I think that's very impressive. Here's a guy who is pushing his body to the utmost limit, and even though he isn't "big," his lifts and his physique let you know that he works extremely hard.

Very motivational. Just don't copy his pull up form.

i dont think his goal is to be big, just powerful. i tihnk it's clear that he wants to stay small, if he is at 158 lifting 300-400

see thats what some of us are after. Very nice stuff. i take it he can dunk a basketball, lucky guy..

 

[kickureface]

probably could, but he worked for everything he has. look at his other vids, he has a bunch. not lucky, hard work.

 

[int3l]

by lucky i meant good job, i know he's worked hard for it.

Looks like he may of been trained by our very own Warboss Alex.

 

[Crazy Asian]

how does training differ between wanting a "big" body compared to a small but powerful body like his?

 

[Kerpal]

That's an interest of mine and from what I've learned, the key is simply to eat less. You can't grow if you don't eat enough, but you can still get stronger. Also from what I've read guys who are interested in strength without gaining size would work with lower rep ranges and less volume.

I'm really into that sort of thing because I want to stay at a certain weight, and also being stronger than I look appeals to me for some reason. The power/weight ratio of athletes who have weight classes like Powerlifters and Olympic lifters is just amazing. I learned a lot from Ross Enamait's books. That guy is awesome, I don't think he weighs more than 160 lbs but he does some crazy ****, like standing ab wheel rollouts with an 80 lb weight vest, 1 arm pull ups, etc.

I never go over 6 reps on an exercise, usually stay between 3-5 reps, and I don't try to eat a lot like most of the guys on here, I just eat whenever I get hungry but I still follow a lot of the same principles (high protein, lots of good fats, carbs around workouts only, carb cut off at night, etc.)
