Do you lift fake weights bro?
As we all know, Brad Castleberry has been accused of using fake weights in his training videos, because the weights that he lifts are astronomical…
Many YouTubers exposed Brad using fake weight videos one of them is Kenny KO. Brad was at Mr. Olympia when Kenny went to Castleberry’s booth to ask him up front:
“Do you lift fake weights?”
Watch the above video to find out how Brad Castleberry responded!

Fake or real, who cares, he looks like shit anyway & is a major douche, what’s with his sagging half chest? Looks weird
Hahahah if he looks like shit then what does that mean you look like? A shit that a shit shitted out?
much needed comment!
He looks like shit ? Move on dude
called gyno
Matt Henry worst gyno I’ve ever seen, thought maybe synthol injections gone crazy, looks lopsided, no top to his chest, never seen anything like it & he thinks he looks great, serious douche bag
not gyno
Roids….lol
Rich Farley no, it’s gyno lol
Patches O’Houlihan I still think it’s synthol, looks totally fake
Bo Yuan
Lol “ask the crowd!” There Are 5 people And none of them even lifts
Gregory Dekeyser roid rage xd
Theo Honing-Wassenburg
That is a lot of shit talking ??
Yeah
Like answer the fuckn Q instead of craping on
Stfu bitch
Cool post thanks
Gyno much
Lol kenny looked awkward trying call him out and brad looks like he trying to shit and can’t find a toilet
Looks like he’s coked off his tits
Big mouth .
yes yes!:D
Well, he is making money off of being fake, I can say that.
He didn’t answer the question directly lol his manger or whoever he is did most of the talking. But hey more power to him, he’s got more money than I do lol
No offense but doesn’t matter what he lifts he is doing whatever he does right he has a good physique and the generation iron guy looks like shit so why post a video making your self look stupid. It’s bodybuilding he built his body.
Patrick Carey
Whats he fuckim on
Lol. Crowd. All 3.5 of them.
Brad acts tough when this dude confronts him but when strength cartel roll up he drops his balls , walks off & puts his shirt on bahahahaha Breaking records yeah??
Haha exactly he shat himself
Strength Carrell rolled up with 5 guys too.true pussy style
Get off brads dick, they didn’t want to fight him they wanted him to answer the question and he ran like a bitch stop trying to justify him
Darcy Herbert oh please ? stfu. Its about time someone called him out face to face.
Confronting someone 5:1 is fucking lame. Walking away was the smart move regardless.
They just asked him to step on the platform but he ran off instead
Andrew Riley still wont do a lift off
Yes!
Funny he says “it’s about getting the results you want”, and “who cares what other people think”, and gets butt hurt when people call him out but yet wants to put this guy down saying he doesn’t look like he lifts and insinuating unless you look like him you don’t actually lift weights
Im not saying his weights are real or fake or whatever… but which gym on earth would allow him to role in fake discs and film it and not expose him…how does he do that somebody explain plz?
Or is the gym in on it with him?
Exactly
Didn’t know 24 hour fitnesss carried fake weights. Haha
Lol you have no idea what time he goes to do these lifts, and a big gym bag can Cary 4-6 fake plates easy. He’s a fucking poser cashing in on gullible people. Only ones that believe his numbers are real are the ones who don’t push or pull any big numbers therefore they haven’t a clue. Go to a power meet and see what it takes straight power lifters to lift the kind of world record breaking numbers he’s claiming. He’s a fraud but there’s enough gullible suckers to keep him relative.
Fake plates are out there and plenty of gyms have them.
Any world class gym with a photo studio, you know the kind fitness models uses, have fake plates for photo shoots.
Look it up if you don’t believe it.
As far as how much dingle berry lifts. Go watch Eddie hall and you tell me.
Shame on those kind of gyms.
Yes i do know what it takes for the elite. Just baffles me why gyms do that.. if i had tried that im my gym id be exposed immediatly… lord have mercy at the length people will stoop to to impress people….it was just a curious question.
It happens all the time…fake weights are usally used in bodybuilding videos
Yeah they usually use them during Long photoshoots. If you were doing a full blown workout for 6-8 hours it’d be impossible to still go heavy. So they make it look like they’re lifting super heavy and the athlete’s retain their strength longer.
What a stupid question it’s not hard to bring in fake weights and if you are cool with the manager at the gym they will almost always let them in.
Johnson Dave i did not get offensive with anyone so keep you narky comments up your ass you fb hero… and the question is relivant as to why a gym would allow somebody to fool the world.. the only thing stupid is why you would come on here with a bullshit comment on my thread if you dont want to answer then piss off to another thread pretty simple…. and no i never heard of a gym who would allow somebody to fool so many people yet not say anything…
But as people have answered my curiousity i respect them unlike people like you who pop up on feeds with nothing but bullshit. Everyone gets brave on fb yet i bet you are completly diffrent in real life… go train your supermodel six pack because you are one of those people who would do a fake model shoot to impress people just like the man in question. Its a stupid question to YOU because youd be the type to do just that to look good, to people like YOU everyone should know that already , it seems something common to YOU. ME ive never even seen a fake plate in my life and no i dont know any manager who would allow that, and NO its not common practise to people like me. Have a nice day ?
And thanks to everyone else who answered me sensibly
Jim Johnson I personally think this kid is a douche, however, I think they weights are real also. In some of his lifts the bar is flexing just like I notice it flex. Maybe he uses fake bars also?
Yes but for example say if he deadlifts 200-300kg would it not bend ? and the rest additional discs be fake?? .. im not saying the guy aint strong he looks very strong but compare to somebody like brain shaw hes tiny…. i dont know ill let somebody else answer that you kind of got me on that one..
Chris Gee is done son! Lol
Dangleberry talks some amount of ass , he’s not Even that big compared to like pro powerlifters and bodybuilders, even they can’t lift some of that shit, not only does he lift fake weights I bet his hat is fake anol Calum Ferrie
My favorite part is when he said “ask the crowd”. There was no crowd it was like four people Lol!!!!!
And the fact that the “crowd” can’t tell anything about how much he actually lifts
Who else thinks amazing stuff is cool
KENNY KO looks like you got PUNK!!! If you can lift fake weights and make the MONEY he is making you would do it!!
HATERS!!!
That sentence structure was awful ?
Spoken like a true non lifter.
CLOWN ?
We get the message jerry ?. Your a fan of Fakeberry, got anything else or just stupid random words put together?
Trust me not a fan!!! Just think it’s funny haters who hate on people doing better
I get where your coming from but making money off fake weight videos? Gives the bodybuilding a bad rep especially if hes getting paid for it. Before you know it he’ll spark a trend of fake weight vids
“Just think it’s funny haters who hate on people doing better”
^ they aren’t hating on him because he’s doing better. They aren’t scrutinising his income or how he looks. They are criticising him specifically for lifting fake weights. Lifting fake weights is not “doing better” unless you want to claim that he’s better at lifting fake weights.
You’re a fucking moron lol
He acts like the drunk annoying guy at a party… but all the time
ya can tell the gyus a total dick all the time , it would do ur fucking head in been around him all the time , bet he does his managers head in
Tj Carson
Yeah fakeweight baby
Thomas Erland han får kjørt sæ i det siste.
https://www.facebook.com/nis.wimalasena/posts/1577963595589943
That was cringe worthy
Fake bitch.
He should be banned from everything this sport means.
Matt Chisholm
Cooked as lol
I love how majority guys that call him out don’t look half as good as he does! If he adds a couple fake weights to his shit so what. #mindyourbusiness
Nikhil Chand
https://generationiron.com/watch-looks-like-fake-weights-making-comeback/

Brad is way to small to bench near 600lb much less 675 lol what a joke
Boom mega douche ⚰️
Chris Parry does…some times lol
Daniel Williams
Haha just watched it before u tagged me in it.. i lift at multi million dollar gym, do u think they will have fake weights… cant stand this cunt.. just prove it and thats it
Yup if you lift heavy shit well prove to every one you can what he scared off ?
Plus him saying look at me who looks like they lift doesnt prove a thing dont have to lift heavy to look like he does let alone has he strong men they dont look like that douche and would lift more then this peanut
Walked off like a beta took a hit of pre-workout snorted up his nose came back Alpha!

Fuckin Asshole
Nick Salta
Tom Golding Matthew Sexton Andrew Wolf
I’ll pay someone $100 to please KO this guy next time you’re at his booth it amazes me how he even has his own booth? Why do people want to follow this guy, he’s clearly not all there in the head
Brad Castleberry ” Dingleberry” is a BITCH*
If the weights weren’t fake, the bar would be bending more on the shrugged an incline press , thats a fact… Comment , talk shit , or whatever , but watch the video… No way the bar is bending that little with 7-8 plates on each side
Christopher Nguyen
Holy shit I can’t stand listening to him when he talks. He sounds like a fucking gorilla. He’s literally a dumbass. Wtf does not knowing the one dude’s kids have to do with the fake weights he’s lifting? ?
Jason Mayne not sure if he could be any more of douche
so bad haha
Kenny sucks, i think is good idea start to lift some fake weights Mr. Kenny
Mr. Dick himself 😀
Lol. Dude has been called out so many times and he has to be tired of it… If dude is really hitting those weights he should prove it and respond to a call out.
Jason Davis Adam Davis
Grant Reynolds
Who is either guy in the video. Never heard of them?
‘Fake weights’ are chinchy for sure…but honestly, in an industry where almost everyone pretends that bodybuilders are natural when it’s obvious that they juice, doesn’t ‘fake weights’ fit the scheme of things? You can’t pick the lies that are ok!
How are steroids a lie though?? Anyone who knows anything about the fitness industry knows almost everyone is on something. It’s the fact these drugs are illegal that make people in the industry claim natty.
Where as fake weights require no effort or actual work to lift. You just load the bar and suddenly you can bench 600 lbs for reps. That’s not how steroids even remotely work….
With steroids you still actually have to put in the work you don’t just sit on your ass and magically get gains
The issue comes when these bodybuilders on gear sell or are sponsored by supplement companies. A narrative is pushed that they used those supplements to get in the shape they are in, but they don’t mention the rest of what they take. It’s very insincere and is a plague on the industry. People are selling workouts, nutrition plans, and supplements to “look like me” but you never, ever could without the gear they are on. In fitness, being jacked gives instant credibility to whatever you’re saying or selling.
Marty Nemec nails it!
I don’t care about your supplements! Show me to your test provider!
Steroids are not the lie…
its’s ppl using them and saying they dont. I tell on the goal of competing just once in my life. There were zillions of women sounding like transvestites and looking like cats saying they are natural.if you make a comment in this site about an obviously user who claims to be natural,that user’s fan base will argue that he’s natural. The bodybuilder that just dies Rich P use to talk about his full hairline as proof thst he knew how to use…he had hair implants …The industry accepts lies…that means all lies are welcome
Well wtf ever he’s been lifting something
Love him or hate em he has almost 1million followers on Instagram and probably inspired thousands of people to train and push themselves harder. If he is lifting fake weights I guess one day it will be revealed
Hasn’t it been revealed time and time again
???? what a childish comment. He has 1 million followers! Seriously?? You think that means something that ppl follow him on IG as if that’s a life goal. Grow up.
Jeff have a great day and keep making those gains guy. God Bless
Did this basketcase said he got almost 1million followers on IG ??????? who cares iG don’t make you famous smh. What i looked at was at his booth he only had maybe 7 people there and none looked like they lift.
Relax guys, keep your heads screwed on right.. whoa, I would hate to see you guys react under a serious circumstance by the way your reacting from an opinion
Fake inspiration
Any body that buys his shit is a tool, just like him.
Why do all these people sweat this dude? Just saw the gay ass queer cartel with fat boy sweat him too. I don’t like him either or watch his videos but hes just trying to hustle for his like everyone else. Worry about yourself for a while and stop causing unnecessary drama like broads
Karlee Larson Lemon, look I’m in this video at 5:13
Dusty Manzanares, this is the video I was trying to show you. You can see me at the end videoing it.
Lol “he broke under pressure boys”
Orrin Lemon he wasn’t acting that way when the strength cartel asked him about it
Just happened to scroll past my news feed and see you commented it. What did you ask him?
I asked him what world records he has broken today. He told me “most flexes in a day!”, And did a most muscular, ha ha. Everyone filed off after this video, I stayed and talked with him for a while. Hes a douche but I’m convinced it’s mostly an act for business.
I saw you!!
Andrew Lisa Becker
Is the dude huge, absolutely.
But he acts like the stereotypical tool everyone hates at the gym. Hence why most people dislike him so much
“Ask the crowd”.. four people at his booth
Blake Clubber-Lang I laughed so hard at That! Guy on this thread said it best. He left a beta, snorted “preeorkout” and came back alpha lol
Fake weights or not…. the guy has a decent amount of muscle… so he puts the work in somewhere!
Melissa Nero
What a tool!!
I have never seen a lifter who claims to lift so much do all that he can to avoid a competition where he could prove he was the best…
Drew Narrin
FAKE WEIGHTS! If he wasn’t lifting fake weights he would prove every one who accused him of it wrong and take their challenges! He never does! He always has an excuse! He is as fake as the weights he lifts. Or should I say tries to lift! Lol what a joke.
He needs to lift official because his body is too small for what he says he lifts
Ricky Espinosa Tommy Belgeri Marcus Ratbag Seidel. Beats around the bush the whole time
What a clown, didn’t see him act like that with the Hawaiians lol
Absolute clown
put a shirt on
Tyler Manley
who the fuck is the guywith no bra? sounds and looks like proper douche….
Jay Dosanjh ur boy keeps getting called out
He’s an idiot!
Hillary Koch
How’d he get that big with fake weights though?
The dousche has spoken. I agree about the haters, they’re everywhere. But even Ronnie Coleman, twice his size and one of the strongest bodybuilders of all time couldn’t pull some of his lifts. The fake weights aren’t featherlight, the 45 lb plates are just 25lbs. So his 765 squat is actually 425. Which is still a heavy squat for reps.
Yeah he mixes them up no question but the point is that he lies about it like people aren’t already onto him lol
Tommy Nowlan Drew David Sirek Gilberto Chepe Ramirez Tyson Hop what a DOOOOOOOOCHE
Lmao yeah notice he didn’t say the weights were fake at 1st. He pretty much admits hes doing it to boost up people and help them but lifting fake weights doesn’t do that….lol
His bitch ass got called out by everyone
The fake weights isn’t what gets me, that’s obvious. But the way he acts and everything is just flat out annoying AF. How does this dude have a supplement company?
I’M a broke sob with more experience, know how and I’ll stick to the grind of life rather than be this duesche nugget
Lifting fake weights is a lot like lip syncing. That’s why people don’t like him. Because it’s not real. Get it?
Franco Solari fake weightssssss
Jon Flight
Nick Shorthouse
Anderson Hee Kenny KC Yeo Matthew Swea John Chong
How does this guy brings the fake weights into gym ?
He’s only 5’2″! Fake weights!
Dude is overcompensating! Check his body language. Uncomfortable and nervous AF!
That was a definite “yes” they are fake lmao wow!
Yes he has a decent amount of muscle… yes he’s popular, even if its negative attention… yes he has over a million followers. But if this guy would just prove ONE lift just to say he’s legit, it would shut everyone up, and shoot him up to stardom. He would be the real deal. His cockiness would then be seen as confidence. It would change a lot of haters. But bottom line, he won’t do it. You be the judge.
He won’t do it because he would lose MILLIONS!!!
You can tell that since he didn’t answer the question straight up or prove it with a lift that he does lift fake weights….other than the fact that he actually lifts fake weights
Maikel Hartman die Brad wat een pauper! Anti reclame !
Emmanuel Figueroa Flores
Jack Lipski
Natty vs. juicy
Tolifili Andre Liufau Brad doesn’t lift fake weights.
he’s a beast
My thing about the Strength Cartel rolling up on him is this, the one dude in the group use to be a spotter for Castleberry. I think there was a falling out between the two and now this dude is trying to expose him. I personally think that Castleberry uses real weight, I just think his spotter helps quite tremendously.
Trevan Martinez dont have service , what happened?! Lol
He told him to do one rep and he didn’t want to lol. Then castlberry asked the crowd who looked more like they use fake weights him or the youtuber lol
Basically castlberry got called out and didn’t want to man up
Brad does have a point!
Why would be just do one rep for the guy? He said any workout you want just do one rep of your choice
Yeah but whose body looks like they’re using fake weights?
Yea he burned him bad lol

Haha jaa, han gör bort sig så hårt
No shit if those videos were real he would literally be the strongest man in the world anyone who needs to ask this question is a moron
Not a single FCUK was given to what he lifts
Fake weights and fake man
Stephen Romero
Vishal Goundar
Haha yeah was watching this on YouTube shame hahah
I saw this dud couple times at show expo and he is big
I dont think he build that body lifting fake wights
He lifts real weights for the purposes of bodybuilding. But he also claims to lift like world record powerlifting amounts of weight for things like bench press. He uses fake weights for those videos. It doesn’t mean he lifts zero weight all the time eg when he’s doing curls or lat pull downs
Ryan Lagasse
fake weights or not dude is still jacked
You people are idiots fake weights wont get you looking like him, steroids without hard work and dedication wont make you look like him…gyms as big as the one he lifts in dont have fake weights, would never allow that in the gym, fake weights dont bend bars, honestly i find it hilarious that half the people talking shit look like shit
I seen him right next to me pumpin the 80 lbs dumbells for like 15 reps, and I had just shoulder pressed those and they weren’t fake lol
Dick size anyone? C’mon!!!
Never mind the fake weights, this guys a total speed demon. Rocket
Pft… He looks and sounds like an idiot but dude punked out. Let that guy pull you around and act like that… Should have told him to get his hands off ya. When he was talking shit ya should have told him that it matters because he is selling shit and lying to sell it is bullshit… But instead ya just smiled and took a pic with the midget. Smh
Funny thing is, everyone challenging him looks like shit standing next to him. just saying
fake weights it is
