That's a good thing How much weight have you gained since 2015 2015? Yeah You guys have a general idea of my Weight High school basketball Probably a very similar height to that I am now 5'8", 5'9"? I'd say I was pretty healthy I was obviously 14, 15 Pretty healthy $1.70 Sophomore year of high school My off season got a little lazier We're talking You know my age is 15, 16 2005 I was probably 2'8", 2'90 Still good, still hanging on the rim Still fast, just got a little lazy That off season had a good talk with my coach Played four years varsity basketball So I had the same coach every year Built a really good relationship He told me a lot about everything From coaching to basketball to life I'm going to load this stupid thing Go ahead and walk with me And so I probably I put in the most work ever That off season We're talking We're talking gym for an hour Food Back to the gym for a basketball for an hour Then I finish it with like 15 to half an hour Either treadmill sprints Or stair mill every single day And then about twice a week I had a strength coach at the time We go to Sacramento State track And we do running drills and stairs Whatever So then 16, 17 junior year high school Probably my fastest Probably the most athletic build I've ever been That's probably about a buck 75 Some of those pictures if you go to my Instagram Flash back on my crossing a guy Shoulders are popping and 3D delts That's when I was 175 I'll send it to Connor Flash you right here Senior year high school Probably back up to about a buck 80 Junior college Best friend passed away Couple months after I graduated high school So going into junior college basketball I can make as many excuses as I want Fact is I got fat Wasn't the best time of my life You know It was a little rough Choosing schools, choosing sports Going into the new world And then my best friend passed away So I got up to probably 205 And it wasn't a good 205 Ended up quitting school Quitting basketball Got up to a really Probably the ugliest 225 I've ever been in my life I was lifting weights but hardly I wasn't playing basketball Just going to school Doing nothing That's when the fitness journey began That's when powerlifting was found Started doing all the research Point is I got back down to about a buck 90 I got 190 for a couple of years As I was training people And as I first joined Super Training Gym 2012 or 11 Throughout Super Training I kind of went up and down 2015 or 16 I walked around at a good 195, that was the leanest I've been recently Got up to 230 Chased some goals down I benched 405 weighing About 225 Pulled that 705 weighing About 220, 224 And that was about a year ago So 2016 And then now I'm probably 210 every morning 200, keeping as much muscle mass as I can While still Still getting to the leanest shape I've ever been I think I'm holding the most muscle I've ever had Besides the back injury, I think I'm the strongest I've ever had Or ever been So I get down to 200 I think then you can call me thick Thick nasty boy So I've received this question not that many times But I'd say two times and it's all been very recently And then with even more recent You've made a post about it Talk to us about the Bulldog grip on the bench I don't know much about it Right, right, right There's a guy in here IG handle the Barbell resistance Yeah, he asked me about steroids, I think he was trolling And He talks a lot about it He does it, and then he has a lot of his clients do it And he's had some of the other guys do it in here It was popularized by Mike Toucheher Oh, okay, okay And it's kind of like this No, that's not it, it's more of like a fingertip thing So you place the Barbell In your hand Deep in the palm of your hand And then rather than grabbing the Barbell With the full grip You just kind of put your fingers on it And you press like that And it's supposed to keep your wrists straighter And then the pressure is on the heel of your palm More than if you were to just grab The whole Barbell So somewhere between a suicide grip and a real grip Yes, it prevents you And I've done it a few times now When you push your fingers into the Bar You can't get it rolling back in your hand Makes sense I've done a video on gripping And I suggested people set up with the full grip And I placed the Bar in my hand Like I'm about to false grip And then I wrap And then the same idea is As much as you can get that Bar sitting right here Then your wrist is less likely to get cocked back If the Bar is in here, which is often for many people From here up, then you're going to get cocked back And things feel weird A couple times I have used it I feel like when I'm pushing I am pushing with this bone It feels good I do that well with the Dumbbell Because I care less But if you get it sitting on these bones It feels strong The only thing is with I've never used really heavy weight with it So it just seems kind of sketch But it does feel good I don't know if Mike Scherer has any videos on it Videos or articles He doesn't People see my sumo deadlift And call it a hybrid lift Or a semi-sumo That's people seeing something Not knowing what it is and making up a name And so I thought maybe Bulldogs like that Maybe Toshir just benches that way And then people named it Or maybe for all we know Toshir has numbness in his fingers You know what I mean? I pull Sumo the way I do Because I can't get my knees out any wider And people call it Ed Cohn Because he's so long Or whatever the hell these people want to name A cliche thing Where fact is it's just their way of doing it And I'm second guessing myself now Pretty sure it was Mike Scherer who made it I think that's where you got it from Don't quote us Later you bitches
