Yeah, I think I read some study confiriming that, although I can’t recall the actual numbers at the moment -lol

I thought I was the only one.
I was eating breakfast at a diner one morning, after a bit of a rough night, and heard one old guy say ‘Hey Buddy’ and I spit my oatmeal all over the counter I was laughing so hard.
To be fair, I was still a little drunk.

Drinking is not cool
^^^ I think you’re being serious. I remember the other thread.
It’s very infectious that Ronnie Talk. If I watch one of his videos…I’ll say his stuff for 2 or 3 days. Not even in the gym.

Great vid.
…sometimes.
Who doesn’t! Thats the problem, I think. The posers, soy boys, and post-pubescent High School athletes throw those terms around wanting to be badasses. The gym fills with “Lightweight babys” “Ooh yeahs” and other terms that the greatest bodybuilder of all time used when he was unleashed in Metroflex. I mean more power to them as it is effective in phyche’ing yourself out but some trainers go to the gym to put on a show and impress the opposite sex and others. I’m sure y’all know the type. Nonentheless the use of RC’s power phrases are something that we all benefit from regardless of our purpose.

I think my favorite clip of ronnie is when he is about to do the 800 lb squat. The first time I watched that clip and he starts all his yelling, light weight, yeah buddy, woooooo etc etc I thought he was just trying to show off and make sure everyone would watch him lift that much weight.
Then the camera paned around the rest of the gym and there was no one else there…Just Ronnie, his 2 training partners and the camera man. That struck a chord for me.
i went bowling with my friends a few months ago and i just yelled out LIGHTWEIGHT!!! but more like Branch Warren than Ronnie
and then id get a strike.
but my friends didnt know who Ronnie Coleman was so it wasnt as funny to them.

I’m not sure how impressive or badass it looks to other people, honestly. I think it’s really goofy, which is why I like it. It’s not like the bitches come running whenever they hear ‘Yeah budday. WOOOOOOO!’

True, but I can tell due to my new gym enviornment, its a fucking crowd. I’m the smallest of the big men and these guys are out there to prove something to other trainers.
Exactly what I don’t know but its blatantly obvious. “Lightweight, come on.” says one then the other throws a couple “motherfucker go!” in and its all a cute little show with some guy trying to move the 100lbers. Merely my observation.

I always catch myself doing this in the gym. After watching so many of RC’s workout videos and wanting to emulate him I now subconsciously use his “phrases”. Every work set I always end up psyching myself up and say something like “Come on…light weight baby, light weight…just a peanut.” Lol.
It really does work. I don’t even do this purposefully, it’s just become ingrained and that’s how I get ready to move heavy shit.
Anyone else catch themselves busting out a “Light weight baby!” “Nothin but a peanut!” or maybe even my personal favorites “YO YO YO!!!” and “WOOOOOOO…WOOOOOOO!” Before he busted out his 800 lb squat? lol, gotta love him.

LOLOL

aint nothing but to do it
aint nothing but a peanut

i actually say it out loud before a lift… or at the bar before chugging a cold one.

I have a video a coworker took of me chanting and swaying back and forth like an autistic kid before a “go for broke” squat.
I was sitting, looking at the ground and half-whispering so the audio was bad…
…you could clearly make out the words “cheese” and “grits” in the video.
Toohuman.

That’s pretty much what I do too. I just stare at something and go through the lift in my head while rocking back and forth and usually shaking my arms, head or hands or something. I’m not big enough or strong enough to start yelling yet.
i find myself shaking the sweat off my head like he does except it looks like i have tourettes.
also after a hard set ill go “wooh, that was sthuper heavy!”
