Muscle Gossip #8: Poundstone To Compete at Bros vs Pros 5!

 

On Monday Night’s HEAVY MUSCLE RADIO show, 2x Arnold Strongman Champion Derek Poundstone officially announced that he’ll be competing in the December 11th Bros vs Pros 5 derek-circus_lgDeadlift Rematch. Poundstone is still recovering from a quad tear, but claims that it was one of Dave Palumbo’s posts on the Rx Muscle Forums-- doubting Poundstone’s ability to win Bros vs Pros with ease—that prompted him to enter this Saturday’s challenge.

 

In his radio interview, Poundstone commented that he was hesitant to enter the contest because he didn’t want to erase all hope of someone else winning, but Dave immediately countered and pointed out that this is even more of a reason for a gym “bro” to enter. And I have to agree. I mean, how awesome would it be to say that you beat Derek Poundstone, arguably the world’s strongest man, at his own game?

 

Dave at one point even uses the classic Pumping Iron quote: “Derek, you may be at the top of the mountain now, but these guys at the bottom are hungry!”

 

The end of the interview is very telling… After Dave thanks Derek for supporting Rx Muscle, an unshakably confident Poundstone preemptively thanks Dave for the $2,000 he believes he’ll win come Saturday afternoon!
