Look him up on youtube. Guy's name is Andy Ruse, but his youtube name is Blenderate. He's definitely a freak of nature. And the best part; he drives a smart car. Really nice guy though.
Yeah I have talked to Andy a few times and the guy is a freak of nature! even when he was recovering he trained hard! Though I wouldn't recommend the "No hook" rule for a beginner lifter let alone a veteran...lol
