Social media sensation Jesse James West is renowned for his unique content, offering a blend of bodybuilding, fitness, and entertainment. He boasts an impressive physique as well. In a recent video uploaded to his YouTube channel, West showcased his win at the 2023 Summer Shredding Championships while competing naturally.
Jesse James West first made headlines for his workout videos on his social media channels. He amassed a huge following of nearly 3 million subscribers on YouTube and over 960,000 on Instagram. He likes to push himself with different training routines and challenges. Besides bodybuilding, West has also tried out powerlifting, strongman, and other related activities.
West teamed up with Internet sensation Liver King to adopt his lifestyle of eating raw meat and training hard based on the nine ancestral tenets in Aug. 2022. He ate, trained, and slept like Liver King for 50 hours, all under his watchful guidance, and reported positive results in the end. Then, West collaborated with bodybuilding legend Jay Cutler for a tough upper-body workout. The four-time Mr. Olympia mentored him through the chest training and offered tips in a posing session.
West joined forces with fellow influencer Brandon William in an attempt to train like Navy seal David Goggins last August. The pair tested their limits following Goggins’ intense workout and diet for a day.
The 23-year-old partnered with powerlifting sensation Larry Wheels for an extreme workout challenge of lifting a total of 100,000 pounds in 60 minutes last November. West performed well but Wheels beat him as they raced against the clock to see who could lift the total first.
Earlier this year, Jesse James West tricked legendary bodybuilder Ronnie Coleman into believing he lifted a massive 700-pound squat using fake weights. Coleman was under the impression he motivated West to score a new PR but later found out he got pranked. He pulled a similar stunt on strongman legend Eddie Hall by lifting a huge 675-pound deadlift with fake weights two months ago.

Ronnie Coleman Puts YouTuber Jesse James West Through His Most Intense Chest Workout Yet

Ronnie Coleman Puts YouTuber Jesse James West Through His Most Intense Chest Workout Yet

Bodybuilding legend Ronnie Coleman left an indelible mark on the sport with his reign of dominance in the Men’s Open division. Besides his monstrous physique, he was renowned for his insane feats of strength in the training room. In a recent video uploaded on YouTube, Coleman teamed up with fitness influencer Jesse James West to put him through his most intense chest workout yet. 
Ronnie Coleman first gained attention for his freaky muscle mass, size, and conditioning as a Men’s Open competitor in the late 90s. He secured his maiden Sandow trophy by beating the likes of Flex Wheeler, Chris Cormier, and Lee Priest at the 1998 Mr. Olympia. He proved to be a dominant champion who defended the title successfully and retired with eight Mr. Olympia titles under his belt.
Coleman separated himself from the pack with his insanely heavy lifts in training. He pulled off massive feats, such as the 800-lb squat for two reps and the 2,300-lb leg press. ‘The King’ carried his passion for bodybuilding after stepping away from professional competition.
He recently backed former 212 Olympia champion Derek Lunsford to dethrone 2022 Mr. Olympia Hadi Choopan at the upcoming edition of the event later this year. He also ranked reigning four-time Classic Physique Olympia winner Chris Bumstead’s physique as the best he’s ever seen three months ago.
Ronnie Coleman praised Lunsford as his favorite bodybuilder of the modern era last month. Along with Lunsford, he extended his support for the 2023 Arnold Classic winner Samson Dauda as one of his two top two contenders.
Coleman picked up several injuries over the years due to his intense training methods. He’s gotten stem cell therapy and reported positive results in terms of pain management. He shared that the numbness in his arms and legs went away and expected his nerve damage to heal in about two years. Coleman revealed his mobility hadn’t improved much from the stem cell treatment over three weeks ago. He reported some of his muscles were not being stimulated and expressed concerns about atrophy in his lower body.
Legendary bodybuilder Jay Cutler, who developed a fierce onstage rivalry with Coleman, praised his former foe for his contributions to the Open class. The four-time Mr. Olympia believes no competitor has been able to reach the gold standard Coleman set for the division since his departure. 

Fitness sensation Jesse James West joined forces with Coleman for a training session earlier this year. Coleman was under the impression he’d motivate West to record some new PRs but West pranked him by using fake weights to score 700-lb squats and more massive lifts. West pulled the same trick on iconic Strongman Eddie Hall when he crushed a 675-lb deadlift using fake weights two months ago.
Ronnie Coleman Puts Jesse James West Through His Most Intense Chest Workout
In a recent YouTube video, Ronnie Coleman mentored Jesse James West through his most intense chest workout five days out of West’s bodybuilding contest.
“Today, we’re going to see if I could survive his most intense chest workout,” said West. “What’s the secret to a big chest?”
“Heavy lifting,” said Coleman.
The chest workout included:

Flat Bench Press
Incline Bench Press/Barbell
Dumbbell Chest Press
Dumbbell Chest Fly
Seated dumbbell curls

They trained at Coleman’s famous gym where he’s trained for over 33 years. Coleman recalled the 800-lb deadlift he recorded as the most memorable lift from his days of competition.
Coleman revealed he’d train lighter one week out from a contest. He’d use both barbells and dumbbells, reserving a day for each. He listed the flat bench as his favorite chest exercise. He trains for 45 minutes every day. Also, Coleman carb-depleted and carb-ed up for Mr. Olympia contests and ate 600 grams of protein a day.

West is gearing up for a bodybuilding contest. He partnered with four-time Men’s Physique Olympia champion Jeremy Buendia for a brutal shoulders workout to get ready for the show last week. Meanwhile, Ronnie Coleman announced his partnership with Panatta Gym Equipment to build a unique gym earlier this week.
Being under a week away from his bodybuilding show, West couldn’t have asked for a better mentor than Coleman to get him ready for contest day.

Fitness Influencer Jesse James West Teams Up With Bodybuilder Jeremy Buendia for Shoulders Workout

Fitness Influencer Jesse James West Teams Up With Bodybuilder Jeremy Buendia for Shoulders Workout

American bodybuilder Jeremy Buendia set the gold standard for the Men’s Physique division before taking to the sidelines in 2018. In a recent video uploaded on YouTube, Buendia mentored social media fitness influencer Jesse James West through a brutal Mr. Olympia shoulder workout 23 days from his next show. 
Jeremy Buendia gained a passion for working out early in life and started competing in bodybuilding competitions in his teenage years. He first rose to prominence for his insane upper body development, conditioning, and symmetry as a Men’s Physique competitor in 2013 when he took silver to Mark Anthony in the division’s inaugural Mr. Olympia event.
Buendia returned the next year sharper than ever and took home the top prize at the 2014 Mr. Olympia. He went on a dominant run that saw him win the Men’s Physique Olympia title four times in a row. After dropping the crown to Brandon Hendrickson in 2018, he stepped away from the competition.
In Oct. 2022, Buendia offered the huge 4,600-calorie bulking diet he utilized to pack 19 pounds in two weeks. Having teased the possibility of returning to the stage with a more jacked physique, he took full advantage of the off-season. Following the crowning of Erin Banks at the 2022 Mr. Olympia, Buendia confirmed his plans for a comeback and declared his ambitions to reclaim the Olympia title.
Buendia gave his take on the current crop of talent in the Men’s Physique category earlier this year. Given how stacked the division is, he believes he would need to bring a flawless package to contend with the most elite competitors. 

Jeremy Buendia left the fans stunned with a ripped physique update four months ago. He revealed he’s taking TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) along with peptides and weighed around 210 pounds lean ahead of his anticipated comeback.
Social media sensation Jesse James West has carved out his own space in the fitness community with his athletic and entertaining content. He often collaborates with some of the biggest names in fitness for pranks and insane workout sessions, such as former World’s Strongest Man Eddie Hall, and bodybuilding legend Ronnie Coleman. 
Jesse doesn’t shy away from any sort of workout challenge. In the past, he adopted the lifestyle of Liver King for 50 hours before partnering with four-time Mr. Olympia Jay Cutler for a chest training and posing session.

In a recent YouTube video, Jeremy Buendia guided Jesse James West through a challenging shoulder workout session to help him get ready for an upcoming show in 23 days.
Buendia revealed he’s around 200-205 pounds, eats 350-400g of protein, and consumes 5,400 calories a day to gain muscle.
Buendia Shoulder Workout:

Hammer Strength Shoulder Press: 2 warm-up sets, 3 working sets
Dumbbell Lateral Raise: triple drop set 4 times.
Cable Front Raise /Supersets With Plate Overhead Press
Cable rear Delt Fly/ Supersets Bent Over Dumbbell Rear Delt Raise

Jeremy Buendia gave fans a look into his preparations with a push-day workout update showing off his jacked physique last month. He credited the modern Men’s Physique contenders for evolving the division and hinted at bringing a revamped package in his return. Buendia followed that up detailing the 4,000-calorie bulking diet he’s utilizing to enhance his physique weeks ago.
Based on the latest update, Buendia looks to be well on his way to a successful comeback. His tips will greatly benefit West as he enters the final stages of his prep for an upcoming show.

Jesse James West Pranks Eddie Hall With 675-lb Deadlift Using Fake Weights

Jesse James West Pranks Eddie Hall With 675-lb Deadlift Using Fake Weights

English Strongman icon Eddie Hall first made a name for himself with his crazy feats of strength in competition. Although he stepped away from competing years ago, he continued to expand his footprint in the fitness world. In a recent video uploaded on YouTube, Jesse James West pranked Hall by recording some massive lifts using fake weights.
Eddie Hall kicked off his professional Strongman career in 2010 with a dominant win at England’s Strongest Man contest. He worked his way up the ranks and qualified for the World’s Strongest Man competition for the first time in 2012. He was at the height of his powers for the 2016/17 season when he set a new World Record on the deadlift of 500-kg (1,102-lb) and secured the coveted WSM title. 
Hall took on fellow Strongman legend Hafthor Bjornsson inside the boxing ring in a bout billed ‘The Heaviest Boxing Match in History’ in March 2022. He dropped weight preparing for the contest and presented a leaner look. However, he failed to get the nod on the judges’ scorecards.
Earlier this year, Eddie Hall took inspiration from former two-time Mr. Olympia Mamdouh ‘Big Ramy’ Elssbiay and reigning four-time Classic Physique champion Chris Bumstead’s performances at the 2022 Mr. Olympia and announced his switch to competitive bodybuilding. He plans to make his debut in late 2024 at a weight of around 320 pounds (145.1-kg).
Eddie Hall teamed up with IFBB Pro bodybuilder Jamie Christian-Johal for an intense back workout to get ready for the move four months ago. The duo collaborated again for a laborious chest training session weeks later. Then, Hall performed a brutal back workout to improve his physique.
The 35-year-old opened up on the challenges of competing at the highest level in Strongman three months ago. He revealed he’d consume about 15,000 calories a day and even wolfed down 20,000 calories in a single day once. He stressed the importance of proper recovery for optimal performance.

Eddie Hall joined forces with legendary bodybuilder Jay Cutler for a grueling upper body workout two months ago. The four-time Mr. Olympia praised Hall’s work ethic after mentoring him through the session. Hall later partnered with powerlifting sensation Larry Wheels, who’s preparing for his Classic Physique debut; they took part in a taxing shoulder workout.
Internet sensation Jesse James West amassed a huge following on social media with his entertaining content centered around fitness. Besides playing pranks, he tries out different workout plans, gyms, and diets. He put the nine tenets of ancestral living to the test by trying to live like Liver King for over two days under the guidance of the man himself last August.
Jesse James West Pranks Eddie Hall with Fake Weights
In a recent YouTube video, Eddie Hall got tricked by Jesse James West into believing the latter recorded some insane lifts when he was actually using fake weights.

Jesse started with Squats using weights as follows:
1. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 45lbs2. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 135lbs3. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 225lbs4. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 315lbs5. Fake Weight: 405 lbs, real weight: 315lbs (Prank begins)6. Fake Weight: 455 lbs, real weight: 365lbs7. Fake Weight: 495 lbs, real weight: 315lbs
Bench Press using weights as follows:
1. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 135lbs2. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 225lbs3. Fake Weight: 315 lbs, real weight: 225lbs (Prank begins)4. Fake Weight: 365 lbs, real weight: 275lbs5. Fake Weight: 405 lbs, real weight: 225lbs
Deadlift using weights as follows:
1. Fake Weight: 0 lbs, real weight: 135lbs2. Fake Weight: 225 lbs, real weight: 135lbs (Prank begins)3. Fake Weight: 315 lbs, real weight: 225lbs4. Fake Weight: 405 lbs, real weight: 315lbs5. Fake Weight: 495 lbs, real weight: 315lbs6. Fake Weight: 585 lbs, real weight: 405lbs7. Fake Weight: 675 lbs, real weight: 405lbs
West played a similar prank on bodybuilding legend Ronnie Coleman earlier this year. He misled the eight-time Mr. Olympia into thinking he lifted 700 pounds on the squat before revealing he used fake weights for the stunt. He also collaborated with top strongman contenders Luke and Tom Stoltman for a Strongman-style training session three months ago.
Although Hall was aware of the possibility fake weights could be involved, West’s acting skills convinced him otherwise.

Johnson put together a plate for West to try. There were many types of raw meats, including testicles, pizzle, and bone marrow.

Before hitting some core workouts, Liver King usually decides to put himself through a 24-hour fast. Once the workout was over, West asked about hygiene when living these traits. Johnson explained how the armpits help detox the body by dispelling sweat.

“There’s no point in showering. I’ve not used soap or shampoo in a very long time. I use soap on my hands, but I don’t use any of that other stuff. I’ve not used that other stuff for over a decade.” Liver King explained.
The duo moves onto a meal of shark while discussing what is in store for the rest of the day. West expresses that this workout was no joke.
“I can’t flex my abs. That was one of the hardest core workouts I’ve ever done,” West said.

Sleeping

“Two hours before bed. They block the blue light. Yeah, and then you know, probably at 10:30 or 11, I’m going to turn the electricity off.” Liver Queen said to West.
The next day consisted of “The Barbarian” workout that Liver King has made famous. This is a workout that includes wearing a 70-pound backpack and 20-pound ankle weights while holding 70-pound kettlebells and pulling a 120 pound sled for one mile.

Jesse James West performed a set of 10 reps before the workout ended. Prior to his final set, he asked for advice from Coleman.
