Andy Bolton's new world deadlift record of 457.5kg/1008.6 lbs

Serious question. I want you to look deep inside of yourself. Do you have self-esteem problems?

Yes, it's obvious he does, he's probably a skinny zit-faced geek that has to try to bring others who are bigger and stronger than him down.

Was it an Oakie type of bar? One which flexes more?
Hard to say what effect it has, but I know a guy who used an OL bar (which flexes more) instead of a regular Eleiko PL bar during an exhibition lift - clearly made him able to pull 30-40 lbs above his previous best.

I think the thickness of these Oakie bars are like the OL bars as well.
So if Bolton did it with a wonky bar it ain't the same.

How does his arms stay attached to the body? To be that fat and strong is probably harder than dieting for a BB show.

That is a ridiculous statement.  The man deadlifted 1008 pounds, and you are saying that because it was done on an oakie bar it isn't the same??  The only fed that doesnt use a special bar for deadlifting is the IPF.  Even the USPF uses an oakie bar in their meets.  I train with a regular texas power bar in the gym, and when I go to a meet and pull on an oakie bar the difference isnt shit.  In fact, I prefer the stiffer bar to deadlift with and I am not alone with that.

i'm on cutting cycle, it's 1000 time easier than my powerlifting cycle of last winter.

not eating crap is easier than squatting or deadlifting very heavy.

OMG comparing Magnusson to Andy Bolton is like comparing QueerFarts to Ronnie Coleman.

He didnt lock out.

Benedikt Magnusson does it better

Fuck right off, he even rocked back some to prove the point.
What you "DL'ing" right now BIG-LAD ??

[pillowtalk]

calm down matt.

i feel your pain, being forced to use proxy servers to attack getbiggers, but there is no need.

i used to engage people like you in the past but now i'm content in the knowledge you would never ever ever in a million years speak to me like that in person.

you are clearly a racist coward, and your shame known no bounds.

take care
