Oh brother, the next worlds strongest 2,3'' ROM Sumo-lifter....
Sumo deads are cheating. Some of these power lifters are lifting the plates one foot off the ground. That's why I'm a fan of Olympic lifting. Get the bar over head or you don't. No amount of cheat suits or tricks will help you like a super wide grip, crazy arch and an inflated chest while benching. If you can lift lift 315lbs over head from the floor you are strong and powerful as hell.
Oh brother, the next worlds strongest 2,3'' ROM Sumo-lifter.... Pull that weight over this range of motion and I'm impressed...
So you’re impressed by a 700 pound squat by a drug abusing 22 year old but this doesn’t register as an accomplishment worthy of your awe?
880 ass to grass, kid.And the guy this thrad is about doesn't abuse drugs I assume...
Very impressive "Strapped deadlift" also called a "Strongman deadlift" not a true Deadlift.I wonder how much he can do without straps?
#971 at #242, and the rest of his lifts are big too -www.openpowerlifting.org/u/jamalbrowner .
Impressive. Definitely. But the Sumo-craze has completely distorted shit. The extremely limited ROM MUST be acknowledged. An extra foot of range, and without straps, and his pull would be hundreds of pounds less.
As if Olympic lifting wasn't technical as hell. Why do they start Olympic lifting training as small children in many countries? Think. You don't think they try not to "muscle up" lifts and use momentum and "tricks" etc?WTF is "real strength" anyway for you guys?
