Why do you have so many accounts and why are you always bumping old threads?

Well, I hit a set of 31 (my all-time best) without drugs, so to imagine Platz could at one time nail 50 isn't too impossible. Not that the feat isn't amazing, because it most definitely is.

Here I am doing 25 after a monster bench-press session preceded by a six-hour car ride:


Great squat video w/ Dr. Lowrey spotting. Episode 500 is coming up quick Rob (Iron Radio) would be great to have you on that episode.

Actually overall Dallas Mccarver might have been the strongest from the lifts I've seen. But ofc Ronnie Coleman seems like the standard everyone compares themselves to so he must have been the best.

Thanks. We’ll see.

Good going in that video - well done.
What was your body weight
And No PEDs ?

My best for reps at a body weight of around 95k
Was 19 x 195k
Damn if only I could still do close to that.  :'(

I know there's a video somewhere of Lonnie squatting w/ 405 I think, and Fortress screaming encouragement at him (F' Bombs).
The show is still great, but really lost something when Fortress left.

New podcast would be epic "SAASSM-Cast". Strength athletes against shit skin muzzies". Pilot episode, "Bath-house Barry Obama and Michella Gorilla".
(Sorry, just bored and entertaining myself).   ::)

You’re very kind. Thanks again.

Lonnie and I are still tight. Brothers. He’s a remarkable person.

Seriously, why is this guy still allowed to post here? He's already broken 3 cardinal rules of the board when he:

1) Made a "rest in peace" thread for himself under the impersonation of his fictitious mother to fish for attention.
2) He's clearly behind at least 4 gimmicks that post regularly with unknown numbers in reserve.
3) He's going around bumping threads from the distant past, which is weird as hell considering how much scrolling you have to do for that and also kicks recent threads off the main page, which is why it's not allowed.

I won't even start with the fact that he threatened to kill his ex and make her life a living hell as he did so.

Who do you think makes up the top 5?

Not necessarily in this order, but here are 4:

Ronnie Coleman
Marko Savolainen
Eddie Moyzan
Eddie Robinson

Still trying to come up with # 5





Did any of these guys compete?...Just askin, because anecdotal gym lifts don't mean much...
Franco Columbo competed in actual competitions and had the World record in the deadlift at 740 in the 181's...
Back in the old days the bodybuilders would compete in a powerlifting meet and afterwards meet for the bodybuilding show. Muscles need to be functional...

Marvin Eder and Franco Columbu.  Pound for pound, both were stronger than the bloated whale carcass that is Coleman or for that matter, many others listed here.

Lee Priest for benching.  He says he did 525 for six, and if he said it, it *must* be true!

 ::)  Word of advice to all:  anytime someone claims something and adds, "Why would I lie about that?", he's just backed the bullshit dump truck up to your front lawn.
