Your average Getbigger uses those for warm up.

That pic looks like an Inch Dumbbell (w/smaller handle) and those are ~172lbs. Any pics of the 300lb db used?

What made guys like Cyr, Goering, and Sandow so special is they did these amazing lifts before the drug era and used no supportive gear

This was a great month for strength stuff-

From Z's Axle presses-

.

To a 750lb Front Squat-

.

To finally, Poundstone's and others circus dumbell lift. I personally consider Poundstone's lifts better because:

a) Verifiable weights. Anderson's bell was a hodgepodge of different weights, looking at it you really can't say how much is on there.

b) 3 inch diameter of the circus bell. If you've ever played with thick grip stuff, after about 2" or so, it really tears at the thumb. Andersoms was nowhere near that thick.

c) While both use some leg drive, Poundstone stays more upright. Anderson's lift was more of a "side-press" . The range is better on Poundstone's lift.

Here's Anderson's lift:

Your average Getbigger uses those for warm up.

For rotator cuff.
