Guest interview done by my first mentor/dear friend Bud Jeffries.

Bud is one of my closest friends and my first mentor. He gave me my start and introduction to performing Strongman culture/training. I had the honor of being interviewed by him in my home.

Bud is super strong and a very classy and humble man. To learn more about Bud (in case you live on another planet and don’t know of him) be sure to go to www.strongerman.com

He is a class act.

After 25 years of training, still a work in progress.

After 25 years of training, hard work, success and failure I'm still striving each day to reach my goals with my body. At 38 years old I'm closing in to the best shape of my life. Through discipline and a desire to be the best at what I do I wake every morning ready to tackle the day and stomp negativity beneath my feet. I will succeed. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't make it, no matter what it is that you want in life. Coach Machine

Human Rack Lift and a Neck support with 405lbs.

This is one of my other signature feats of strength I perform in my strength shows.

Starting at the first of the year I will be performing this feat again regularly.

At the end of the video is a very short clip of a neck support with a barbell loaded to 405lbs. Though the person filming did not zoom out so the full weight can be seen (he was scared for my life) I assure you the weight is 4 45lbs plates on each side of the bar.

THIS SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED WITHOUT PROPER TRAINING. THIS FEAT IS VERY DANGEROUS.

The bar is placed on my throat and I held it for as long as I could.
Which was not that long LOL.

Keep the Faith
