

CT did make it big though, he was a world champion bench presser and set the record for the strict curl. [/quote]

Not in terms of renown or fame.

Why were there so many people on T-Nation who never heard of him? [/quote]

Before the explosion of social media in the past few years, who did you hear of?[/quote]

More bodybuilders than i could think to name right now?

I didnt say he didnt accomplish anything. But i believe the reason anyone is hearing about him now that wasnt an avid follower of powerlifting is due to his “schtick.” And lately ive seen several other “youtube sensations” that have followed in his footsteps…Or maybe they came before, im not sure. But this is a recent fad.

That naked motherfucker needs to shut the fuck up.

How much does he bench press? Squat? Dead? Biceps curl, lol?

Fuck him. Once he’s accomplished all what has CT done, then he might feel right to open his trap and challenge him.
Fucking naked son of a bitch. I don’t want to see his ugly mug and ugly traps, motherfucker. I want to see him bench big and then, maybe I’ll respect him. Until then, he’s only big mouth and big traps. Motherfucker!

As for you CT… mmm… come over here, hunny. Let’s mix our superstrong genes and make some super awesome super strong babies… mmm…

Err… but that naked son of a bitch ain’t talking about other black guys. He’s talking about motherfucking CT FLETCHER!

Lol.

CT IS from the streets. He was a powerlifter, and a strong one at that. For that asshole to come up and say that all CT does is curling is fucking hilarious. He obviously has not researched well who the fuck is my man, CT, the future father of my future children.

Motherfucker. Fuck him and his traps.

Lol this was pretty funny back when it transpired

I see what you’re sayin. There’s really no way to say how much of it is an act with any of these guys though. I mean it’s feasible that a larger than average number of guys like that legitimately did come from very rough backgrounds, and they used weights as an outlet and possibly even an escape from a much worse life. I’d give them the benefit of the doubt and say it’s not really an act.[/quote]
Doesn’t really matter if any of it is an act. What matters is the legitimacy of character. It would be difficult for someone with illegitimate character to have the conviction to inspire the numbers that CT has. That’s all that really matters. The impact on others.

What are your thoughts on CT? The video posted by TheRage191? How about CT’s response video?[/quote]
One is a guy who, literally, has been busting his ass in the gym for longer than most of us posting in this thread have been alive. He’s set powerlifting records and won at least one bodybuilding contest. He seems to have recently found a way to use the Internet to get his message to more people.

The other is a guy who started a Youtube channel last year, yells about stuff while sitting in his bedroom, posts the very occasional lift or meal recipe, has a decent physique for a 26-year old kid, and got goofed on by Daniel Tosh.

He’s a reminder to get out of my head and just fucking lift the bar. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t mentally replay a clip of any one of his motivational rants right before I deadlift.

But he did refer to CT as more-or-less being a sort of “fad.” And i agree that these “from the streets” youtube bodybuilders/powerlifters (who ALWAYS claim to be natural and make very liberal use of the word fuck) seem to be a trending fad.

Other than that i think this Rage guy is a clown.

CT seems pretty cool to me when he’s being genuine, but most of the time i feel like he’s putting on an act. Some people might like that, cool. I cant take it seriously. I prefer to glean genuinely useful and applicable information from my bodybuilding videos, rather than just pumping myself up by seeing how badass some guy is.

The Tosh thing made me lol.

I love that CT Fletcher video where he’s like “I invite pain into my house! I make dinner for the motherfucker!”

the other guy’s just some tool with a youtube channel. There’s no shortage of those.

32

Some of CT fletcher’s stuff is awesome on ipod, I down load it with the background music from his clips, play it on heavy days, him shouting “lift the damm weight” or " you got another rep left little girl" in the end he’s preaching about putting consistant effort and hard work in on the basic exercises, and if you do this for a long enough period of time you’ll reach your goals, sounds like pretty solid advice, he just puts his own spin on it, and it’s a little over the top, lol,

Have you only been watching his ‘‘preaching’’ videos? Do you think he’s also ‘‘acting’’ while he leg presses, squats or benches all that fucking amount of weights at his old age?

There are videos that I never fail to check out whenever I need some extra motivation to push some weight. I like CT FLetcher and Branch Warren’s. Act or no act, the way those two train or ‘‘preach’’, shits on all over the rest. I see them training hard and I want to do the same. I want to fucking be like them. Big and fucking strong.

CT’s preaching is comical of course. It might be an act, so what? That motherfucker knows what the fuck he’s talking about and, he’s got an unorthodox way to convey his message to others. Some won’t like it, others will love it and find it inspirational. What matters the most is how aggressively the person trains and how dedicated to his training he is. And CT does exaclty that.

Unlike some naked bitch in her room, called rage, with bottles of oil in the background, used for curling her fucking cock. Maybe that’s how she’s built those fucking traps. And not by going to the gym and pushing some real motherfucking massive amount of weight. Fucking clown ass bitch.

Shit, that’s exaclty what I do.

I get to that last rep, squat or deadlift… I’m fucking drained… my mind is telling me nooo, but my body, my bawwwwdy is telling me yeessssssss. I’m thinking, ‘‘damn, I won’t be able to lift that shit, man.’’

Right there and then, I hear that motherfucker CT shouting in my fucking ears that I’m fucking pussy. And that alone makes me so angry and pumped with adrenaline. So fucking angry.

I’m not a fucking pussy, motherfucker! I AM NOT A FUCKING PUSSY!!!

36

So… how many posts do you think this Rage guy has on T-Nation?

OP asked what we think. Im telling you what i think. Im not saying im right or anyone else is wrong.

Again, i never said anything negative about CT’s physique, lifts or accolades, so im not sure why this is being brought up. I also never praised “Rage,” so im not sure why you made the attempt to disparage him in response to my post. Maybe you just enjoy insulting him, which is fine by me.

And are you calling me a fucking clown ass bitch? Or the dude in the other video? Just curious…

Ha. Looks like was actually on BB.com, as “doitbig191”. 17,000 posts in 4 years before he got banned. Somehow, if he was lurking around here, I think he would’ve been outed by now.
