I do believe that he has amongst the strongest hands on the planet and that there aren't many people who could out lift him in any sort of "all-round" strength competition.


grip people can be deceptively strong. some of the guys i know from grip world are beasts yet slim and scrawny otherwise.

i struggle a lot more believing his benches. 600lbs @ 100kg looking like he barely lifts.
anyone i've seen benching 250kg+ at lowish bw (which is just a few at 110kg and 1 or 2 at 100kg)
is absolutely jacked: massive chest + delts, stumpy upper arms that would make purple aki come from a hundred yards.

Yeah, it's definitely things like that that cause the doubt...to be fair to him he was well over 100kg in that vid however.

Mike Macdonald would blow your mind then. Happy

agreed he looked very normal... but he did it on the plaform, so never be doubted.

Tried a 255 DOH on a Texas DL bar.

The wall between what you can and cant do is a harsh mistress. 240 was relatively easy. no sign of slipping. 255 a small jump for deadlift. but DOH. definately too much.

Got a nice 230 tonight which actually felt easier than the 220 did last week, 240 next week for sure Grin chalk on a stiff bar with s**t knurling!



Forgot to take my trainers off as well, so it was from a deficit Cool

I had a massive carb load last night and I'm going to absolute this afternoon for a deadlift session with the boys.

Sorry to disappoint but 232.5 did not budge today, perhaps something to do with loads of pull-ups yesterday (that's my excuse)

As compensation here's a default pb of 240kg x 2 axle deadlift

scared of what his purple highness had in store had you succeeded.
nice axle though looked quite easy.
