There are a few dudes thicker, and much stronger than RC.

Watching these videos of Ronnie, some people are probably wondering "why do you need strength" ?

So... how many gym ettiquette rules go out the window when you're the top pro bb...

I don't think his voice is that high when he's talking normally, but for some reason he's squealing for attention (either that or the guy behind him, his apparent personal spotter, is named light weight, and he's nearly deaf, so ronnie has to make sure he's paying attention before he starts his lifts).

Oh yeah, and he's damn sure a monster body builder...

Cuz no one is going to tell either of them that when they talk, they sound like a girl.

Coleman is not as strong as the WSM. They incorporate indurance and ODD lifts into the competitions. Not to mention Mariusz Pudzianowski(current WSM) is 6'2" and 275-280Lbs. Here is his site www.pudzian.pl

I've gotta dispute this claim. I'm looking through Mariusz's website at his training log, and it's nowhere near what Ronnie does. Five weeks out from last year's Olympia, Ronnie was squatting 800 + after multiple working sets.

well, first of all, if i were the #1 pro BB in the world, i wouldnt give a fuck about anyone else in teh gym either. dont get me wrong, i wouldnt be a dickhead, i'd keep to myself and shit, but if i wanted to yell "LIGHTWEIGHT", i sure wouldnt hesistate. I think its obvious he yells alot of that shit for the excitement of the camera, ya know? otherwise who the hell would wanna watch him lift weights in silence, showing no emotion/enthusiasm etc. when he could/and did make it real memorable. how do you think Pumping Iron got so successful? no one would gave 2 shits about it if alls Arnold and Franco did was go around training.....color/humor/etc. enhances the entertainment value immensely......


secondly, the part about his spotter named "LIGHTWEIGHT" was hilarious.

thirdly, he's THE monster bodybuilder....



You're a funny guy, Sully, I like you. Dat's why I'm going to kill you lahst.

If Ronnie trained for it, i believe he could be one of the, if not THE strongest man in the world and break all the powerlifting records.


i'd say he's got more endurance than powerlifters anyhow, cuz they lift for POWER (heavy weight, low reps.....NO endurance), hence powerlifters. Meanwhile Ronnie has plenty of endurance.
you want endurance? Ronnie can bench 250 75x.

i'm sure he can do more than 600............a guy at my home gym can do 600, and he's not NEARLY Ronnie's size.

looked to me like he was calling the weight he was pushing "light weight"... not his spotter. just psyching himself up for the lifts.

Thicker? WHO???????????

Much stronger?????? no way bro, not in the world of BB. Ronnie is king.

Gunther and Ruhl may weight more, but doesnt mean they're more muscular. Ronnie is a SHREDDED 285 @ Olympia '03

That is pretty impressive. I'd always seen the posters of guys holding those huge weights, but its so different seeing them handled.

So who's thicker than him in those videos, which one do I download?

Also, there are some really ridiculous ones there. I mean, take

Ove Lehto @ 127kg & Jonas Pensar @ 120kg - 555kg/1223.5lb Two-Man Deadlift

I thought it was Ove Lehto (some guy I guess) lifting two men on top of him or something, but it's two guys, Ove and Jonas, lifting 555kgs. It's a lot, but it seems kinda dumb.
