Who's still here 6 years later? Legends never die. They may go away physically but Legacy lives on. 725 on the bench 225 on strict curl! Which one of you is coming in second!?!
@@intenselifter5538 yeah I know, just checking if you as intense as you say, good deadlift bro ! Thats like 305 kilos, huh ? I only tried deadlifting like five times 15 years ago, at 17 I did 420 for 2 sets of 15 by the fifth workout but I never trained for powerlifting, so Im excactly the opposite of you, more of a good bencher, curler, one~arm chinup guy , but if I trained the deadlift I probably would have been okey at that too, but I respect the hell outta a 600 plus deadlifter, ive been around a handful of them and know what it takes ! You certainly earned your nick in my book, and cool of you to answer brother in iron
@@danielkristiansen1386 Oh ya and I attempted 800 on the deadlift a while back but did not get it. Like CT says if you give your all tho you can't fail. I'm going to comeback around and get 800 sometime in the future. Yes you are like CT! A beast at bench and curl, those are good too, deadlifts are the most functional for me overall.
Wow CT, what an inspiration !! I started serious bodybuilding and powerlifting in the 60's 70's and 80's. I trained with some of the best in that error. Then I started having panic attacks, lost my job and today I am a 61 year old 300lb shit head, just feeling sorry for myself. After hearing your story I went and joined a gym and so far so good. Thank you !
This guy is so inspirational. I have a mechanical aortic heart valve (infection when I was young) so I have the same limits as him. I am a skinny kid, 155 5'10", and trying to get bigger. Seeing this guy big as fuck with the same limits as I inspires me to keep pushing
Always come back here for the motivation. CT is timeless and been a blessing for me in my fitness journey. I'm back to hear it again and get my health back in check.
I remember watching this 10 years ago. I was 19 and I just really started learning how to workout. Thankful that I got to see you grow as a human and motivate thousands, if not, millions of ppl over these past 10 years. Thank you CT. ISYMFS
I am totally impressed with you, I watched the Netflix doc. You are a genuine man, your Mom did a great job! You have a powerful testimony my man! God Bless.
i watched a Bill Goldberg video... he spoke of this man. i had to see the channel and i am absolutely impressed by what CT Fletcher does and how he motivates all those who come to him for that guidence. he is truly amazing. the dedication he has is unlike any. bless him and the work he does.
CT Fletcher is so RAW, and this documentary is super inspiring. Teaches you to never give up, but also teaches you to be humble because greed or cockiness in any form will destroy you. No one else, but YOU. People can apply this lesson in so many areas in life, not just the gym. Amazing story by CT Fletcher!
This video was my first exposure to CT almost a decade ago. Big love to pops for all he's done to inspire and motivate! Stay crazy stay hungry and get your mtherfkng sets in 💪🍁
1:29 " *I like to do pause reps sometimes, and think about the things that have gone on in my mind throughout the day and how anxious I am to get to the gym.... And just workout* "
Just saw the movie and. I was blown away.I use to lift 6 days a week,was solid as a rock,then I lost my father who was my hero,and all training stopped,until now.This movie was very emotional and empowering for me to stop feeling sorry for myself.isymfs.thank you Ct.Mark
I listened to this video just as it was getting popular, before it had a Million views. This still inspires me to watch it again. CT Fletcher.... The Ultimate Motivator for the Un-Motivated !
I like to do pause reps sometimes and think about the things thats going on my mind troughout the day and how anxious i am to get to the gym and..just..WORKOUT!!!Legend
This is the video that got me motivated to train again..... greatest motivational trainer I've ever seen!! Long live the KING!! CT 'ISYMFS!!!' Fletcher
Bruh you not gonna ever die cause you live inside of allot of us bro so the point is you'll live 4 ever brother your name should've been motivation God bless you homie.
Balázs Gábor I legit just went to the comments section just to see if anyone else noticed that. I think it may have been an iguana. That shit looked pretty damn big. Lol 😂
This motivates me a lot. I've had two open heart surgeries and was not allowed to do any physical sports or activities. I took advantage of that and became lazy and weak. In 2012 at and age of 25 I said 'fuck this' and started lifting. Dropped 56 lbs of flab using silly ass high rep exercises with dumbells, then became serious about heavy lifting about 7 months ago. Since then I've added at least 100 lbs to each of my big 3 lifts, and the heart doctor was incredibly impressed by how healthy my heart is after doing this. Don't push yourself to death, but don't use it an excuse to be a bitch either.
i watch this video daily 💪🏾✊🏾I remember watching these videos about ct fletcher and iron addicts since i was 20 years old i been a supporter of him i definitely always took notes of his arm workouts thank you CT for being an inspiration to me 💯💪
I found CT Fletcher in 2018 on TH-cam and I was inspired and still till day I can't stop thinking of his mind set power he has and I try my hardest to incorporate it in my daily life. He died and came back as if God had a calling for him for us men to listen to. CT is like my big brother that inspires me and pushes me to the fullest and calls me out as a bitch even though I never met the man but In my mind I see him yelling at me to push harder.
I remember when I first saw this video when it came out, and no other video has had more of an impact. I really hope to meet CT one day so I can give him a big hug.
CT fletcher will you try only eating navybeans with boathouse farms carrot juice as a meal replacement to extend your time here on earth so that we youngsters grow old enough to enjoy meeting you and spending some time together hang out gym etc? how about wilderness farms almonds and oranges marketed by classic harvest, llc Dinuba, California, 93618? I'm being very specific about the foods because the different manufacturers make them taste different. those were my preference that I actually live by...eat daily. all these great legends that we will never meet or beat...like Bruce Lee because they died too soon.
Anyone here a star wars fan? Go to 9:09 at the end and CT makes a Yoda-like expression on his face similar to when Yoda was instructing Luke in the swamp.
seems like a guy whos been through it all. and an overall good person trying to teach people real lifting. and not feeding them performance enhancing drugs.
I am glad I am not the only one that saw that because I had to reverse the video 6 times because I thought it was a glitch in the video but like WTF was that? CT is absolutely correct about how you get big. You get big and strong by working your fucking ass off in the gym. Personally I just work out to stay fit not to get so big I walk like a corncob is up my ass. And you don't necessarily have to be muscles showing like CT to be strong because Paul Anderson sure was not muscle bound. Tendons and bone strength mean a whole hell of a lot when it comes to human strength. There are some people that are born with natural strength already programmed in to their DNA. I have my Father's DNA and when my father was 11 years old it was nothing for him to throw a 100 lb sack of feed over each shoulder and go to walking with it. CT has the DNA to get big and strong, so not everybody no matter how much they work out and eat right will get the size and strength CT has and if anyone tells you different then they are a liar. Just like not every guy is going to grow to the height of 7 foot! Genes folks. Genes! That is if you do it the natural way, you will only get as far as your genes will allow you to.
If you've ever been to a gym and seen a weight machine with a rope attachment that splits in two...that's what it is. looks like this in stick form :>----| ) [][][][][]
Truly Amazing man! It's all about respect and love for what you believe in. If we want to reach our goals, we've gotta to push forward. Your dedication and perseverance is sincerely inspirational and genuinely recognizable. It's been great watching you. Your spirit is undoubtedly boundless. Thank you for your time and for sharing your video! I wish all the best for all your future endeavours!

CT is a beast, natural or not, not too many motherfuckers can casually bench 405, hold the bar on their chest and talk in a mellow Bill Cosby manner.
not too many motherfuckers CAN bench 405 :)
***** right like for even a single one rep max.
He looks natural tbh from his videos he looks like least concerned about showing ripped muscles,he just looks like a big motherfker!
***** lol I was working my way up...I was 1 rep maxing 350 till I got a hernia and stopped going to the gym

CT fletcher will you try only eating navybeans with boathouse farms carrot juice as a meal replacement to extend your time here on earth so that we youngsters grow old enough to enjoy meeting you and spending some time together hang out gym etc?
how about wilderness farms almonds and oranges marketed by classic harvest, llc Dinuba, California, 93618?
I'm being very specific about the foods because the different manufacturers make them taste different. those were my preference that I actually live by...eat daily.
all these great legends that we will never meet or beat...like Bruce Lee because they died too soon.
