I’d believe Lew’s boasts of feats of strength if he wasn’t such a tiny, skinny little pussy.

I hate to de-rail this thread any further, but “UUGGHHHH… Thankyouverymuch” is something I like to throw into my training every so often when receiving a liftoff, haha.

In the video he says he’s eating only 2 meals a day. I wonder how freakin’ huge those meals must be.

Did I remember correctly that you lift at your house?[/quote]
If you do do you find it harder to concentrate while training at yout house instead of at the gym? If so do you have tips or a routine to get into the zone when training there?

Yes. I have worked out at home for the past 6 or 7 years. I have a barbell, a couple dumbbells, a curl bar, Powertec multistation gym and about 1500 lbs of weights I believe.
Working out at home it is much easier to focus. No distractions of idiots trying to pickup women or hogging equipment or trying to look cool on their cellphones. Plus, I am not a very nice person when I am working out. I am not mean, but I am deadly serious and focused and if you get in my way and are goofing off I will tell you to use the equipment or move, period.[/quote]
This question is obliquely related to this post, but what are some mistakes you’ve made training-wise, diet-wise?
I had found that, for me, training at home (well, parents’ home) seldom worked for me, and that I needed to be surrounded by serious folks. The gym I’m at now provides that, but it took me a while to find it.
so safe to say
cliff notes:
there are kids in the inner city that are better than Michael Jordan
we’re gonna believe that Lewhitehurst could possibly one of the strongest pressers in the world…on the internet
and he played SEMI pro football which is apparently srs business
anything else I missed?

Training-wise, it would be getting impatient at times, but I think we have all suffered from that at one time or another. Both training at home and training with each other have their benefits. The big thing with training with others is that you have someone there to push you. The advantage to training at home is convenience and, for me, being able to better focus.arg

I’m interested in this as well. I know some things are going to work for people that don’t for others, but I think back to my training history and sometimes I have to honestly say WTF. It’s nice to hear about ‘oops’ experiences big guys had as well.
LW, another question, it sounds like you’re a big believer in… herm, “active cardio.” I know that sounds retarded, but I think it’s sounding like you’d prefer to do sled drags over steady-state. Any particular reason for this, or is it purely what you find to be more fun/challenging/what have you?

Less boring for one. And it’s a whole lot easier on my knees and shins. I like walking, too but I prefer to do it outside as opposed to on a treadmill.

“You see how pretty that was? I stopped in the middle and kissed it the rest of the way up”
LMAO! That was amazing. That guy seems like he would be awesome to hang out with
Lew, you’re the man. I played lacrosse in high school, GREAT sport.
BTW who is that dude benching 505? I like him, he seems like a cool guy
I don’t think some of the clowns realize how fucking huge Mr. MoBitchezz is.
Baltimore skyline for reference.

Morgan State beat W&L which was a monumental upset but they never actually won a championship that I can confirm. There is a great book called “Ten Bears” that tells their story. One of the author’s is Kyle Harrison’s dad, cool little fact.
At least a handful of years ago when I read this in one of the lax magazines I subscribed to the “all time” lacrosse team based on college careers had the Gait brothers and Jim Brown as the 1st string midfield.

OK. I read Ten Bears a while ago and I thought they had won a championship, but either way you look at it, it was monumental at the time. And Dr. Harrison is a pretty cool guy. I ran into him on Hopkins’ campus when Kyle was still playing. He was very humble and affable.
And the scary thing about Jim Brown is that those who saw him play said he was actually a better lacrosse player than football player.
GO HOOS

jim Brown was the man… There is a big discrepancy between the quality of athlete in college lacrosse vs college football. JB was DOMINATING the best of the best in college (and pro) football… I’m sure he whipped the floor with the lacrosse players of his time. (no diss on lacrosse at all)
Great story and interesting thread. Insane pressing numbers!
