Wheels is like, stupid strong.  It's like, WTF.  He's strong like Bill Kazmaier but looks like he weighs 100 lbs. less.  He's a freak of nature.

Yes, push press. Imperssive.
Never seen it done like that. Takes it from the rack and keeps it in the air.
Then goes for it.

Its like starting a deadlift from upright position?

big risk. Being the strongest means taking the most drugs.


Idk how close he is to Mcgarvers cykles but either way more than superhuman hormone levels over long time is never a good thing

Not a military press at all.

A push press.

Amazing though.

The strongest men through history of strenth sports and even todays strongmen are mostly white though.

I suspect it has to do with the ~3% neanderthal gene most whites have. Ie. Heavier bonestructure in some areas. Also why blacks are better at running and being agile. This is only my theory.

I also suspect that the top strongmen all have a higher % of neanderthal genome.

There was MINIMAL leg drive, that was an impressive push press. He had it ready to go up as it was unracked.

guess i was wrong. Saw he did sitting on a bench 405 for reps so likely dont need leg drive to push that weight.

Yeah Batista tried it in his mid-40s and it was a flop. Gassed out every time despite sub-10% body fat and decent agility from years of pro wrestling.

Yeah Pudz was the world's strongest man over and over but couldn't cut it there. Sapp was a joke, Cro Cop sent him packing after one Pride fight.

Big isn't useful in MMA.

I gotcha I thought you were discrediting the press, so like a true schmoe i had to run to Larry's defense.

.

Start around 6:20ish.

Other quality shoulder presses / olympic presses to compare -

.

Wheels wasn't far off, and would be in good standing with those I figure.

Impressive.  Is he capable of actually cleaning the weight and then pressing it or just taking it from the rack.  I notice he doesn't put the weight back on the rack but just drops it like most people  do.  This doesn't mean his strength isn't impressive but I would like to see if he is capable of doing the entire movement.

A strict military press is not what he did.

You just need to understand what a strict military press is and what it is not.

A military press is performed with a barbell only, with the heels together, no lay-back,  and with no leg action or jerking of the weight.

Guy is super strong though.

Just understand what a military press is and is not.
