Warlord was a beast!!! 640 max bench is definitely believable.
100%. His chest, shoulders, triceps were enormous. All those guys back then were strong as hell. Animal, Warlord, Barbarian, Smash, Hercules, Hogan, Anvil were all very powerful people.
@@deebo1103 did you ever see the workout video with the barbarian and Lee Haney? Bobby Heenan is hilarious. Just type barbarian and Lee Haney working out on YT search and it pops up.
@@deebo1103Mickey (Rocky's manager) when THUNDERLIPS was making his way to the ring: "i've seen rasslers who wuz bigger than dinosaurs.."
In another vid I thought he said 640 was with a shirt and around 590 raw.
I love these interviews. The Warlord was one of the scariest looking guys out there and hearing him talk about the business is phenomenal. He was a great character, but seems like an even better guy.
Warlord is a Totally Chill Dude...
I'm 65 and Wish I would have Appreciated Him more while He Wrestled...
I was Naive and Sided w. the Baby Faces...
Funny thing is the Heels are often the Best People...
TY and God Bless
Haha, so true! The faces can be such divas when you think about it.
Everybody recognizes how huge the Warlord's upper body was but the man had enormous legs. Fricken huge legs. I don't think alot of people realize that because of the kneepads and the big boots. Absolute tree trunks.
Warlord got me sayin “AND THAT STUFF” With every other word I say now. 😂
@@Grapevined_BostonCrab CRINNNNNNEEEEE 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😭😭😭😭
if he was from florida that would be shortened to "and shit"
You beat me to it. I love his interviews but it is maddening how often he says that.
It needs to become a drinking game.
Thats funny. I bet whats gonna happen is (i JUST started this video) hes not gonna say it in this video (much).
I had a friend that always said “and junk like that”. And i got myself saying it.
This guy gives such great interviews. It's clear what he's saying, he's patient and not talking over the host, wealth of knowledge, and seems like a generally nice guy. He loved the business and has so many great things to say about his fellow wrestlers. Even when he could have dissed WWE for their ico-pro formula, he simply states the technology was new and they were trying to make money like everyone else rather than burying them or making fun. Very professional. I think a 2nd interview would be great in the future.
"I ate everything." -Warlord
"Your nose looks delicious." -Haku
The fact that these guys could maintain their physiques with that insane work schedule is amazing. No wonder they get so pissed when everyone calls their work fake and phony. These guys have my upmost respect.
LOL "Warlord" "worked for 10 minutes a day on "Pro" Wrestling with Zero actual real wrestling skills. Easy payday. Try working underneath cars and trucks for 10 hours a day fixing and welding 5-6 days straight. "Insane work schedule" LOL. Wake up. Get Real. LOL
@@TheRealClintEkertpoor bitter thing.
Well, Clint, working underneath cars and trucks or welding is a hard job. But try being away from home about 300 days a year. Now, look like the Warlord while doing it. If it was such an easy payday, I would imagine you would've gone and done just that.
No hate big dawg but word is “utmost” only reason I know is because I used to use upmost also
@@gstcomputing65 Roger that.
I squatted 405 but I did a lot of reps and didn’t go heavy. Lol love this man.
640 bench - I seen him once in a gym about 1991 by chance I was visiting a friend who was working out
I seen Warlord bend the heavy weights way over 500 lbs
I like the comments here about getting the big guys together to talk strength and lifting.
A round table would be so cool !!!
I saw an article and someone did the math. Phelps’ calorie intake wasn’t even to cover what he was burning via motion, it was also because he’d be so cold for so long.
I wish this conversation would happen with all the big dudes back in the day
Back then i was carob power..ergh!!!!
Warlord, Herc and Roma all on the same SS team was a wall of muscle.
Please keep the "Warlord stuff coming. One of my favorite all-time. I honestly feel he could have become legendary if they would have gave him a push!!! Great athlete!!
I love these interviews. Thankyou James. And a HUGE thankyou to the Warlord.
Prime Warlord was an absolute monster.
Warlord seems like a really cool , down to earth guy. Doesn't seem to talk bad about ppl. He seems to want to look for the good in people
Warlord is a solid shoot. Honest coherent and saw the business at the most interesting times
Warlord and Barbarian were 2 of the most underrated wrestlers of all time, (IMO,) both as POP and as solo wrestlers.
I miss watching wrestling from them days. Huge massive meatheads duking it out. Watch from my 90s childhood up to high school in the mid 00s. Now in my mid 30s I wish I could gain some weight without the hatred/judgment of his things are at gyms today.
Dave Batista’s favorite wrestler is Warlord.
Ah a fellow wrestle me fan! That was the first thing that sprung to mind as well when i saw the first of these interviews 😂
Well spoken gentleman. Warlord is pretty sophisticated dude. Very cerebral
These have been the most surprising interviews you've done, he always came across as a right miserable f***er when i was a kid but he's just a big old teddy bear 😂
It's nice change of pace to watch an interview with a wrestler that's not still trying to put themselves over or rewrite their history. Very chill.
@@daniel_matthew0 exactly! I've never seen a wrestler so open about what he used either, obviously knew what he was doing tho cos he wasn't one of the long line of tins of spam looking dudes that didn't see 50 years old
This is a guy I’d love to have a beer with.
Luger had the genetics and the training. Tony Atlas was another great, as was Ron Simmons. And of course Warrior, Scott Steiner, Paul Roma, Hawk, Barbarian and Chris Benoit.
Could you imagine a beast like Larry Allen doing a power slam maneuver in the ring?? 😮😳
I heard an interview with Honkey once he said you had four types of guys in pro wrestling
1 lift and steroids
2 lift but no steroids
3 no lift but steroids
4 no lift and no steroids
The other question here would've been to have asked Warold who worked out a lot but didn't look like they did
Ted DiBiase comes to mind. Dude had no definition at all. Yet in interviews he claims he did a football workout of bench, dead lift, squat, & cleans 3 to 4 times per week.
@@Grapevined_BostonCrab I heard Brian Knobbs talk about it. Another example is Bobby Heenan believe it or not. He took them for a while & never worked out.
This guy seems like a really genuine, good dude. After looking into who he was I can absolutely believe he lifted 640 but probably not a true pause lock out powerlifting 2+ green light lift. He also seemed to have great self control and didn’t go overboard
Thanks, Warlord!
Excellent section of the video
Hulk Hogan did say that the Warlord would turn the gym upside down when he worked out.
I think him and Tugboat were the heavy benchers. I wish you asked him about the 500lb bench he did for 19 reps was real.
Love listening to Warlord, seems willing to share anything, and seems to be giving honest answers on everything. Seems like a good guy to have a beer with lol.
Love this series with Warlord. Talkin so casual honest and informative.. Met him on his WWS Europeantour 93 with the Warrior.. on their way to the gym. Monsters
When I was seriously into bodybuilding I was eating every 3-4 hours. It eventually got to a point where it was an unpleasant chore to be eating that much, that often. That’s as a natural though, I have never idea how roids would have affected that. I suspect that they don’t have to eat as much because of the actions of the chemicals.
Gave you a thumbs up. When I can be bothered to train properly, like you : eating small meals every 2-3 hrs. This also felt like a chore. "I'm only doing this because I need to. This is not enjoyable". I found thorough stick purely to heavy compounds for 3 mths and then shifting to a high volume varied workout for several months after, you NEED to eat to recover and fuel. The more you train, the more you need to eat, your body absolutely requires it.
Taking PEDs does actually do lots of the biological work for you though, after all, they are a synthetic testosterone. You can eat badly but with the right stack, you'll just burn everything off. You can't just use PEDs to increase mass or size though, you would have to take a whole host of other drugs to protect your liver, to avoid testicle shrinkage, infertility, gyno, acne and any other side effects. Many wrestlers passed away because on top of the PEDs AND the drugs to combat the side effects, many of them were also using uppers and downers WITH alcohol AND recreational drugs. That's just asking for death.
When bodybuilders give advice on nutrition and recovery. I take it with a pitch of salt as I KNOW they were using PEDs and that alone will invalidate anything they're saying.
Yep, packing away 30 grams of protein every 3-4 hours was not pleasant and a little expensive . Roids are not only very bad for the body as you mentioned but are very expensive as well. I talked to a friend who was friendly with one of the steroid freaks in our gym and he admitted to spending 3 grand a month on his gear. Way out of my price range.
@@trappenweisseguy27 I've been training for 20yrs and I have had friends, cousins and uncles use and abuse (totally unsafe levels) PEDs for years. Uncle had a fatal heart attack in 40s whilst driving to a wedding, crash his car and he went through the windscreen, his brothers also users had heart attacks one survived, the other didn't. Cousin had a stroke and died at 36. All 3 of them had enlarged hearts.
When I started training I'd chosen a bodybuilder as a template but realised that that person used steroids, chose another one and that person used. I looked at bronze era bodybuilders in the end. Whatever you do to get results (proper diet, protein power, PEDs) you have to be able to maintain that commitment.
Personally, for me, steroids are a waste. I can train and eat properly and get the "are you using steroids? Are you sure your not using steroids?". Stay clean, you will ALWAYS have the edge over people that lift, especially in the long run.
Glad to see him still alive.
Deadlift only if you want to be great at deadlifting, great to hear that reaffirmed by a giant of a man. Your basic bench, squat, military press, preacher curl, rows are all a person needs.
Can we sub curls for chins, rows for dips?
As the legend is told, Ron Simmons worked out once a month. He'd show up in jeans, cowboy boots, and outlift everyone. Ten minutes later, he'd be gone.
I can definitely believe that he could bench 640.
Warlord was one of my favourite wrestlers due to the way he looked. Absolute unit of a man.
Into his unit, huh
I remember and interview with Davey Boy in 94. He said Warlord would eat three extra large pizza’s on one go. Davey and Warlord were great friends and trained together. I believe the interview was in muscle and fitness magazine 94. Sure if you google it it’s out there
Warlord would be a good competitor in bodybuilding. What do you guys think?
Would not likely excel as a competitive bodybuilder, and I'm saying that as a huge Warlord fan. For a big man, his clavicle width is a narrow and he has a wide waistline. Not to say he wouldn't look fantastic, he just wouldn't be able to compete at a professional level.
Warlord was a beast! 640lbs bench is freakish....
Warlord life advice: Schoolwork first, then lift.
Well done Warlord, well done.
I need to see pics of Warlord at 18, before working out. Would love to see him in his teenage years.
Lord his big 3 was probably around 2000
I hear it was 620 but that’s still crazy
Warlord could’ve been a hell of a competitive powerlifter or strongman competitor if he tried. I’ve deadlifted 600lbs and I’m 5’8, 240lbs and really really tried to get my deadlift up. He could’ve easily done far more than that and he wasn’t even really trying to get his deadlift up. Unbelievable power and that stuff. I love this guy.
Dude, you should just start lifting small cars on the street! 600 is nuts.
@@BruceMichaelFilmslol maybe a Smart Car
Kerry von erich❤
Eating lots of food to maintain weight makes me wonder. What percentage of professional wrestlers have heart disease. Many people do not know it till they have a heart attack.
I was buying protein powder in 1988 🤷♂️
No mention of big Lenny and Andrew collura? Forgetting your friends warlord.
Read that Phelps admitted he never ate 10'000 calories a day at all, it was all done for media effect, but because it's on TV or in the paper it must be true
Those amino acid pills were huge!!
when did he start steroids, which ones did he use and for how long did he cycle
Their was protein powder back then.What is he talking about?Big john studd ate 10,000 calories aday to try look like andre.
*AND THAT STUFF*
They had protein shakes in the 80's and 90's
Yeah, but they were clumpy and blah!
Rude worked out only his upper body.
Rick stuck me as the type who probably trained his legs hard but just could never get much in the way of gains
@@stevejamieson8468 No, he didn't train them. He even told Steve Austin that it's all about the upper body or something to that extent. I'm actually starting to develop the same mindset. I mean when it comes to looking aesthetically pleasing, who cares about a dude's lower body? Muscle wise, who cares about a woman's upper body? I've been just focusing on upper body.
@@osaji922 The fact remains that upper body only is still only half the body. I am 6'3, 41, and I still trained my legs hard. Never could get it to match the upper body
Would love to know what Warlord can still bench today in his early 60s. Bet it's still at least 400.
Barb' is working with 350lbs for a few reps.
@@robdoe8694 No doubt.!
How much more evidence do people need that protein shakes are BS? Intensity, consistency. The amount of protein most people think they need compared to the fluffy workouts they do is comedic.
Interesting, I also went to UNI, great college!
640lbs is an insane bench press! I lifted heavy for football (I was around 6'5" 265lbs), our strength coach wouldn't let us dead lift over 500lbs for more than 5 reps because he didn't want us to get injured. It was easy for me, I did a 630lbs deadlift for 10 reps. It wasn't that hard. The coach saw me and I got yelled at. I wonder what I could gotten my max deadlift too..
I know eh? As I told you before, I did 685 for 27 reps and it wasn’t too hard, but who knows what I could have done if people weren’t mad at me! Just stuck with the 27 reps.
Black Bart is in a bad way nowadays from what ive heard
LOLmost of these comments are cringe
640lbs? Common now. I'll believe 540lbs. I never saw him manhandle a large big man in pro wrestling like Bulldog did, or like Warrior did, or even Hogan or Goldberg did. And those guys only claimed to best bench from 450lbs to 525lbs
Totally legit. I personally saw him incline 455 x 14 effortlessly. He was insane.
All of the steroids never gave him charisma
640 with a bench shirt? Pause? There are variables that make a big difference. I hated bench shirts because they hurt and left terrible blood blister type marks on me after maxing out. And I never paused.
That was probably a raw bench press.
