(6 &#8216;1, weighing 240 lbs in his early 50&#8217;s) doing a set of squat max, in hopes that it will inspire him and others to keep getting stronger. I met him 8 months ago and it was about the time he finished his personal trainer&#8217;s program that consisted of the CrossFit method. He gained a few improvement from what he told me.<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">I usually don&#8217;t like working out with a buddy, but since I was new to Chicago I thought it would be a great way to meet friends. We would train 3 times a week in the morning for less then a hour. Now, fast forward 8 months, he can squat 405 lbs for 2 reps from what used to be only squatting 185 lbs for 8 reps. I believe he will get up to 500 lbs in no time.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #666699;\">After I posted up the Instagram video, I had tons of people asking how he did it. People didn&#8217;t believe me when I told them, so I&#8217;ve decided to write an extensive book for people who want to lift twice their weight. This will be a new Pete Physique fitness book that will be coming out for people looking to gain incredible strength like my buddy G.T.\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #666699;\">If \u00a0you havent seen the video already check it out below, and follow my Instagram wwwpeterfevercom for daily pics and videos!<\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/instagram.com\/p\/dADuN9uJq0\/embed\/\" height=\"710\" width=\"612\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I decided to \u00a0record \u00a0a video of my workout buddy who only started working out a year ago named G.T.
