Im enjoying seeing these vids.
I dont know of his past and these genetic talents (though might research some more!), so I have no opinion on whether its BS or not. Im still finding it very interesting to follow. Thanks for keeping it updated MO.

CT - I rekon when he says I havent trained in 3 years.. it means "I have not trained with any level of intensity that could result in gains".Originally Posted by C_T
With his muscle memory, maintence training could keep him in reasonable shape.
Yeah, despite what I think (& wrote) earlier - I'm still interested to see how he goes, can't wait to see what kinda improvements he can make in the time frame. At the end of the day it's got to be a good thing for BB'ing.

Levrone Transformation, 885 lbs Leg Presses:
June 4, 2009...
Here’s the whole leg workout. I’m not locking my knees this time, one of you called me out on that with a comment last time. Thanks. I’m listening to you guys so keep posting.
Stay tuned for longer clips. Next week we’re going to step it up with longer scenes, more sets, more instructions.
That’s a lotta weight. 885 lbs on the leg press (including 18 plates + estimated weight of machine) is no small feat. I’m able to do it cause of the hard work I did years ago and the muscle memory. If you work hard, too, you’ll get there. Keep following and we’ll help each other do the impossible.
LEG PRESS
1st set: 12 reps, 8 45lbs plates (4 each side)
2nd set: 12 reps, 10 45lbs plates (5 each side)
3rd set: 12 reps, 12 45lbs plates (6 each side)
4th set: 12 reps, 14 45lbs plates (7 each side)
5th set: 12 reps, 16 45lbs plates (8 each side)
6th set: 12 reps, 18 45lbs plates (9 each side)
LEG EXTENSIONS
1st set: 15 reps, 100lbs
2nd set: 10 reps, 150lbs
3rd set: 12 reps, 200lbs
4th set: 12 reps, 250lbs
5th & 6th set: 15 reps 275lbs
(Note: Increasing weight and reps at the same time might look a little backwards. Keep in mind I’m constantly re-adjusting as I come to terms with where my strength level is.)
LYING LEG CURLS:
4 sets: 10 reps, 150lbs
Levrone Transformation, Visualization Technique:
June 5, 2009...
"I really want you guys to try this today. Visualize your ideal physique, and then over time make the picture clearer in your head. Clear your mind and do it for a few minutes a day – it works. Tonight I’m posting chest, shoulder and tri workout, and a set from EVERY exercise will be included. Later.
- Kevin."
It's happening!
Levrone Transformation - “End Of Week Two” Photo:
June 6, 2009...
"Hey guys, editing and uploading the scenes from today’s workout was a little more involved than I thought – it’ll be up tomorrow. It was a killer workout. In the meantime, I hope this new picture will tide you over for now. Compare the picture at end of week one to the picture at end of week two – I see a difference. You guys have been following every step of the way, so let me know what you think."

Levrone Transformation, “Dinner”
"With all the hard reps and sets so far, this was the hardest thing I’ve done. Try eating dinner with a camera in your face. That camera person is nuts. I wanted to throw the camera out the window. When people see this they either cry laughing or just think it’s weird. Let me know what you think.
More footage from my last workout is going up in a few hours.
- Kevin"
Hahahahaha... Nomnomnomnom....
Cheers for the updates MO, that gym looks massive!
Levrone Transformation, Shoulder Workout #3
"Here are scenes of the complete workout from Sunday. Cardio & shoulders. You’ll notice that it includes that same clip with 80 lb dumbs – this shows one set from the exercises from that day.
I usually do four sets of each exercise. For the clips that I upload to this site, I usually just do one of those sets per exercise. I like to show the last one because that’s the most intense set, but keep in mind that I’m doing at least four sets per exercise. This may seem obvious, but I’m saying it for the benefit of my friends overseas who may not have the easiest time understanding what I’m saying on the video."
The size and shape of Levrone at 2 weeks in is phenomenal, there are guys who spend a lifetime in the gym and can't get in the shape Levrone is in now.
