JAMES HARRISON WORKS OUT IN A SWEATSUIT BECAUSE HIS ARMS ARE SO DAMN BIG

GET BIG!

James Harrison has been one of the most fearsome players in the NFL since he emerged with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2007. He’s one of the strongest players in the league, whether it’s his powerful hips, or his powerful arms and shoulders.

While he’s showing you how strong he is, he also tells us why he wears a sweatsuit when he works out, while he’s working out.

“The whole reason I wear a sweatsuit to workout is so they can’t see my arms,” Harrison exclaimed. “I don’t want to discourage people who come in here to work out, just because my arms are so damn big!”

“That’s why I wear a sweatsuit.”

To be fair, his arms really are huge:

When James goes even heavier, he gets the old-man strength (the best kind of strength) involved and lets Mike Tomlin spot him.

Thanks for the explanation, James. And impressive lift!
