Strong as an ox...

Have you ever known someone who was just brute strength strong? When I was attending college in Phoenix in 1980, there was this guy named Cisco, had a neck thick as a bulls and was HUGE. He had this lowrider with about 10 batteries in the trunk. One day when I was out cruising around with him, he ended up having a flat. I offered to jack up the car, and he just laughed at me and said he didn't have a jack.

He popped out a lug wrench and the spare. Popped off the lug nutz and then told me to replace the tire. Then he lifted up the ass end enough for me. to replace the tire. The guy had never been in a gym working out from what he'd said.
 
i knew a kid like that. he was this overweight 250 pound kid, and semi-retarded... never touched a weight in his life, so i asked him to do some curls to see how strong he was. he grabbed the 80's and started to curl them without flinching... i was like "WTF?!"
 
my dad is 6'4" 250lbs pretty lean for 51yrs old. played pro rugby when he was younger. 20" calves and arms. he said he never lifted weights in his life (i believe him).

why in the hell did i have to get my mom's genetics :( *runs away and cries*
 
one spring i had my roof re-shingled ,this skinny guy about 130lbs loaded up 4 squares of shingles on his should went up the ladder like it was nothing,after everyone went home for the day i tried it wobbling all over the place i managed to take only 2 steps up the ladder before i knew i wouldn't make it!

We had a bouncer at work, 23 year old kid, 6'3", over 300 lb. endo-meso of Danish ancestry, looked like Baby Huey. He played some high school football, but I don't think he had any serious lifting history. When we had to move the pool tables, he'd be on one side, and three normal guys would be on the other. He carried full beer kegs over his shoulder like they were nothing, and also carried out 50 gallon trash cans full of empty beer bottles over his shoulder, and made it look easy.

I tried to get him to take up weight training, but he seemed to think that he was already strong enough.
 
70 year old Custodial Engineer in foundry my dad converted part of into his office when I was a kid. Not huge, not tall, thick like a fireplug, and harder than pig iron, glasses thicker than Boston aquarium glass.

The counter weights on the back of old forklifts were just concrete plugs with handles on them made of rebar that were set into them as the concrete cured. About 350lbs each. I once saw him take two of them off them off the back end of a lift and then farmer walk the fuckers to the side of the loading dock. Freak? Why yes, totally.

Ok, maybe he was 60, I was in my mid teens and anyone with full on grey hair looked at least OLD to me then.

He was strong beyond belief... smelling that is... he always wore these green blue work clothes: pants pulled up way the hell higher than his navel and sleaves perfectly rolled up to above his forearm. Deodorant? No. never.

I was learning welding and fucking around with high pressure oxy-acet for making glass sculptures and whenever the gas would run low on the cart he would replace the tank (taller than I was) BY HAND. Unreal.
 
Woah! Still impressive.
Yrs ago at my store there was this black guy about 250 pounds did alot of pulpwooding (Logging) as we called it.
Brought a 19" tv in for servicing, it had a handle on the top and weighed at least 150 Lbs,RCA warrenty states if it has a handle its classified as a portable ,thus a home service call we would not get reimbursted for it. He brought it in ,It got repaired i was sitting at the service bench ,as he reached to grab it i said"wait let me help you" as the set was to the left of me,his reply "nah! i got it" reached over my head grabbed the set with his arm straight out and lifted that sucker over me and walked out the door. He was big ,his arms were a good 21 inches and he got that way logging.

that makes me wonder,

when i work in the summer time I do alot of hard labor and it doesn't seem like it makes me bigger at all....

maybe because I was eating like shit at the time...............
 
I work in the construction bussiness, and I'm constantly amazed by some people's strength. Old drywall guys are some tough mofos. This one old bird in particular (he's fat, smokes packs of newports a day, eats like shit) can move board like I have never seen. Dude regularly picks up 2 12 foot 150 pound boards and hauls them...quite a difficult task considering how akward the boards are...I've also seen the same guy deadlift 400 pound plus material...
 
When in the service, there was this civilian worker who was 100% American Indian. I forget what tribe. He was about 6'2" with a neck larger than his head and massive. Nicest personality I'd ever met. We called him "little John". I watched him pick up 150lb pylons under each arm and carry them to a bench like they were 20lb bags of ice.
 
i have a friend who is huge.....about 6' 4, 280lbs or so......basically doesn't have a neck, amazingly strong.....never touched a weight in his life.

i couldn't imagine what this guy would be capable of as a powerlifter.
 
goddamn. i pour concrete 40 hours a week in the summer, tossing 80 pound panels around all day. wish that'd make me strong like these other fucks (instead i just drop pounds like mad!!!). i'm definitely always an extremely vascular little fuck by august though...
 
I got a friend who's about 6' 270. Worked out for a few years in High School, but was a twig. After he graduated he got huge with no working out. I watched him get on the bench drunk one night and put up all the weight that was there(365) like nothing. Bastard :mad: some guys have all the luck.
 
Hey Tuc, what's that in your avatar? I can't tell if it looks real good, or if it looks like a shit sandwich.
