 Not so much as forgotten as can't remember Member 894, 4924 posts SQ 245, BP 167.5, DL 272.5685.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Very very very good question Dean Willey was stronger in my opinion and as a kid I love the 8 photo breakdown of his snatch of 137.5kg in Los Angeles from start to finish Brilliant Due to the fact Dean was stronger I actually prefer Stuart if I had to choose, his lifts impress me more Picking a favourite out of a Yorkshire lad and a southerner is tough though  I would say Dave Mercer  | ||

 u75kg World Powerlifting Champion. Member 601, 3067 posts SQ 222.5, BP 177.5, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | kirkynick said: What are the other reasons? Don't be mean, let me in on it Wed only ever do it on the last set because obviously we've finished, then we f**k off home leaving the bar loaded on the floor.. It's not good to leave a bar in a squat rack fully loaded.. So basically because were lazy & cool. | ||

Too many fast-twich fibres No not at all. Weightlifters can do anything they choose, but they are just too cool to do certain things. | ||

140/160 Member 2018, 115 posts | Never seen Gareth Hives lift before, very impressive. Interesting seeing Pete lift as an 82kg in '86 then a 100kg in '90! Was he injured cos he failed to stand with 80 and I've never seen him struggle for leg strength. Loving the vids... Looking forward to seeing more Callard plus (my first coach) Anthony Arthur. | ||

Yeah May wasn't 100% fit at the time but they took him anyway, still walked away with a Bronze medal though (with lifts very similar to my own at the time at the same BW  ) | ||

Looking forward to seeing more Callard plus (my first coach) Anthony Arthur. Gareth was very impressive. I seen him front squat 240kg at our gym in the early 90's. Never reached his true potential. | ||
