Tamer Chain's immune to STRAINS!

Hail iron brothers,
Many of you might have known of Tamer Chain, former Olympic competitor and Panamerican Games' medalist in powerlifting. You might also have heard of his infamous one hand deadlift.
So today, I beheld (is it properly conjugated?) another infamous feat by such an iron legend:

After some whimpy dude complained that he couldn't perform pull-overs with a 35kg dumbell, Danilo (another gym worker who is really cool and huuuge) called Tamer and said: "Hey Tamer, help me out, take this dumbell while I help that old lady perform her 100th set of leg raises with no weights at all *looks tired since old lady insists on having him giver her full attention at such perilous exercise*. SO tamer goes over, grabs the dumbell, places it on the floor and -GASP- performs a one handed sideways SNATCH (dunno if this is the name, but it was in the Forgotten lifts section) and WHEW goes the dumbell into the air. Then, after landing the dumbell, Tamer looks and says: "Ahhh, this is too light man"
The wimp looks at himself in shame, feeling humiliated by the old fart who can swing dumbells as if they were made of polyester. Tamer performs his infamous smiles and leaves chuckling.
Danilo was absolutely short of breath and came to tell me this story, ending it with a frase to describe Tamer: "Some ppl seem to be born invulnerable to injury... he didn't even stretch Erik".

If you guys wish, I can keep you posted with more gym-legend action!
 
20 views... ppl read and refuse to post :( CS, Guiness, don't be shy to hit reply (wow, it rhymes).

:D
 
lol, I'm always up for stories about Morons at the Gym getting their egos smashed by old-school lifters.

How many of these world-class Oly/PL guys are at your gym? And, speaking of such guys, how're you liking the routine that one of them gave you?
 
How are you faring with the biceps problem? Sorry, but I lost the original thread.

I hope you are improved.
 
CS: There are 2 former world-class powerlifters in my gym: Andre Doria and Tamer Chain. The bad part is that both work during the mornings, which means I have to wake up and rush to the gym to catch up.

About the program: I attempted to start it on Monday, after a 2 week break from the gym. The squat resulted in me vomiting like a crazy horse sniffing glue. The deadlifts are going very well. I will restart (or attempt to) restart the program next week, then I shall keep a journal.

Blut: My biceps is recovering steadily. I switched the benchpress to a Hammer Strength Benchpress (UGH, I know), but at least that helps me exercise myself whithout compromising my tendon. The pain is fading away and I am putting ice on it 3x a day, for 20 minutes each time. Thank you for remembering me and wishing my improvemenet.

Guys I have good news though (total thread hijack):

I showed Andre some of the vids that you guys post and he was like: SHIT, this is Fucking PAUL ANDERSOn... SHIT where u get this.
This is fucking Kazmaier in 1983, this is ED COAN in 1985.

Then he asked me: where did you get these?
Me: Elite Fitness, the internet forum.

This made him realise the wonderful thing that the internet is (caveman anyone?). So now Andre and I are going to upload all his vids, his certificates, his Record Proofs etc and we are gonna start an online journal of some sort.
So as I need to know if u guys:
1- Know of any free web-hosting.
2- Are interested in this project.

Btw, tomorrow I am visiting his gym. Supposed to be underground shit.
