Will any man ever do this? Same goes for log press - maybe with the same bloke in question. | ||

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Maybe past certain weights it is like rowing with an exponentially higher power output needed. | ||

My asshole is not watertight.

Will any man ever do this? Same goes for log press - maybe with the same bloke in question. Given that only a 9% increase on his deadlift would result in a 500kg pull but a max log of 210kg would require an increase of 20%, I think the former is far more likely than the latter. Based on his age, I think he may get there on the deadlift IF (and it is a big if) he remains injury free. It's only a 5kg increase per year for the next 8-years and he's probably got a lot more years left in him than that. | ||

 Tom's CNS is better than steroids Member 2886, 2973 posts SQ 190, BP 122.5, DL 210522.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | I think we'll see both, at least I hope. The 500kg deadlift as soon as Tom stops being a pussy and bulks to 130kg! | ||

 Member 4522, 1898 posts SQ 222.5, BP 152.5, DL 245620.0 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq | Eddie's 461kg was easy up until last few inches of lockout. Definitely think he could get more weight off the floor. He could well be the man to do it! | ||

 Member 4416, 1370 posts SQ 210, BP 175, DL 240625.0 kgs @ 122kgs UnEq | Based on smart training and with the assumption that we'll become more educated on how to make the most out of our bodies, I'm sure it will come very close. But - we also have absolute maximum possibilities based on our humanity. Based on that alone I'd say no to the deadlift but yes a possible minor minor incrase. Maybe a 470, maybeeeeee.., one day. Unsure about the logs. Not sure if any or many will take Z's record but will certainly come closer as more people train on that apparatus. | ||

 An amazing human being Member 2047, 17156 posts SQ 262.5, BP 170, DL 300732.5 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | I reckon we'll see a 480+ deadlift in next 3 years, Big Z has said he's hit 470 in training so it not beyond wit of man to think 480 achievable. Think it may take a wee while longer for log but certianly think its possible | ||
