he might not have done crossfit, but he did compete as a powerlifter for years. granted, thats not the same as 10 months of general exercise.
btw, saying he couldnt keep up with you in the gym and admitting his squat and deadlift are significantly better than yours, is not a great lead in to say "i could do twice as much work"...
