405 would be more believable... And push pressing (not strict).

That's a jerk. An impressive jerk but not a press in any possible way.

450 behind the neck is nuts.

In my late 20s/early 30s I was training 315 push presses from the front and my shoulder is still messed up from it. I hated them but the guy I was training with had an olympic lift background.

In that interview Norton admits his shoulders are really messed up.

Post by: SOMEPARTS on April 04, 2024, 07:30:33 PM: He's billed at 6'3". Had to be 350lbs + bw at that height. I would actually believe "just the finishing touch" with this guy when he was younger. He's a fireplug.
