Why we doing top 3? Too many to count. Off the top of my head:

Deadlift pointers from Belkin and Woolam
Bench pointers from Sarychev
Squat pointers from Malanichev
LarryWheels and crew

Also, some pro athletes I have trained with:

Brian Grant
Osafa Powell
Jacoby Ellsbury
Pablo Sandoval

And a few more I won’t mention for anonymity. It helps growing up next to Nike headquarters and being a fairly good athlete.

  1. Prime Mike Tyson
  2. Prime Muhammad Ali
  3. Don Rickles goading them into fighting each other

EDIT: I’d also settle on a best out of 3 match between Lyle Alzado and Dave Williams. 1 match on the ice, 1 match on the turf, and then a wildcard where they’re both in a burlap sack filled with angry wasps.

I’m a former soccer player, and a lover of the game, so would say my #1 is Pelé. Very impressed with what he accomplished, what he’s done since, and a fan of his personality.

Second and third place would be Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence. Their martial arts skills are very impressive to me.

I’d pick an endurance athlete to feel like a badass. Where’s your EPO to help you now Lance Armstrong?

Dominique Moceanu in her prime (she doesn’t know it, but we fell in love during the 96 Olympics).
Rich Froning (flame away).
It pains me to say it, but James Harrison…

I never saw/heard anything about his training but I could never come to a conclusion on whether he was the kind of guy who was insane off the court or did fuck all. It’s definitely not going to be somewhere inbetween haha

Yeah, I have the usual doubts about CrossFit, and the average gym (box) goer who takes part in it, and I even did CF for two years a little while back. But I would not complain to have Froning’s strength, skills, or even physique.
