Post by: funk51 on January 25, 2011, 09:13:04 AM
i was looking through an old mag S&H and saw a pic of old karl norberg doing a front barbell hold with a 100 lb barbell ,karl was said to be 74 years old at the time. it said no one ever did one of these holds with a olympic bar and two 45 lb plates or 135lbs. lets see one of youse guys do this and post a pic than i'll be impressed. more so than your usual witty rheteroic impresses me.

pic is above of norberg guy was a real freak of nature, he almost outlifted john grimek in an exhibition and norberg had never seen a barbell to that point in his life. see grimek article on the strongest man he ever knew.
