I am rarely serious. Would have a hard time negging a Manmore (even one who just barely makes the cut) anyways.

But take that chit to the thread where the bet was made. We discussing how to become a masstiff Obeast in here.

I disagree about taking it to another thread. He is actively dodging the call out thread on the same page as this one, yet has posted in here.

But getting beastly is a priority.... I am torn.

Dave Tate has a great take on this:

There was a time at the Old Westside gym where I couldn't gain weight to save my fukking life.

There was this dude who trained there who could just put on weight like ****ing magic. He'd go from 198 to 308 and then to 275 and back down to 198. And he was never fat. It was amazing.
I finally asked him one day how he did it.

"You mean I never told you the secret to gaining weight? Come outside and I'll fill you in."

Now remember, we're at Westside Barbell. And this guy wants to go outside to talk so no one else can hear. Think about that for a minute. What the hell is he going to tell me? This must be some serious **** if we have to go outside, I thought.

So we get outside and he starts talking.

"For breakfast you need to eat four of those breakfast sandwiches from McDonalds. I don't care which ones you get, but make sure to get four. Order four hash browns, too. Now grab two packs of mayonnaise and put them on the hash browns and then slip them into the sandwiches. Squish that **** down and eat. That's your breakfast."

At this point I'm thinking this guy is nuts. But he's completely serious.

"For lunch you're gonna eat Chinese food. Now I don't want you eating that crappy stuff. You wanna get the stuff with MSG. None of that non-MSG bull****. I don't care what you eat but you have to sit down and eat for at least 45 minutes straight. You can't let go of the fork. Eat until your eyes swell up and become slits and you start to look like the woman behind the counter."

"For dinner you're gonna order an extra-large pizza with everything on it. Literally everything. If you don't like sardines, don't put 'em on, but anything else that you like you have to load it on there. After you pay the delivery guy, I want you to take the pie to your coffee table, open that ****er up, and grab a bottle of oil. It can be olive oil, canola oil, whatever. Anything but motor oil. And I want you to pour that **** over the pie until half of the bottle is gone. Just soak the **** out of it."

"Now before you lay into it, I want you to sit on your couch and just stare at that ****er. I want you to understand that that pizza right there is keeping you from your goals."

This guy is in a zen-like state when he's talking about this.

"Now you're on the clock," he continues. "After 20 minutes your brain is going to tell you you're full. Don't listen to that ****. You have to try and eat as much of the pizza as you can before that 20-minute mark. Double up pieces if you have to. I'm telling you now, you're going to get three or four pieces in and you're gonna want to quit. You ****ing can't quit. You have to sit on that couch until every piece is done.

And if you can't finish it, don't you ever come back to me and tell me you can't gain weight. 'Cause I'm gonna tell you that you don't give a **** about getting bigger and you don't care how much you lift!"

Did I do it? Hell yeah. Started the next day and did it for two months. Went from 260 pounds to 297 pounds. And I didn't get much fatter. One of the hardest things I've ever done in my life, though.

Ah the glory days of being hunched over the kitchen table, looking at the last plate of chicken and rice after eating several plates beforehand and being absolutely disgusted by food. But sitting there until I finished the rest of that damn food. Whatever it takes, right babe?

Look around, having a gut is a natural part of aging, so why would that even be a challenge? I have no issue with weight, just the 40" waist. In any event, I've been a high as 250 so I know them feels too.

Just getting a gut is as easy as just being skinny. Look how many emaciated seniors are walking around.

But putting on weight to be strong is a whole other thing. I wonder if Koklyaev worried about his waist size when he was squatting 682 lbs with no hands?

Don't have a real one as I've never entered a comp. Might have to get myself a singlet one day so I can do so (I think that is all the equipment you should need).

Would like to get my weak ass up to a decent level of strength before hitting a PL platform or strongman field, though I do miss competition since I was forced to stop competing seriously in grappling.

Oh, cool. Just didn't want to claim anything I didn't legitimately earn.

Gym total currently is 350 lbs bench, 515 for squat (1rm calculator says it should be 540, but I've only ever actually done 515), and 450 deadlift (always been weak AF on deadlift, might need to get a PL coach to see if I am doing it properly). I don't have any lifting equipment or a singlet nor do I have anybody to white/red light me, so I suppose these don't mean chit.
