Dusty Hanshaw 5 weeks out

[heavyhitter]

I love Dusty. He's the guy that everyone kinda roots for to do well. Works hard as hell and is blue collar bodybuilder just like JM.

that being said Dante, there's no way he's 270 on stage...

You don't think so? Ive seen Dusty in person....the guy is enormous

Pictures do not do justice for how big Dusty really is. Cant wait to catch up with him at the Vancouver this year.

He is in the 270's before he cuts his water....

No shit? I'm here in AZ and I've trained at the same gym as dusty a couple times. Small world. Matt Kafora trains at the EOS by me pretty often too. Dusty really is tank thick though. Front to back this guy is as thick as a coke machine

North Scottsdale EOS? My avatar is from that locker room lol. Remember you saying you were in AZ but didn't know we were so close. Yea Matt is a big dude too. He's made some crazy progress since we became Dusty's training partner.

Would not be saying that if you saw him in person in contest condition.

Hope Dusty does well I've followed him for a long time now. Kinda stinks though ya know that after he turned pro he couldn't for obvious reasons post much on here anymore.

I've been wondering what happened with him and iForce. It seemed like all of a sudden he was with mutant. Did iforce go under or did they drop him or something?

IForce made some bad decisions...and those bad decisions cost them a grip of money and they were bought by Hi-Tek and are pretty much a shadow of what they used to be.

I always wondered how long Iforce would be able to sell those pro-hormones before they'd have some issues, and have a big chunk of their profits suddenly be sliced.

No shit? Small world. I've trained at that one a couple times...but there's an eos in Peoria closer to where Matt lives and I've seen him and dusty in there a couple times too. And ya Matts a big boy. Front to back he's like 3 feet thick

See I really get geeked on people who accomplish something that their genetics show they shouldnt be able to accomplish.

Thats why when i see that video of Shelby Starnes getting interviewed after he won his pro card and how emotional he is....I get tears in my eyes every time i see that interview. That guy should not have made it and he WILLED himself to make it.

Same thing as Dusty....When Dusty hired me to train him this is what i got on the left...thats not pro material man. It is the pic the day before i started training him. He had done a show at 224lbs and got 5th in the heavyweights and this was him offseason. He was about 268lbs i think and I felt he was too smooth and had too much fat on him at that point in the offseason....so i dieted him down to an acceptable bodyfat and then we plotted out a plan to make him into a legit superheavyweight bodybuilder....270 280 290 300 and then 310lbs....and that made 224lbs onstage a distant memory. I made Dusty and virtually all my trainees send over their workouts every few weeks so i could look at them....this guy embraced what I was trying to do with progressive weights on key exercises like no tomorrow. Some of the weights he was using after a few years of DC training....were freaking insane...boggled my mind to be honest. We shot a photoshoot for Flex magazine a few years back and he is doing inclines with like 425 pounds for 13 reps rest paused....it was ridiculous. Just a human forklift.
The pic on the right is 3 years ago and he is even bigger now...but you can see how how hard he lifts changed a roly poly guy who doesnt look like he is going to make the pro ranks in 100 lifetimes....to a completely different person. That 224lbs onstage is now over 270lbs onstage.

I totally respect guys like Dusty and Shelby who while at a disadvantage attain something that people with tremendous genetic gifts cannot........ thru sheer willpower and grit

All the respect for Dusty, he is a true worrier.
