The Kali Muscle Story


Happier than a BodyBuilder Directing Traffic” is a Geico commercial we all know and love. That bodybuilder goes by Kali Muscle and he has an incredible backstory with a troubled past Kali is spreading across the internet after his short documentary surfaced on the Strength Project.

Kali has a dynamic workout routine that has been developed through years of unique and non-conventional training methods due to the lack of weight lifting equipment in the California prison system. While Kali was in prison, he anticipated the weights being taken out and formulated his own workout routine. Pictured below, using just a plastic bag or towel and a partner, you can still achieve a solid workout with no weights needed. Kali’s website is in it’s beginning stages but will be featuring many Prison Exercises he developed.
He also features these Prison Exercises on his YouTube channel. In the video above, he explains why bar workouts became an important component of prison workouts once the weights were removed from the California prison system. The inmates worked out for not only strength, but because their body had to be a weapon. If there was a prison riot or a conflict with another inmate, you had to be able to defend yourself.

Kali Muscle was born and raised in Oakland, California. He received a football scholarship to Fresno State as a running back. Kali decided he had to relocate to Los Angeles in 2010 in order to become successful in acting and bodybuilding.

  11. Hey my boyfriend derives his inspiration from Kali muscle and he really wants to look like him. He's into bodybuilding and workouts and he's trying to tone up his body before Christmas. I was looking for some appropriate diet for muscle gain and I came across your blog. Thanks for helping out.

  12. Kali has motivated me to change my workout routine. 2 weeks ago I was listening to his "Motivation Music - Get Big" and realized I have been bullshytin with my reps. Now I do not leave the gym with less than 300 reps. My chest workout is 50 reps (110lbs) on Flat Bench, 50 reps Incline Bench, DumbBell Press 40reps 50lb, 40 reps 55lb, 30 reps 60lb. Decline DumbBell Press 40reps 50lb, 40 reps 55lb, 30 reps 60lb. End with reverse behind the head military press 150 reps (20lbs, 30lb, 40lbs, 50lbs and 60lbs 30reps each). I have been doing this for the past two weeks. I will move up in weight June 1, 2016. Kali song "Prove them Wrong, also Money and the Muscle" can really get you going, when your in the zone. I bought them on Amazon and downloaded them on my phone. Thanks Kali
