Taping ribs so they won't come out of his spine? I think that's more exaggerated than anything else. But why such an extreme to get to lift weights point for no money back around 2002 (assuming 20 yrs ago when Chuck was on top)

Late 90s, early 2000’s powerlifting was akin to Group B rally racing. Spud, Chuck, Dave, everyone from that period would be considered insane today.

I remember Dave Hoff mentioning about Chuck taking part in these "iron man" fights. The footage of the fights are actually stored on VHS tapes located at Westside Barbell, he was described to be extremely dominant in the cage to the point where some of his opponents refused to fight him. It would be a sight to see some of the footage.

I loved this, my legs hurt from watching. But seeing how you guys get together and torture each other just shows us all what real friendship is about. I love your videos, and a big part of that is having great people that tell great stories and share their experiences.

Thank you Juji for saying plaid and not flannel! Flannel is a fabric density and not a pattern, and you seem to have learned that at one point. Even though Joey has more of a double check pattern, close to a tartan pattern, still check patter is plaid so hurray for Juji having some fashion wisdom! I mean he always dresses pretty smooth so maybe that's what turned Sam's head in the beginning ?

LOved this! Chuck was one of the biggest motivational figures in the lifting world at one time or another. The man was intensity personified. I love watching some of his old Westside videos and his lifting videos. There aren't many of them out there, but when you see them it's like finding lifting gold!

Do more of these type videos, they are a joy to watch

Belated Merry Christmas and a Happy, Healthy and Powerful New Year!!! Thanks!!!!!!!

Chucks legend just grows with every passing year. More so after the westside doc

I love these types of videos. You and Joey should go head to head more often.

You guys need to get somebody to animate the story of this workout to Daves voice as he told it in there.

Super positive energy throughout this whole video, I loved this one

love that you shine some light on this man ! I used to admire him and try to be like him

The content with Dave is amazing!

the world needs people like you Sir JUJIMUFU! to remind us what greatness is even if the man dont like talkin!

See what was said at the beginning by one of the gentlemen, I could is true....I used to have a phobia with bigger dudes in person (not watching them on TV in sports). It's why for years I wouldn't go to the gym. I was always picked on as a kid and was molested at 13 by one schoolmate because I was "skinny & weak" But these guys usually are good dudes especially Juji and its changed my perception about bodybuilders

Something I learned early in my twenties that was HUGE in my life: DO NOT MISTAKE SHYNESS FOR CONTEMPT. Bodybuilding attracts shy introverts, and they get judged as bullies which often makes them withdraw even more. They're usually the nicest guys ever.

Woahhhhh at 2:15 that country kitchen is the Callaway Gardens country store in Pine Mountain Ga. Literally 10 minutes from my house. Small world!

Never knew it was possible for people to squat for that many reps with that much weight. You got people doing Smolov stopping at 10 sets with 3 reps per set and they look as if they finished the workout, but these guys keep going. Way to make Squats an aerobic endurance exercise.

Just watched the video of you interviewing the Mind Pump guys for a few questions.. Was wondering if you'd ever do another video with them or a podcast or something! keep up the good work Juji!

probably something that's a size up if you're going to wear them throughout the day, they'll cut off circulation long term if they're fit for training.

Coach Joe is my form/technique idol

Awesome that Joey was in a Brawny Man style uni. After he started doing The Rock challenges lately I started referring to him as "The Paper" because paper beats rock.

That effort deserved a subscription. Damn dude. Thanks for the motivation.

Although i dont like equiped powerlifting i love chuck

Great video thank you brother! ☺♥

I'm pretty spoiled to two distinct advantages to my travel setup (when you asked about veggies). I travel with an E Pro 20fbs (travel trailer). So I stock my fridge and pantry before we head out.

Happy holidays man!

GOAT Vogelpohl and his endless lat pull downs and fire beanie.. respect!

Two Monsters!! Killin it!

Gonna try this (although with lower weight for me still being a puny human :/ ) on my own. Just gonna keep the timer up at 1 min for the first "section" and at 30 secs for the rest. Looks really fun!

I remember seeing his cover on pl USA magazine. You could feel the intensity radiating through the image.

"That" normal day at Westside is legendary in the powerlifting world to this day.

These are the greatest videos on KZread.

AWESOME VIDEO!

I was lucky enough to train a few times at Westside in the mid-late 90's-Chuck was the strongest!!!

Motivation Station baby!

Hands down one of my most favorite vids from your channel 🦍🦍

I worked out at Westside about 22yrs ago when I got my bench up to 550 with 2ply shirt and squat up to 850.thought I was it weight 250 lbs.boy was I wrong there were guys smaller doing more.lue at Westside is the absolute master at getting past sticking points, with unorthdized power exercises.

That's quite a warm up

"well we've never teleported so we must have driven here." lol

"We never teleported so we must of driven here" has me dead.

maybe i am doing squats the wrong way or i'm old 60 years old , all i know is everytime i hit squats i hurt something , but when that hurt heals up i feel way better than before , the thing is with squats is we all think we are doing just legs but its really everything , i love it ...

That was the most brutal workout I have ever witnessed hands down!! Poor Juji man I was really feeling sorry for him when he had to do the front weighted torture walk😢 Juji you're a soldier for all things strength , health , & fitness!!

I’ll be grabbing the greens baby

I'm 30 now. I've wanted to get back into lifting again. I wanna meet you JuJi here in NC. I'm right outside Charlotte. We need to link and you need to help me whip my ass back into gear!

Juji does these new greens taste as good as the old ones you use to sell?

What kind of camera and lens are you using? The footage quality looks great.

Looking forward to watching this. Also, have you considered doing a Collab with Kneesovertoesguy?

This was absolutely insane! I can't tell if it came down to who's lungs were more conditioned or who's legs were less jelly

insane workout.
