He starts by talking about none other than Branch Warren. “As long as I’ve known him. We’ve been eleven years together,” Farah said and continued, “Never, ever, ever. do you understand what I’m saying? He’s walking around 300 pounds shredded.” Branch Warren is a retired IFBB professional bodybuilder who has won the Arnold Classic title twice. Farah has trained him for a long time and knows the bodybuilder well.
