Update: Here is the AMA thread.
Another Ask Me Anything (AMA) is comming up next week.
This time Jamie Lewis (Chaos and Pain) will be hosting an IAmI in r/weightroom.
It’s scheduled to begin Tuesday, December 6 at 8:00 PM Eastern.
- He is a strength athlete who’s competed in strongman and powerlifting at 165 and 181lbs. He’s currently the #1 ranked squatter and #2 ranked total on Powerliftingwatch (though his aggregate including 4th attempts puts him at #2 all time for raw/wrapless powerlifters) and competes without even wearing a belt, because he’s a dick.
- He is the sole writer for Chaos and Pain, perhaps the most reviled repository of nerdery, porn, strength training and nutrition in the history of the internet.
- Despite assertions to the contrary, he is not a complete meathead, as he holds a dual MBA from the Vienna University of Economics and the University of South Carolina, and his passion for historical strength sports is driven by his BA in History. Thus, the twisted produce of his mind generally stems from a mixture of Pubmed, esoteric nutrition and training texts, and personal experience, and is then overlaid with a massive amount of vulgarity to sweeten the pot.
- He’s just released a compendium of all of his training articles, available here to finance his preparation, travel, and sundry other costs for the RAW Unity 5, where he’s going to attempt to break the 40 year old records in the squat and total, beltless.
