"I'd walk back to the squat racks. Throw my Gym bag to the floor. Its 5:30 on Monday. If somebody was stupid enough to be on the racks. They would get a "5 minutes" is all i would say. And If i came back in there and their shit was still on the squat rack I would take whatever it is, pick it up, turn, toss it over the bench behind the squat rack and say don't ever come back in here on a monday again."

Wow what a ****
 
Lol. You can't diss Captain Kirk, he's Captain Kirk. That bluster and attitude he has made him one of the greatest PLers in history.

You are ignorant of powerlifting history obviously. Few in the sport would question Kirk or his methods. Kirk is Kirk. Say what you want but the man is one of the greatest powerlifters in history so I think staying out of his squat rack is the least you could do.

I wasn't questioning his powerlifting methods.
I'm saying he's an idiot and you don't need to know anything about the history of powerlifting to realise that.

TBH I don't think you could squat a 1000lbs raw unless you had that attitude and person. It's a mental feat as much as a physical feat.

So to be mentally strong you have to be a rude, arrogant egotistical prick
You really don't believe that do you Fluff?

I believe it, people who are arrogant and not quite "all there" tend to be very confident I wish I was like that I overthink a lot.

As Coan said, he was part mad and part insane. Kirk was a fucking psycho nutter but it also made him one of the greatest powerlifters ever. If all you're focusing on is a sound-byte from a doco then you're really missing the point.
 
Yeah tbh you gotta have a little wrong with you to get under a heavy weight. Not saying its a bad thing at all but its something i masochistically enjoy and that probably olds true to a lot of other people lol. Most people cap in strength because they start pussying out

Don't have to, but it certainly helps to have an alpha personality, dogged single mindedness and a healthy dose of madness.
 
Need help untwisting those panties darkoz? You cant expect the worlds greatest squatter to be all sunshine and rainbows.
