Los Angeles Lakers legend Shaquille O’Neal was the most dominant big man during his prime in the NBA. The towering center could make anyone look smaller by his side. Unlike most humans, Shaq doesn’t lift weights when he works out because he uses whoever is near him as weights.
Recently, a hilarious video of O’Neal curling up NBA legend Reggie Miller in his arms went viral. A lot of fans thought it was hilarious. In his newest podcast titled “The Big Wardrobe Malfunction”, Shaq disclosed the history behind the Reggie bicep curl, among other things.
The Big Diesel also revealed that Charles Barkley was also in the gym with them. But he called out Chuck for faking the workout.
