*low grumble* How to strong like apes

I've been doing some basic workouts and I started to wonder about a goal that i want to achieve, like the level of strength I'd like to work towards.
then i started to look at my interest in apes as an examples, for more than exercise even!
and i have to say that I've taken an interest in following the humble gorilla.

so I'm trying to get gorilla as much as i can but for now but all I'm mostly doing is endurance training so i wanted to get the opinions of other apes here to help me become as close to a silverback as humanly possible (both in strength and father figure).
i know about gorilla crawl but i get the feeling that i should do more weightlifting and maybe something to strengthen my forearms.

while i was thinking of this post i also thought it would be a good place to discuss workout plans based on other apes as well in case other people thought of the same thing but with other apes. to my knowledge, i haven't seen posts with similar questions.
anyway that's all, what do you guys think? any advice will definitely appreciated!
thank you for your time and have a wonderful day OO O O AH
