Brian and a few others came to my then gym a few years ago to shoot a TV promo for a BB/powerlifting/strongman meet - similar to the Arnold.
I’m not the biggest guy but man, I felt like a 3 year old. I’ve also run into Kai, Phil and Evan C plus a few wrestlers in my time there and whilst obviously impressive I never had that “I feel like a tiny little boy” feeling.
Then they started repping out 100kg power snatches as warm ups and I said fuck this and went home.

Sorry for the thread necro, but thought you’d appreciate this.
Here is me standing next to Nick Best and Rob Oberst. In this photo, I am a svelte 200lbs at 5’9.
Fun story; while at that contest, my wife was unknowingly standing next to Rob. When he turned to move, she panicked, because up until that point she thought she was standing next to a wall, haha.

The first though I had when I saw that photo was “Geez, I should start lifting some weights”
