Any gymrat bassists?

Just curious how many may be adament weighlifters or even amateur bodybuilders/powerlifters? Always seemed to me like the bass should be handled by some burly guy with big arms but all i ever see is scrawny or overweight (usually better than the jacked bassists :( sadly) oh well, let's here from you guys, may be cool to include your best lifts or best show finishings or throw in your $.02 on the Arnold classic, Mr.O, or upcoming or senior pros. Probably won't have enough to become a club but thought it might be neat :cool: lets hear what kind of bass and amp your going through too, since it is technichally a bass oriented site... :rolleyes:

I am a pro of the 12oz curl, usually I go for at least 14 sets but sometimes pass out at 12... Depending on the amount of time
