YouTuber Jesse James West Wins Bodybuilding Show Competing Naturally
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.
