    Actually you're looking really good . Many times we see the strongmen look unhealthy after all their competitions due to they just want to give themselves a break and think they'll trim up later . You really give proper strength training a good name by continuing to take care of yourself . A credit to your sport and yes , i watched the true deadlifting world record holder break the 500kg barrier , 501kg will stand a lot longer i guarantee it . You could have done 20 or 30 more kg i bet that day . You did it the right way , and i wish you and your family all the best in the future . All the way from Glencoe Ontario Canada .

    Thanks for your deadlift tips. I always try to learn correct techniques from champions and try to implement to improve my results. Rolling weight towards a body is a very interesting technique very uncommon with conventional powerlifters. You are very tall and living proof that taller lifter can be successful in deadlift. Proper technique helps in avoiding unnecessary injuries. I hope people pay attention to your tips and learn how to lift like a champ. We can always improve our personal results.

    3 жыл бұрын

    @RaozSkillz Oh yeah, Eddie lifted that shit like a broomstick! He COULD have lifted more ... but he didn't. The record is for 'heaviest axel pressed overhead' - not 'heaviest axel that someone reckons they could have pressed overhead, several years ago, if they'd really gone for it'. That's the point that people are missing. It's like when Eddie said how he could have pulled a 550kg deadlift 'if he'd actually cared' - until he does it, that's all empty words. He's just saving face - and it's that kind of vain refusal to admit defeat that makes it very difficult for me to like him.
