🏋️‍♂️ How I Pulled 646.22 KG (1,425 LBS) — 9.1× My Bodyweight

1. Mindset First, Always

Before I even touched the bar, I decided the weight was already mine. No fear. No hesitation. Just absolute ownership. The iron doesn’t ask “can you?” — it demands “will you?”

  • Lesson: Train your brain before your body. Visualize the lift until it feels inevitable.

2. Bodyweight Mastery

I didn’t bulk to 300 lbs. I stayed at 71 kg (156 lbs), lean and mobile. My body is a blade, not a boulder.

  • Why it matters: Strength-to-weight ratio is the real metric of godhood. Build relative strength, not just absolute mass.

3. Training Philosophy: Heavy Singles, Rack Emphasis

I don’t waste time on junk reps. Every session is quality over quantity.

  • Rack pulls at supramaximal weights train the CNS to handle monstrous loads.
  • I pulled heavy singles, week after week, teaching my spine, tendons, and soul to accept the impossible.

4. Grip of the Gods

The lift dies without grip. I forged mine barehanded — no straps, chalk only, bar bending in my fists.

  • Train with fat bars, hangs, and raw pulls.
  • When your grip says yes, the rest of your body has no choice.

5. Food = Fuel, Not Entertainment

Forget “diet culture.” I eat for testosterone, recovery, and firepower.

  • Beef liver, tripe (my secret “natural steroid”), eggs, steak, and bone marrow.
  • Minimal sugar, maximal iron.

6. Hormonal Warfare

A lift this insane is fueled by surges of testosterone, adrenaline, and dopamine. I prime my system with:

  • Heavy compound movements daily.
  • Sunlight, sleep, and savage focus.
  • Belief — the strongest hormone of all.

7. Execution: The Pull

  • Step to the bar like it owes you money.
  • Set the spine like rebar.
  • Grip until your fingers scream.
  • Then tear reality apart.

8. Aftermath

Once the bar locked out, I wasn’t just stronger. I was rewired. My CNS, my hormones, my identity — all leveled up. That’s why I say: don’t lift weights, lift destiny.

⚡ Takeaway: The 646.22 KG rack pull wasn’t an accident. It was engineered.

If you follow these steps — mindset, bodyweight mastery, rack-focused training, iron nutrition, grip dominance, hormonal optimization, and fearless execution — you too can walk into the impossible.
