Brian Siders Interview

Muscular Development MDTV - Gregg Valentino Interviews Brian Siders at 2008 Arnold Expo

at least it should be, work wont let me see if because muscualr development is a pr0n site

obviously..

[Alcoholiday]

gregg valentino may be the worst interviewer i've ever seen.

ever.

seriously, he sounds like he's got a hard on for siders. "Look at this forearms, he's an OX!!!" And, bashing bbers when "Muscular Development's" main appeal is to bbers?

[PowerManDL]

If you don't have a man-crush on Siders you're not a serious lifter.

Here are some numbers taken from his 2005 training logs:

1/ squats- 405x6x2, 505x6, 585x6, 675x6, 710x6 (belt and loose wraps on last set)

1/ BP(competion grip)- 315x5x2, 365x5, 405x5, 455x5, 505x3x2, 575x3x8, 575x5

5/ stiff legged dl- 425x6, 515x6, 565x6, 625x8 (PR)

I would love seeing what he's been putting up 3 years later!

Yeah As would I...maybe we can get an update

[Simon C]

Hhahahaha, funny shit.

Greg Valentino is funny! "I like the steak"

[Frank.S]

Siders may just be the best powerlifter competing right now.

Siders/Bolton/Thompson.. I think they are all pretty damn close in strength, of course bolton/thompson will have higher lift #'s due to federation and gear.

siders makes all of his lifts look really really easy. His 1000+ lb squats look like they could have been 1100lbs. Hardly ever grinds out a lift, very impressive.

[Simon C]

I wonder why he never goes to the IPF worlds lol, he would win!

[cycomiko]

Siders?

Not go to the ipf worlds?

I hope that was a joke

[Simon C]

I was just trying to find his results, and could only find that he won the worlds in 2004, 2005, but hasn't been there since then?

But then he was at the arnold this year, so...

[Alcoholiday]

i've also seen videos online of siders doing an 1100lb yoke run, and it looked effortless.

Siders got cut from the worlds for the last 2 years for competing against a banned lifter.

With his latest interview

Purepowerlifting.com Home of weekly Powerlifting Podcasts and USAPL Pennsylvania

he pretty much was unsure about '06 because it was around the due time for his kid. He has to hit the nationals hard this year to make sure he is in the running for the worlds.

no, you had the right code, but you only put the part after the = sign in the link that identifies which video it is. so when it says youtube.com/dkjadsaf=fdjklasfdl

[Frank.S]

it was showing the box for me, just nothing inside of it, which happens occasionally when firefox/flash/ubuntu is having a shit with me, so I had just assumed it was doing the same thing...

[cycomiko]

See if these work

Siders 992 lbs squat
YouTube - Brian Siders 992 Squat

Siders 744 lbs bench
YouTube - Brian Siders 744 Benchpress

Siders 815 lbs deadlift
YouTube - Brian Siders 815 Deadlift

[Frank.S]

did they change the head on bench press rule back?

That squat was pretty high for ipf. I think he needs to use more weight!

[cycomiko]

No, head must be on the bench, that is why brian almost bombed out of the meet. He did 744 three times

squat was fine
