 Member 5560, 769 posts | Thor has taken a big step forward. I know the Arnold events are friendlier for him this year but even so... He's going to have a hard job not winning WSM this season. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | AdamT said: Yes and I think he will win that event, but doesn't need to really. He is seriously strong! Elephant bar or not. That's a f**king strong, raw deadlift! The elephant bar is way harder than people seem to think. Remember Eddie did a super hard lift of not much more than 1000lb on it. If you actually look at the bend in the bar when it comes up its no different than a deadlift bar plus shakes a lot. Everybody that's lifted on it has said its harder than they thought it would be. Also have to keep in mind that all these guys who did 1000lb+ can do it on a deadlift bar too, jerry actually lifted the 500kg off the floor with no suit after Eddie if you remember. | ||

I remember Thor will lift over 500 if he wants. Though not sure if raw | ||

His coach and nutritionalist changes have made night an day difference. Hopefully he wins wsm, has been on the podium far too many times to not win it. This comps not over yet though, still needs to nail the last event. | ||
