"Dave I had think about this one. A few years back before I turned pro I did a lot of retarded sh*t at Metroflex. This guy that I had competed against and beat called me up and challenged me. I told him if wanted to beat me on stage he had to be able to beat me in the gym first.
So this guy shoiws up at Metroflex and its leg day. He said I'm ready. My partner said no your not muthafu*ker.
We started with extensions 2 warmups then a 50 rep set with the stack and the last set we started with the stack and went tofailure and droped the weight and kept going until we got 100 reps."
Next we did squats I ended up doing 495 for 19 reps. that guy couldn't even do one all the way down. We wouldn't let him quit until he got all of his reps in so we dropped the weight to 315 and made him finish. He fell down and pucked all over the squat rack. next was parking lot lunges. He could barley walk at this point and he sure as hell wasn't used to the heat. We (jay ands I) went up to 225lbs for two long sets of lunges. This guy dissappeared during lunges. We went on to do leg presses. Brian Dobson found this guy passed out on the bathroom floor with one leg proped up on he toliet. I just kept training and did hamstrings harder than ever. Seeing that guy passed out just motivated me more and more. I told myself no matter how bad I was hurting I would never quit a workout. We trained so hard that day my legs were sore for seven days. That poor bast*rd had to go to the hospital."
"I was in my early twenties and doing legs. Jay and I had just started lifting together and every day was a pissing match who could do more. We started with leg extensions. We did 3 two minute sets. do a rep and down for 2 seconds and hold each one at the top. Next we did squats. 1 light set then 315 for 50 reps. next set 315 for 50. then on to hack squats. I wanted to kill jay so I thought up some retarded sh*t. 1 plate each side 10 reps. then 2 plates 20 reps, 3 plates 30 reps, 4 plates 40 reps. I was about to hurl at this point but jay was still standing so I said fu*k it, 5 plates 50 reps. Jay got something like 39 or 40. I beat him by a couple reps. but hacks are my strongest movement. But the war wasn't over. When we tried to get up neither one of us could walk. Literally. I fu*king tried to stand up and fell to the floor. the leg press was right next to the hack squat so I just kinda crawled into it. What weight was on it i just left it and started pressing. i heard Jay pucking and thought I got this mutha. But he wouldn't quit. He did all of his leg presses. When all was done I threw my guts up all over the parking lot. We both did a couple of times and laid on the pavement until we could drive."
