...Wow.

 Do you think an "athlete" Bob Chick would do
 - 135kg jerk from behind the neck
 - 200kg deadlift x 3 reps.
 - 145kg no-hands squat
 the half of what Misha can do?

[James Blunt]

i thought you meant "athlete".................not powerlifter


aa far as true athletes go.............vernon davis is pretty impressive

if you were able to sit with god and design the most physically perfect tight end..........it would probably be him


he went to UMD when i was there, his lifts were ungodly for a ball player..........i think he did 225 fifty something times

you didnt say "white" athlete

speed and strength, great athlete at his size - larry allen would have dominated 'strength sports' if he chose to pursue that instead of a nulti-millon dollar NFL career

same could most likely be said about any of the best linemen in the NFL

 I'm not impressed no speed, no strength. What are his pb's at 60 and 100 m fat? Kokliaev at least got strength!

You have to translate kg to lbs so they can understand anything at all :

270kg is 595lbs - jerk from back:

400kg is 882lbs - deadlift:

290 is 639lbs - squat with no hand support

190kg is 419lbs - snatch:

All of it lifted in one seminar + warmups. No one comes close to this man.

You must be new here.  We have several stronger here.

Goodrum (he has all the certifications to prove it)
McAnusLicker (will pst a video of others doing what he says he can do)

[woodman]

misha is the man!!bar none one fun dude!look up some of his youtube highlights(Ie: wob@19 feet..even though it weighed in light + his  accordian skills)

[BB]

While there have been written reports of heavier, that is the heaviest behind the neck jerk I've seen filmed. It also makes me happy that he seems like a nice person in real life, It's nice to see a few folks in the strength world with charisma and playfulness, instead of a bunch of sullen angry guys.

[Mr Nobody]

BDB hands down.  word is doood can bicep curl 30lbs. dumbells like it's going out of style.
