  3. “He and I were really good friends, it was just more of an acquaintance than anything else that my wife was trying to just spend time with him and to get on my good side, basically. And so Vinny comes home and he tells me, he's like, hey, I saw Andy, you know, and we were hanging out. She's super sweet. She's a nice girl, blah, blah, blah. He's going on and on. And he's like, you know, he's like, you're a fucking idiot. I don't know why, you know, you're with this girl, you're with that girl, and you're complaining. He's like, he goes, I got a saying. Either you're in or you're in the fucking way. He's like, and Andy, she's in. And so that speech right there led to Andy and I being married for 15 plus years now and having two children. Either you're in or you're in the way”

  4. “I went on a few dates with my now wife Andy and my friend at the time, a little Italian guy, very fiery, very excited, Danny DeVito-like sort of guy, but then also super jacked and super ripped and built and talked 100 miles an hour, chain smoked like a motherfucker, but looked like a pro bodybuilder at the same time. It was a weird combination of shit going on. His name was his nickname was Vinny Gumbatz. He was so abrasive and when he was talking to you, he always looked like he was like getting in a fight with you, but he's just telling you a story. But he's always moving his hands around so much and he was so energetic and loud and stuff. He used to stay at our house a lot. My brother just let him stay at the house for a while. He was kind of down and out for a period of time. And my wife ended up seeing him out somewhere. And then they spent like a few hours together. They hung out at the beach together and stuff like that while he's smoking and cursing up a storm at the beach. My wife thought.”

  5. “I like the quote that some of the quotes we have in the gym, but one of my favorite quotes of all time is either you're in or you're in the way. And a little back story on that. I won't go too long into it. But a friend of mine, I was single at the time and I was dating a few girls and was trying to find the right one, was trying to find Mrs. Bell.”

  7. “Thing's pretty badass. In terms of the lifting equipment in the gym, man, I really like we have, well, everything in there is so expensive. So there's nothing in there. But it's okay. Expensive. There's what's called the buffalo bar, which is by a friend of mine, Chris Duffin. Basically, it's kind of a spin on the buffalo bar, which is a bar that is specifically bent a certain way. So it's less stress on your elbows and shoulders when you go to squat. I like that piece a lot. And then we have something in the Gemini. I introduce you to that you'll really like. It's also by Chris Duff, and it's called the Geisha. And this thing is, I believe that's how you say it. It's 120 pounds of cement that is in the shape of a foam roller and you just roll it on your back and roll it on your legs.”

But for some reason, everybody wanted to take a picture of me with them. They instantly made me famous somehow. I don't know how that happened, but there's like hundreds of people in Japan? Yeah, yeah, in Japan. Well, that makes sense.”

  12. “To be so self indulged in what you're doing, it can really, as I mentioned earlier, it can be maddening when you're trying to chase after certain numbers and certain things. It can really make or break you. And so I'd rather do it. If I can't have fun and chase at the same time, I'd rather fall a little bit short and have fun along the way.”

  13. “That's an asset. There's no question about it. Having fun, how can having fun not be part of your success? And at the same time, if you're not kicking ass, not getting ahead, it's harder to have fun. Make no mistake about it. Like I'm a driven person. I want to kick as much ass as next person. But at the same time, I'm not going to sacrifice my training or I'm not going to sacrifice. I'm not such a serious person that I think everything's going to be diminished or interfered with if I have a couple laughs before I go do a list. It's not a great thing to.”

  14. “Be great when the time was right. And they stood the test of time. To me, that's the ultimate form of success is to be able to stand the test of time. I remember as a kid, as I started getting more and more into girls and stuff like that, watching my dad and seeing him as an example, I remember a couple times I'm like, there's no way that my dad is not going to look at this girl. It's impossible. There's no way this girl has too little clothes on for him not to turn his head and not look at this girl when she walks by. I don't care how in love with mommy is. Just no way, there's no way. It's not possible. My dad would never look. And to me, that's the definition of greatness. Somebody who's that disciplined and somebody who can make that sort of commitment.”

  15. “Doubt in our body. We talk ourselves out of stuff every day. We have naysayers. We have people that tell us that we can't. So sometimes that sneaks in and they're like, oh yeah, you know what? They're probably right. I'm probably right. I probably can't do that. I probably shouldn't be doing that. And so to me, success is the ability to continually get a lot of stuff done, whatever it is your goals may be, to continually make the right decision day in and day out and it's the act of being good for a very, very long period of time. Because being successful and being great is not something that can happen just in one particular day or one particular month. I've talked before about Michael Jordan and talked before about Muhammad Ali. These are not people that were good on just a given day. They were good for a long period of time. They did the right thing for a long period of time. And that prepared them to be.”

  16. “Regular people have, but they're amplified and their lives spin out of control very often through alcohol and other kinds of problems, as kind of pointed out in prescription thugs, those types of things become very real to the rich and famous. And so success to me is defined by the simple act of being good for a long period of time and doing the right thing over and over and over again. You know, people want a fast way to success. People want a fast way to getting better or self-improvement. And people often talk about like, you know, a steroid or this and that's going to get me here faster. Well, the ultimate pill that you could take is, again, the act of doing the right thing as often as you possibly can. It's hard because we have a lot of self-”

  17. “My pops My dad, yeah, all five foot four of'em. You know, I got a Bo Jackson rookie card sitting right here on this desk that we're at right now. And, you know, when I was a kid, I probably would have viewed that as success. But, you know, what I've learned over the years is that the success that we embrace as Americans and the success that we that people are judged by can actually be quite maddening to even ever reach. And it's not always all that obtainable. You want to think about success and you want to think about what it means to be successful. I don't know if people really truly think about what the term means to them. That's the most important thing. Like, what does it actually mean to you? If you think being successful as being in movies, then look at any issue of people magazine and see how many divorces and see how many problems a lot of these people have had that we would normally put up on a pedestal and say they're successful. They have all the same problems a lot of.”

  19. “That sensation to want to do more stuff, you probably shouldn't, especially if you're already cooled down. There's other days to train. There's other days to get the job done. And it's a long, long process to get stronger. It's a long process to be fit. It's a long process to stay in shape. So view it as that. Make sure you're getting in hydrated. Make sure you're sleeping well. And even if need be, then take a nap. All these things are going to be crucial in your journey towards succeeding at whatever it is that your goals are.”

  20. “The other element of the staying healthy as you get older is just to make sure that there's no stone unturned in your training and make sure you're not doing that stupid stuff at the end of your workout that's going to compromise. You know, at the end of your workout, you always have, you got the angel and the devil on your shoulder and the angel is always telling you, hey, you should go home. You should probably just rest. You should, you know, take today as a win, buddy, and just relax. And you got the devil telling you, no, you should do another set. You know, you need to be more jacked. And so when you...”

  22. “I don't. You know, I can't be that worried about tomorrow if I'm going to do the things that I really, truly want to do now. Now, it would be irresponsible not to think about it at all. So there are some things that I added, but when I say them, you'll laugh because it just sounds silly to even say out loud. But adding in more food has been a big part of it. Eating more food. Eating more food, yeah. More fuel, you know, you're going to need more fuel for the tasks that you need to be able to complete. And that's not to say that doesn't go along with getting older. Probably less food goes more along with getting older than anything else. But in order for me to be competitive, in order for me to stay strong, I'm going to need to add food into what I'm doing. So food is going to be a big part of it. And the sleep regimen is going to be a big part of it. It's ridiculous as that sounds. Jesse Burdock and I laugh all the time. We wanted to start a website called Restwad.”

  23. “Stuff. He's trying to be very violent with the weights. He's trying to rip the weight off the ground as fast and as explosively as he possibly can. So that's something that's a good take-home message for people. And then also realize he built up his deadlift by utilizing a lot of repetitions. I remember in the article he said he used to do sets of 10 and 15 routinely. You don't see that that often in the deadlift.”

  24. “Yeah, a great analogy for that would be you've done some MMA type stuff. You've done some martial arts and stuff like that. Imagine just learning a few weeks of martial arts and being like, okay, I want to start doing some stuff like Bones-Jones and where you try that is in the UFC against another professional fighter when you've had no experience with that. So sometimes you got to just leave some of the things up to the pros and recognize that they're going to look different when they do things. Constantine Konstantinov, it appears that he lifts with a rounded back, but is his back rounded or are his erectors so dense that when he goes to bend down, his spine just kind of looks that way. It's hard to really tell. I mean, the guy's so damn jacked. It's hard to really reference much of anything. The thing to learn from him, though, is the explosiveness and the intent. He's not out there to win a balloon or a lollipop. He's trying to break.”

He gets all Yeah, it was interesting in interviewing him, the text that came back was so harsh that when we started to edit it on our end, I was like, oh no, we need to leave some of that in there. I like how he's like, he's kind of like a really blunt. And he was also kind of mean too towards Americans. Like Americans are weak and Russians are strong and tough. And I was like, we're leaving that in there. I was like, that sounds great. I love this guy.”

  26. “What is referring to is like, hey, you know what? Stop worrying about becoming more mobile and stop worrying so much about your technique and your form. And he's like, it's not all these different things. It's just that you're a pussy and you're not strong enough. So work on being stronger. A lot of things can be really solved through deadlifting and squatting. And so his point was, hey, you know what? Let's just get more weight on your back. Let's have that be the focus rather than you spending 10 hours a day on your technique and the snatch or something like that.”

  27. “Oh, you know, it hurts like hell. So I guess my point is that sometimes some of these guys are on such another level. It's hard to really learn much from them at all. I guess like Dimitri Klokov, this is like going to sound ridiculous as saying it, but like one thing that he really preaches to other Olympic lifters is to get stronger. It's funny as that may sound. I think that”

  30. “You know, sometimes when you look at some of these guys, you do have to recognize that there's just different species among us. You know, there's some people that are just different. There's the guy in high school who's 6'4 and who's really lean, who gets all the chicks, right? I mean, there's some people that you just sometimes can't keep up with for lack of a better term. You don't know how to compete with them. And some of these guys are like that. Like you're truly and honestly just not ever going to be able to compete with them at some of the stuff they do. We have a lifter here for a long time, lift with us. He was a PhD in mathematics. And he said, I think it was like second or third grade. They put some equations in front of him for multiplication and division. And they're like, we're going to be going over this the next month. And we're going to review this. And you guys will know this like the back of your hand. And he was like, I already know all the answers.”

  31. “But this is advice from Ed Cohn, the greatest power after all time. He said, be nice to those who are nice to you, and that's it. Don't do anything else. And I always took that as like a challenge. That's really hard to do in life. You get somebody being mean or nasty to you. The only thing you can think of is like, how do I retaliate? How do I get this person's attention so I can get back to them? How do I get them to stop? How do I cut them off? I want to punch him in the face or whatever it might be. You know, that advice from him to me was critical and it came in a really good time. I was having some issues with an old member of the gym and stuff like that. And so it just kind of relieved me of that tension. I was like, you know what? He's absolutely right. Why don't I just, you know, why don't I just concentrate on what I'm doing, concentrate on the positive, great things I have going on and just be nice with that people.”

It just goes on forever and ever. But yeah, they're warm ups. They're very easy for him to do. They're 70% for him, 80%.”

  34. “But something I learned, the main thing I learned from him, I guess two things. When it comes to lifting, what I learned from him is that he likes to just do one set because he acquired so much strength that he really only needed the stimulus from like one main set.”

  35. “Now understands why I said it because he's a great person off the platform. He's a great person either way, you know, so he's somebody that I look up to in lifting and in life. He's a super awesome guy to be around. He's always very happy. He's always very energetic. He loves sharing. He loves helping people. He's going to be the first guy. He's going to be the first guy to help you. He's also going to be the first guy to brag that he helped you, which I think is funny. He brags to me all the time still to this day about how he helped this guy with that and he helped that guy with that. And he's so excited about it. And it's just great to see.”

  36. “Correct. And so there goes Ed Cohen. He goes up to the bar and he 887 pounds. And just like the true professional that he was, rips the weight up off the ground, locks it out. And it's kind of the only time you'll ever see him celebrate. You can find that video on YouTube. It's really neat to kind of watch because he doesn't really celebrate. He's usually very stoic whenever he does it lift so he can see him get really fired up and just a passion a guy has. The one time the time that he did come out here and the time that we spent with him here at Super Training, we shot some videos with him. We podcasted with him. And when he left that day, I told the rest of the guys in the gym, I'm like, well, that's it. Like, there's never, that's it. That's the goat. That's the greatest of all time. There'll never be another Ed Cohn walking through the door. So I was like, it's all just downhill from here with any other lifter that we get. And everybody's laughing, but everybody”

  37. “I think the 661 bench press that Bill Kazmeyer did, I could be wrong, but I think it was just in a t-shirt. Bill Kazmayer also squatted like in the mid-8s with a single ply suit, which was basically like a ramped up singlet of some sort. Didn't do a whole lot for you. Some cheap knee wraps, and they would just go at it, you know. And then Bill also was able to pull over 800 pounds. Cohn had to make up a lot of ground in the squat and a deadlift because he couldn't bench as much as Bill Kazmeyer did. But this one particular meet that he did down in Texas came down to the deadlift and Ed Cohn injured. So he gets down to his last deadlift and he's got to pull 887 pounds conventional.”

  38. “It's not just what Ed Cohn did, it's how he did it a lot of times as well. He's not a guy that cut corners. He's a guy that kind of used old school methods. He uses hard work. He's a tough bastard. He's a tough guy. And he's not going to let anything hinder, not going to let anything get in the way of him being the best. And so on his quest to topple this all-time world record, he would hit these huge squats. He'd hit a big bench press. And then a lot of times it would come down to the deadlift. Now, anybody who knows Ed Cohn, he's one of the greatest deadlifters of all time. He did a 901 pound sumo deadlift at one point at 220 pounds, a record that still stands to this day. Mind-boggling. He just had a belt on for that lift. Edge struggled a little bit in the bench press, though. So for him to try to beat Bill Kazmeier, by the way, had the world record in the bench press for a long time. He benched six.”

  39. “Bill Kasmire was a savage. There's no question. I mean, the way the guy was built was extremely impressive. He was very lean for how heavy he was. But, you know, when it comes to American strongman competitors, he's a legend. There's no doubt about it. Even just in the history of Strongman period, American or otherwise, he's a legend”

  40. “Yeah. We'll fear him so much. Is the greatest power through of all time? He's regarded as the greatest power of all time because he competed in a 220-pound weight class. There's a lot of different weight classes empowered thing. But from Ed Cohn's standpoint competing at 220 and 242, there's also the 275 pound weight class. There's a 308 weight class. And then there's super heavies, which the super heavy weights are guys that weigh over 308. Some of them weigh 350 and stuff like that. Ed was so strong that he was able to topple Bill Kasmire from back in the day. Kazmire told a little bit over 2,400 pounds, and Ed was able to surpass him. It was kind of a lifelong journey for him. I think it was like 1991 or so was around the time that he did it. He also, the style that he did it, the way that he did stuff was always super impressive.”

That's not what I know how to do. He's won a lot of competitions. He'd whip my ass in that. So I was like, you know what? I'm just going to do, I asked my brother and asked a couple other people. I'm like, should I do like a wrestling promo on him? And they're like, oh, fuck yeah, that'll be funny. And so I did a whole promo. You can kind of watch, you can watch on my YouTube YouTube.com backslash super training 06, where I said, Michael Tren, you're no longer my friend or something like that. The title of it. You guys will get a kick out of it. It was all for fun. And anyway, Mike retracted whatever he put up. I haven't talked to him since then, so I don't really know. I don't really know where his mind is at with that. But I got him with a couple good hard-hitting things on there.”

  42. “Yeah, so anyway, Mike has been a friend of mine for a long time. We used to train together. We used to power them together. And so he made a video very short kind of leamish video on Instagram where he called me out and he said I didn't really mind it too much. I mean still it doesn't really bug me much but the one thing that I didn't like is he said he's coming after my numbers and so I was like you know what like just a”

  43. “Natural meaning drug free. And before the internet came around, when he would say drug free and stuff, everyone was just like, oh, yeah, no one really cared. As the internet progressed and as YouTube became popular, you saw a lot of these drug tested lifters and a lot of drug-free natural bodybuilders become insanely popular to the point where they have 300, 400, 500, 800,000 followers. And those people started saying, you know what? Some of these people are full of shit saying they're natural. Who is this guy over here and who's that guy over there? And so that's kind of the stuff that's happened with Michael Hearn all the way to the point where they gave him a new name. His name is now Michael Tren.”

  44. “Yeah, so Michael Hearn has been on the cover of 500 magazines or so, according to himself, of course. I don't know if there's any real data to back that up. But Michael Hearn has been on the cover of about 500 magazines. He's a fitness model. He's been around for 25 plus years or so. He's always been in great shape. He's probably 6'2 or 6'3". He's probably 250, 260. He's always claimed to be natural. And so when he used to mean.”

  45. “Yeah, a more recent one with, well, I don't even know if he's a long-term friend anymore, but I don't know what happened, but it's with Michael Hearn, you know, who Michael Hearn.”

  46. “Obviously, you do care if they don't feel good, right? But at the same time, there's shit to get done. And so that's just the way I kind of view that. And the old wrestler and me kind of popped out for that moment and attacked that guy.”

  47. “Yeah, so once that, because I think in the video that I talk shit about the central nervous system or something, I said, well, maybe you're using an excuse because your elbow hurts or something. Well, I say, fuck your elbow. Just go in there and train. Don't worry about, you know, what do they say? violent attack today is better than a well-planned attack tomorrow. That's kind of the mindset. It's like, just go get the fucking work done. I don't care about the complaints. I don't care about your fucking excuses. It's kind of like, you know, you want certain work to be done. You have certain jobs that you want to be done from your camera crew that's right here. You don't want to hear them saying that they're lower back hurts or whatever. There's this job. There's just fucking work to do, right? There's stuff to get done. You don't care.”

  48. “Knowing that, the time that you spend on this earth, you might as well live it as a fucking savage and train and do whatever the fuck you want. And so when I said fuck you and fuck your elbow, I meant it. Fuck you and fuck your elbow. And so one second.”

  49. “On the internet. And for some reason, it's our singular focus rather than the people that love us tell us what a great job we do and how inspiring we are, we always focus on the negative, right? That's just the way it goes. So anyway, this guy was, you know, he said, I can't believe, you know, you tell people not to worry about their central nervous system and that they're using that as an excuse to not train and this and that. Just at the time stuff about the nervous system kept popping up over and over again. And I was just getting tired of hearing people use these excuses about how they need to like auto-regulate their training and they need special programming and all this shit. And so I was like, you know, I'm just going to cut a wrestling promo on this guy. I'm just going to give it to him straight. And so I went on to kind of say, you know what? Here's the truth. We're all going to die one day. We're all going to be in a lot of pain. We're all heading there. It's inevitable. Death is a part of life. And thinking of that.”

  50. “Yeah, improvised. I didn't even say, like, you know, hey, you're going to do an ad for this bar of soap. And then so I'd be like, oh, well, I'm not smelly anymore after using this bar of soap or something silly. You just had to go through it, right? Because there's like 50 other wrestlers watching you too. And so, you know, you felt like an idiot, but after a while you start to have fun with it and you become more comfortable with it and you started to really learn. I have many haters on the internet, as I'm sure you have acquired a few yourself.”
