    I really appreciate this channel and these two amazing men specifically. I'm 27 years old, and I actually hated lifting heavy weight because I was naturally a small guy, and knew I wasn't strong at all. I'm 5'4, and had never gotten over the weight of 145lbs until very recently. I couldn't even bench 185, and struggled with my own body weight on the bench. I had tried everything!! Protein shakes, casein, muscle pills, creatine, etc. and absolutely nothing worked for me. My metabolism was just too high and fast. I loved doing calisthenics and cardio though, to keep my run time really low for I'm a U.S. Army soldier.
    November 1, 2018, I had surgery on my right knee (knee replacement) due to a rather near death experience that shredded every ligament in my right knee. I was bed ridden for 4 months straight, because I literally couldn't walk for that long. You can only imagine how much pain I was in, both mentally and physically, and how depressed I was, from waking up every day, running for miles at a time, swimming countless laps, playing basketball, flag football, combatives for the Army, you name it, to absolutely nothing!!! I was at the lowest I had ever been. I was already a tiny man, and now immobile. My self esteem and dignity were fuckin destroyed. Scrolling thru RUclips, a video popped up from Julius Maddox lifting crazy weight, and it literally kicked started my mentality to stronger. I had my wife and best friend go to "Dicks Sporting" and buy the heaviest dumbbells they had. I started doing dumbbell presses in my bed everyday. I've always had a healthy diet, so I started getting bigger upper body wise. I was mind blown!! As soon as I was cleared from the bed, I wheellchair'ed my way to the gym with my buddy and started lifting real weight. Fast forward to today, I'm 174 lbs, bench pressing 325x1, and I've gained some strength back in my legs due to therapy, and just having the mindset of wanting to get healthy again. I really appreciate you guys for motivating me and giving me hope again!✊🏿✊🏿

I have gained weight and lost strength and stamina. I don’t want to be a fat lump of clay, (I was at one time strong, solid and the stamina was at a top level).

    Honestly I know it will be hard but I sincerely hope you have Julius over more often. I love the way he articulates himself, how he's so soft-spoken even with that voice, and so technical and methodical without being the least bit boring. Brains and brawn truly make the winner together, never alone.
    Not only that, but he seems like a nice guy, and there's obviously huge respect between both sides here. One of the best strongman vids I've seen recently.

    Julius is so chill! I really like him. Glad to see he turned his life around. Very proud!

    Had Julius started when he was young like most these guys did, he would probably hold the world record in Bench, Squat and Deadlift. I feel he has it in him to still do a super heavy deadlift if he starts training more for strongman comps.

    Seen this video before, but was just struck with a thought. It must've been awesome for Julius to have a workout partner who can hang with near the same weight and reps. Really for both of them finding another human being who can lift that much, for that many reps, amazing!

    Hey Eddie, I see you have a twin .. The strongest man that can bench press anything on the planet.! We always enjoy watching your videos , most of the time at the gym, so when you guys are training, we're trying to imitate by keeping up and having lots of fun ... Great tips/ fantastic video!

    Thank you for this, guys. I was stuck at 739lbs for years and since watching this, I hit 740lbs successfully.

  • @davidvarnes7708
    @davidvarnes7708 4 года назад +49

    It's that 0.6 lbs that makes the difference. I mean, ANYONE can do 739. But 739.6? Whooooo

    • @diego_solis
      @diego_solis 4 года назад +1

      Well is not that difference... It's 739.6 because of the weights that didn't had those extra .4 pounds

      Technical you never stopped using (opiates), you just retrained your brain to release the endorphin high you got from lady Heroin. Now weight does the same thing. It's sex for some and gambling for others. It's all LEARNT behaviour. . .
