Dave DuPre's in My Gym Right Now


He doesn’t look much different than any other older, very fit guy. Maybe 6’0 or so, 180 lbs. He seems to be teaching a younger guy a few things. It’s pretty cool just to watch how he carries himself around the gym, and his form is just perfect.

FYI, he was in Pumping Iron and is very much a name form the ‘Golden Age’ of bodybuilding. Wish I could pick his brain and listen to some war stories…

Form an online bio: "Dave has won more than 30 titles, including Mr. Western America, Mr. International and Mr. Americana, and he was America’s national Tall class bodybuilding champion in 1975. Dave has defeated such stars as Mike and Ray Mentzer, Dale Adrian and Steve Davis, and he once placed second to the great Sergio Oliva in international competition…

Impressive as his bodybuilding credentials are, Dave Dupre was also an outstanding Olympic weightlifter - he cleaned and military - pressed 300 pounds while competing in the 198-pound class. His powerlifting feats include a rock-bottom 550 squat, a 440 bench press and a 730-pound deadlift. He also excelled in odd lifts, like a 185 pound one-arm snatch and a 150 pound one-arm military press."

That’s some damn good weight to be throwin’ around…

That elephant is trying to mount him… and he’s smiling about it.

Haha, true, but it’s the only pic of him I could find

You should be asking him questions.

I took your shitty advice and asked how much he can bench. He just looked at me funny, chuckled, and walked away shaking his head. Asshole.
