That picture just doesn't look real. We know him and he's never looked that lean. He's got a set of biceps on him though! And he's a blast to be around.

I haven't heard about Kirk in years.

He is a freak of nature in terms of strength and size. I would love to see his program as well.

We see him every year at the National events. I shot him an email asking about his training. I'll try to follow up in this thread when he gets back to me.

And a funny story to share. Kirk, like many other great lifters, is a little shorter stature than most of us. And since I'm 6', these guys just don't look as big when you see them in person. I always joke around that I'm not impressed with the shorter lifters. In all actuality, I am very impressed at the numbers these guys can put up. Anyway, I was standing backstage at Women's Nationals 2001 trying to watch a lift happening on the platform. Kirk was kneeling below me wrapping his lifter's knees. I was able to get a feel for his strength firsthand. He proceeded to lift his arm just to nudge me out of the way. It was like slow motion, but the push was very powerful. It pretty much lifted me off the ground and moved me backwards.

I didn't want any further run ins with this guy so I introduced myself. He's hilarious!

Get this, he liked loose suits! And wraps! I've never heard of such a thing to move that amount of weight.

I've got some clips of him deadlifting and squatting, he pretty much full squats oly style! He's got huge quads!

I believe he trains old school style. I have an interview with him from an old mag, see if I can find it.

 

[Liftbig]

hes a strong dude.

 

[DBCooper]

Yeah I remember his training in PLUSA was sets of 5 mostly, that lean pic was after he squatted the grand and leaned up. It was in the PLUSA mag with a few others, it said he worked up to like 5 reps with around 800lbs. Great lifter.

 

[Imakarum_Mirabilis]

I was told once that he trained similarly to Coan.

 

[WarriorPL]

Hell yeah... another strong polish dude. Mariusz Pudjanowski being the other (world's strongest man 2002)

Myself and Dave will be the next two.
