Then don't rip on others if you can't back up what you say.  At least he posts pics of himself.

depends on the contest, if they were doing more of a sheer strength show like in the IFSA Savickas would kill him but WSM is a different story, too many little bullshit running with small weight events there that have nothing to do with strength.

I guess he gets in better shape for the big shows like tha Arnold. Lot's of american cash on the line.

Pudz is a great athlete but as far as pure strength is nowhere close to Savickas or Ross either...WSM is a made for tv even with relatively light weights being carried or moved with few pure strength events.  Arnold strongman is better indicator of pure strength which is why guys like Savickas generally win while Pudz doesn't fair so well

Why? Because of the one hand dumbbell lift? How has he score on WSM competitions? Not at all?

He is lifting 172lb in that picture, putting all his strength and technique in it and this is amazing for you? I have seen with my own eyes how BB:er do barbell presses behind the neck with 451lb(205kg) while sitting down, so he is in fact using only his strength of the shoulder muscles and hands to do that. He did four reps without any help, so try to figure which one is bigger feat of strength to accomplish? You should understand that strong man competitions are entertainment and things which you see, has been modified to give the best show possible for spectators. If they would use only a olympic barbells and regular dumbbells, it would be like any other weight lifting competition. That's why they lift all those stupid things, like stupid dumbbells which has too thick grip. It cannot be too easy, or you don't get any spectators. That is also the reason why WSM competition are what they are: they measure lifters overall capacity, strength, speed and nerves, and that is only way to do it right. You cannot be a strongest, if you have only one good lift to show.

Glenn Ross: “Savickas is the Strongest Man on the Planet” by Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. | ©2007 IronMind
 
“My concept of ultimate strength is like old-time circus-type strongman,” Glenn “The Daddy” Ross told IronMind, and he wants, “tests people can relate to. Let’s get back to stones, logs, carrying cars.”

 Glenn Ross distinguishes between his vision of strongman and what he calls strength athletics; Ross wants to emphasize “power and power movements .. . it’s the distance carried, rather than the time,” he said.

Despite his clear preferences, Glenn Ross very much champions a free market in the strongman world, saying that, “It’s like a supermarket, and choices are good for the sport.”

“The skinny, faster guys” can go to the strength athletics end and “the bigger, powerlifting guys” can gravitate to his contests, Ross said.

Quick to praise Zydrunas Savickas as “strongest man on the planet,” Glenn Ross said that he wishes Savickas were free to compete wherever he would like. Referring to IFSA’s limitations on where its athletes can compete, Ross said, “They are doing to Savickas what was done to Ali,” referring to Muhammad Ali missing what would have been his best years when he was suspended from boxing.

“The sport isn’t big enough for that,” Ross said.

And talking power, just how is Glenn Ross doing these days? Very well, thank you.

”I’m going for 8 reps with 230 kg in the bench tonight,” said Ross, whose motto is, “Raw or not at all.” Glenn has also recently done a 185-kg log for two reps, and pressed his replica Thomas Inch dumbbell for 11 reps.

And talking raw power, Glenn said that he’s “almost there” in terms of hitting an 1100-kg total in powerlifting, with only a belt and knee wraps, adding that he is still working on where to stage his assault on a 400-kg squat, 420-kg deadlift and a 280-kg bench press.

Glenn Ross apparently is not the only person with this vision of how strongman contests should be designed and run, as he told IronMind, “This year’s UK Strongest Man will be aired on Sky Sports . . . a deal . . . that will take the sport of Ultimate Strongman to a new level.”

”The UK Strongest Man is now going into its fourth year,” said Ross, tracing its expansion year by year. “The UK Strongest Man has now grown to 5 x 1 hour programs scheduled for SKY, with several repeats of each show scheduled for this coming Christmas.”

Glenn Ross: “Savickas is the Strongest Man on the Planet” by Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. | ©2007 IronMind
 
“My concept of ultimate strength is like old-time circus-type strongman,” Glenn “The Daddy” Ross told IronMind, and he wants, “tests people can relate to. Let’s get back to stones, logs, carrying cars.”

 Glenn Ross distinguishes between his vision of strongman and what he calls strength athletics; Ross wants to emphasize “power and power movements .. . it’s the distance carried, rather than the time,” he said.

Despite his clear preferences, Glenn Ross very much champions a free market in the strongman world, saying that, “It’s like a supermarket, and choices are good for the sport.”

“The skinny, faster guys” can go to the strength athletics end and “the bigger, powerlifting guys” can gravitate to his contests, Ross said.

Quick to praise Zydrunas Savickas as “strongest man on the planet,” Glenn Ross said that he wishes Savickas were free to compete wherever he would like. Referring to IFSA’s limitations on where its athletes can compete, Ross said, “They are doing to Savickas what was done to Ali,” referring to Muhammad Ali missing what would have been his best years when he was suspended from boxing.

“The sport isn’t big enough for that,” Ross said.

And talking power, just how is Glenn Ross doing these days? Very well, thank you.

”I’m going for 8 reps with 230 kg in the bench tonight,” said Ross, whose motto is, “Raw or not at all.” Glenn has also recently done a 185-kg log for two reps, and pressed his replica Thomas Inch dumbbell for 11 reps.

And talking raw power, Glenn said that he’s “almost there” in terms of hitting an 1100-kg total in powerlifting, with only a belt and knee wraps, adding that he is still working on where to stage his assault on a 400-kg squat, 420-kg deadlift and a 280-kg bench press.

sounds like Glenn has the right ideas all around. sounds like a good dude. all raw lifting, credit to Savikas, etc..

Why? Because of the one hand dumbbell lift? How has he score on WSM competitions? Not at all?

He is lifting 172lb in that picture, putting all his strength and technique in it and this is amazing for you? I have seen with my own eyes how BB:er do barbell presses behind the neck with 451lb(205kg) while sitting down, so he is in fact using only his strength of the shoulder muscles and hands to do that. He did four reps without any help, so try to figure which one is bigger feat of strength to accomplish? You should understand that strong man competitions are entertainment and things which you see, has been modified to give the best show possible for spectators. If they would use only a olympic barbells and regular dumbbells, it would be like any other weight lifting competition. That's why they lift all those stupid things, like stupid dumbbells which has too thick grip. It cannot be too easy, or you don't get any spectators. That is also the reason why WSM competition are what they are: they measure lifters overall capacity, strength, speed and nerves, and that is only way to do it right. You cannot be a strongest, if you have only one good lift to show.
he has more than one good lift.....

Former Finnish BB:er Jari Leino pull that rabbit from his hat in front of the audience, so there was more witnesses than just me. One of them was Kaarlo Kangasniemi, Olympic gold medalist in weight lifting, and he told Leino that if he wants, he could be a world record lifter in no time. Year was something like 87-89, he was just about a third finn who got a pro card, was 6'th at the finnish gp in one of those years. Use to do strongman contests and power lifting, and he has bunch of medals in all those three sports. Has dead lifted 425 kg in some exhibition and 542,5 in some strong man event. Furthermore, he has done 8 reps with 180 kilos doing standing behind the neck presses ON VIDEO. In that same video he does 18 reps of flat bench with 220kg. Got bad injury in his second pro year and quit lifting. These days he is a farmer. He was one of the strongest man which I have ever seen, and I have met bunch of WSM competitors.

Where were you at that time? Pissing in your diapers in some kindergarten? So, you stupid child, if you really are in this sport, you should get your act together and do some lifting instead of wanking around here all the time. These threads of yours are so lame, who got the biggest bicep, deltoids, forearm, asshole etc. but it seem to me that those pictures really turn you on...I bet that your "better" hand has grown at least one inch bigger just because you masturbate so much. Go and measure it, and when you see that I am right, shame, you stupid. It is obvious that every one who look at you knows immediately what is cause of that lack of symmetry, so now you know why they smile at you...

You should call Golds Gym in Honolulu and ask to talk to any of the guys who train in the back.  Ask them if Joe Onasi did a 500 BNP on live TV on the news for a few reps with no spotter.  Or maybe call I think it was Channel 4 news or KHNL maybe and get the tape.  If you ever see David or Peter Paul you can ask them if they ever did a 405 BNP with a guy named Keith Jones at The Gym in Honolulu.  Only a for a couple but we did them with no spot.  I HATE spotters near me.  315 was to easy so we tried it and it was damm heavy.  And they were true BNP not in front at all.  I know I could have done front one easy.  As late as last summer I was doing full reps in the front with 315 easy.  And I am pretty sure if I could do it and Joe and others that there are many others out there that can do it.  Just because it is heavy to you and you have never seen someone do it, don't say it can't be done.  Makes you look like you don't train or know anything.  One thing I have learned and experienced is that most things can be done.

205kg/451lb isn't so much. You could know it if you had lifted anything but your cholesterol, you stupid child. I got owned once by the guy, who come to me when I was squatting, and ask if he could use the barbell while I was resting. I say yes, of course, and that motherfuc*ker start to do presses with the weight I was using to squat, something like 150kg/330lb. It was my first year of training, and he win our national BB:ing contest in that same year, so I didn't feel so stupid after that. Anyway, it is just same to me what some fat brat believes or not, so why don't you go and get some pump in that "better" hand; maybe all that wanking make you burn some calories, and you will be able to carry your fat ass to the gym.

You have probably see all there is in the net, because he was in his peak long before WWW and youtube. In finland there is so few hardcore fans for this guys, that there isn't no one to scan old articles or photographs in the net. That is kind of pity, because there is many colorful stories about these guys, but it would be pain in the ass to translate them to english.

What comes to Riku, when he was training in Gold's Gym/Helsinki, he was a real teddy bear. He hardly spoke with anybody and when he did, he was very polite and friendly. He is quite shy person, and very modest. Big fuc*king gorilla, I am 180cm tall and those days my weight was 110kg, but I look like his little son when I was standing next to him. When he was loading a leg press with 50 kg plates, he carry them one in both hands and lift them on the machine like rice cakes. He is one of those few guys who I have seen doing leg presses with metric ton using good ROM. Nice guy all together, now days he is a doorman in some restaurant somewhere in finland.
