what is the name of 2nd pose icant find it

[@alfonsorodriguez6437]

The bar shows 300 lbs. But they are fake (probably less than 150 lbs)because is was acting for a movie, not a real exhibition or contest. Anyway, he was a strong guy but when lifting heavy in the gym he wore proper exercise attire, belt, shoes, chalk for the hands and a lifting platform for certain heavy exercises. Other than when posing, he wore a posing trunk while demonstrating exercises in the gym and most people think that is how he trained, which is incorrect. His measurements at 6" tall, 225 lbs, were 18.5" arms, 18.5" neck, 18.5" calves, 50" chest, 26" thighs and a 28" to 30" waist. He went for classic great proportions in those days instead of the cartoon like steroids physics of today. He died at age 72 of pancreatic cancer which can get you no matter what type of physical condition you are in. He was my childhood idol initially although I gravitated into Olympic weightlifting because I had a shot to lift in the Olympics, which I did in 1972. Steve Reeves had the original V shape that became the standard copied by every bodybuilder.

[@nortondumont9711]

I hope you're right about the weight being lighter than it appears because lifting it to the shoulders Continental style, as Reeves does here, would be very difficult in only posing trunks. He displays good pressing form in any case. Hey, did you get to meet Alexeev in Munich?

[@FluffiFluffsson]

He was 6'1" tall and weighed around 215 lbs, not 225. His arms were 17.5 not 18.5 Source: www.musclememory.com/articles/MrAsizes.html If the link doesn't work search first mr america winners measurements

The weight lift decided who won in a looks contest that tied on looks. That is why the weights were brought out. Steve Reeves was the whole package. That bodybuilding carried over and ended with Arnold. Steve muscled that weight up without a clean and jerk.

of course the weights are fake... this is clearly footage for a tv show or movie. this isn't steve reeves in top form either. Some feats of strength he really managed though are holding a fellow bodybuilder on a rope with his teeth and deadlifting a 400lbs barbell by gripping the plates with his finger tips. he could clean a heavy weight while kneeling too but the actual poundage escapes me..... strong guy man

[@igorstein5616]

+DuckSemenSliver He could kneel clean 220lb

[@AGC828]

Does any one know how old this movie is? And if Steve really lifted that weight or if that was a prop? I'm not saying he couldn't have lifted, what looked like maybe 350-lbs, but that stage floor I'm not sure it would have been able to take the impact of iron crashing down on it.

[@TonyMon16]

+Anderson C it was a prop.

[@skullduggery3377]

+Anderson C --- the film was 1954. it was actually a musical comedy. i've never seen it and i don't know why a scene like this would be in it. i would say the barbell was a prop due to the ease in which reeves lowered it.

[@AGC828]

Agreed. Looked odd shaped. The iron plates. Plus as I said...to even just put down that might weight on a wooden stage? Likely go through it. Or severely weaken it with so much weight on it. All the muscle bound guys in the background. And the way Reeves lifted and lowered that weight. Didn't seem to be done as it should. Odd they wouldn't have coached him. But it was in the mid-50's. We didn't really get films aiming for realism till maybe the late 90's.

[@igorstein5616]

+Anderson C No they were not real weights he was not a Weight lifter . Doug Hepburn could have cleaned and pressed it because at that time he was the Strongest man in the world

[@igorstein5616]

+obbzerver Watch Doug Hepburn Clean and press 400lb and then you know that these weights were plastic ,Doug did the Clean Rapid from the floor in one Quick movement and then in quick fire pressed it to Arms length and let the weight Drop to the floor. Steve pretends to Struggle with the weights and then he lets the weights down so slow which is a dead give away .If they were real he would have had his Arms ripped out and his Discs in his spine pulled out

+MechRoosterHat I have a friend that is bigger and natural. I know theres a lot of controversy because steroids are a huge part of it these days. But another huge thing that people are not realizing is nutrition. ITs so much easier to track what you eat and get just the right amount you need to just grow these days. My friend eats about 9000 calories a day and extremely clean. that kind of diet was not nearly as accessible back then. And I think it plays a huge part in it to

Elias, I`m just calling it as I see it, it takes a LOT to bend an Olympic bar - I know this from experience - and this bar is bending as he lifts it from the floor, that why I said that the actual bar must be plastic as well.

[@eliaskrieger142]

[@chrono8233]

obbzerver I think He also didn't believe in pumping up before a show like everyone else because he didn't think it was "real" You should look however you look without the illusion of a pump. And he also did not like cutting down body fat as much as some others because he didn't think it was healthy to promote that look, instead he wanted to look good and have enough bodyfat to be strong and athletic.
