Aging powerlifter Rudy Kadlub set new records at the IPL Drug-Tested World’s this past weekend.
These are amazing lifts, and are actually my goal in contest, in the u-80kg category. I feel that all of these are attainable for me drug-free, but I'm amazed this man did this at age 72.
Here is a breakdown of Rudy Kadlub’ lifts:
Squat: 451lb (204.5kg) New World Record
Bench Press: 314lb (142.4kg) New World Record
Deadlift: 512lb (232.1kg) New World Record
Total: 1277lb (579.1kg) New World Record
My only question is: does anyone know the ALL TIME absolute highest total for a lifter over age 70?
There are so many powerlifting organizations, and age and weight categories, and equipped and unequipped, that I find it hard to track down the ultimate totals.

Good question!
The_Coach_! is 5'6.5", I believe.
Something like that.
I am curious how tall he is.
I just came across this bodybuilder, who I believe is 5'2":

all impressive lifts. I'm not going to say anything about the gut because, at 72, no one cares haha

He is in the 100-kg weight class...so that's just over 220-lb.
I wonder how tall he is.
It tells me there's no excuse for me to not hit these lifts.
I'm thinking this:
- 450 squat
- 325 bench
- 500 deadlift
That's 2-lb less than him, and I consider that a good goal for 40 [next month].
I feel like I'm working out hard and consistently. I just don't get how some people are so strong.
But then - aging or not, the guy DOES hold world records. I shouldn't feel so bad.
I can walk into any gym in my city, and be lifting the most weight there, basically 90% of the time. Even for my legs, which are a weak point [squat = 385x2].
Maybe going online, we get an unrealistic outlook of how strong the average person is.
I really don't see myself ever squatting 500, while weighing 175-180.
A friend of mine and former CSM competitor told me that some people squat 17 times a week, at the world level.
Layne Norton said he will squat every day, if he can. And I think he has a 666 squat at 200 [also a record, or was one].
Is it ok to train squats often, as long as the rep range is low?

If you keep reps and % of max low (60-70%) you can squat everyday.

Matt,
Do you want to be big, or just strong for a one rep max on various lifts? They require different strategies. Look at Larry Wheels. Legs like a chicken yet he squats ridiculous poundages. Meanwhile there are guys with legs nearly twice the size that never go past half of what wheels does.
There is a lot to be said for sarcoplasmic hypertrophy. For quite a while I was laboring under the "gotta get strong to get big". Strong is relative. if you concentrate on 15-20 rep sets you'll get plenty big and plenty strong. But not strong like 1-3 rep lifts. One is nearly pure ATP- the other is glycolysis.

Really?
Would you say this is beneficial?
I'm trying to add 15% on my current squat. Is training it that way known to help?

Steve Justa had a singles routine in his book "Rock, Iron, Steel" that had you doing a lift as often as 7 days a week.
He says it worked really well for strength.
See if you can find the book online in .pdf

I'll definitely check that out.
I'd like to get my squat up to 450. It's doing that below parallel that I have a hard time with. My top half of the squat is pretty good. I'm absolutely willing to train squats every day if it will help.
I don't know how on earth Ed Coan did 905 for reps. That just seems so out of the cards to me that I don't get how a human being could do it.
I'll check that book out. Thanks for letting me know.

That dude is awesome!

I would be afraid of slipping a disk at that age. If an injury happens he may not recover.
