Gratuitous Amounts of Bicep: CT Fletcher

If you’ve never heard me say it, I’ll say it again: you can only curl in the squat rack if you are going to rep two plates or more. We are talking a 135 pound minimum…

CT Fletcher is allowed to curl in the squat rack. In fact, CT Fletcher is allowed to do whatever he wants really, because I sure as hell ain’t going to get in his way. I wasn’t even talking shit, but I still got scared when I was sitting on the couch blogging and he says, “what the fuck you gone do besides sit on the couch and talk shit? You hip-having ass, you punk poop butt motherfucker.” I am not entirely sure what his insult was, but it sounded like “punk poop butt motherfucker,” and it sounded fucking mean. Black people are so cool.

The man is a beast:

CT Fletcher Stats:

  • 3x Drug-Free Bench Press World Champion
  • Best Competition Bench Press: 650 lbs (725 lbs in the gym)
  • Strict Curl Record of 225 lbs (“strict curl” has head, back, and posterior in contact with the wall behind the lifter)
  • Tookie Williams was his idol growing up

.

That should give you an idea as to who CT Fletcher is, and if you don’t like it, than “fuck you.”

Curling in the Squat Rack

Curling in the Squat Rack

Curling in the Squat Rack is silly. That just isn’t what the squat rack was made for.

It doesn’t allow for proper form; you can see in the illustration above that the Skip has no room to follow through on his shot.

Lesson learned? Don’t curl in the squat rack.

…Unless you can can lift some heavy-ass weights. Because if you can curl more than most squat, then you can do whatever the fuck you want:
