Can YOU Do This??? (Big D's Man Test)

What's Crackin' SWOLEdiers?!
I remember like it was yesterday training
at the local YMCA in the middle of
Downtown Jacksonville...
That's where I caught the Iron Bug...
It wasn't quite the MAN Cave, but in
my head at the time that place was a
dungeonous pit of pain and pleasure...
I put myself through set after set of torturous
pain and burning of muscles, so that I could
build utter DOMINANCE on the field and
playing the field!
Soon I got the attention of the biggest and
baddest dude in the entire gym...
Big D was his name...I'm sure that wasn't his
REAL name, but no one had the balls to ask
so that's just what we called him...
This dude was JACKED, RIPPED, and Stronger
than anyone I'd ever seen in my life! (Think Jon
Coffee in Green Mile)...
Big D pulled me aside one day and told me
something that humbled me and motivates
me still to this day!
"Hey young blood. You're doing your thing
and that's cool, but you ain't even pulling twice
your bodyweight! That's not REAL lifting dog!"
I was embarrassed, but he had a point...
There's no room at the MAN's table if you can't
deadlift atleast twice your bodyweight.
If you can't and you're looking to build stacks
of dense muscle as well as become as explosive
as TNT, check out the solution here:

P.S. I ran into Big D about a year ago when
I was training over the holiday and pulled
2.5 X Bodyweight in front of him...He was
all smiles!!!
