In the world of fitness and bodybuilding, people often delve into different kinds of regimens to become fit and strong. But Maharaj Fitness is the Indian gym enthusiast who’s taking the lifting community by storm with his unique twist on preacher curls. While most of us are familiar with the classic seated or standing versions of this bicep-building exercise, Maharaj has brought a whole new level of creativity to the table.

In a viral video shared by Generation Iron, Maharaj can be seen performing preacher curls in a way that’s turning heads and raising eyebrows. Instead of the typical setup, he’s standing on the row of a Smith machine, adding an extra challenge to an already demanding exercise.

The unconventional mode of exercise!

What makes Maharaj’s curls stand out isn’t just the unconventional approach, but the sheer dedication and skill he demonstrates while executing them. As a Western powerlifting gold medalist and the proud winner of the first prize at the West Zone National Raw Bench Press and Deadlift Championship, Maharaj is no stranger to pushing his limits and achieving greatness in the world of fitness.

Generation Iron couldn’t help but marvel at Maharaj’s technique, prompting them to ask their audience: “Have you ever seen curls like these??” Indeed, it’s hard to ignore the impressive display of strength and precision that Maharaj brings to his workouts.

Maharaj’s Instagram grid, it’s clear that lifting isn’t just a hobby for him—it’s a passion and a way of life. His feed is filled with videos showcasing his lifting prowess, interspersed with snapshots of his well-deserved gold medals and accolades. In one of his videos, he did something nobody would expect: while performing barbell squats, he had a man sitting on him. But that’s not all; he was doing the exercise on a footstool. Despite going beyond the conventional way and pushing the limits, fans’ reaction to his exercise video is nothing but humorous.

Maharaj’s unique workout routine caught everyone off guard and a few of them encouraged the man by using Ronnie Coleman’s catchphrase, saying, “Yeh, buddy! Lightweight!” Fitness enthusiasts referred to his moves as “Level 4 preacher curl” showcasing the uniqueness and the difficulty level of the preacher curl exercise.
