He has a bad back as well. Otherwise he would of deadlifted 480 at Arnolds.

FAT_SAM said:I don't think Shaw would do much if at all over 320/220/400 to powerlifting standards.

Infact I really can't see him making depth. And his pulls even at 80% are a snatch-grip hitch fest. So those numbers may be me being generous.


would be interesting to see.
certainly being 2m+ tall is about as bad as it gets for squat and bench leverages.
does claim a 410kg squat on his wikipedia page. no idea where this figure comes from though.

One has to be pretty out of his mind if he thinks shaw would be weak at strict pressing or powerlifting.
He answers questions at facebook.so let's just ask him what he presses in training.

FAT_SAM said:Loz only did 370 in a full PL meet. Going from straps to mixed grip twists the pelvis off the floor. You lose a lot. It's not a grip issue.


should have hook gripped it then Wink

If someone's said it on Facebook, you can be pretty sure it's the truth.

I am surprised Loz doesn't hook. He has a ridiculous amount of pinch grip power so probably could. It is difficult not to lose skin and thumbnails once you get to huge weights with hook grip though. Even pulling 700 odd pounds hooked has deadened my thumbs permanently.

If brian shaw himself writes you the answer, you still wouldn't believe it then?

Not only is it probable that I wouldn't take an absolute strangers written word on a social media site as gospel, but I'd care about my apathy on the matter even less. I'm not a teenager. What people say on FB means less to me than the shape of my next poo. Maybe that's a flaw in my personality? Who knows?

Course I am. I said it on the internet so I must be. You have my permission to think about me tonight Happy

I don't understand what the matter is with you, but it is your opinion.
Good for you

Thor did 220kg x6 on the bench and always loses pressing events to Shaw. So you would assume Thor was s**t at bench as well if there wasn't a video.

Thor squatting 350kg easy in 2011..just knee sleeves. He is way stronger now.

Thor and Shaw don't have the classic long and skinny legs. Their legs are actually really thick, they've got the biggest calves by far.

Was that before or after he was resurrected from the Dead after being poisoned before exploding that little chap's head?

Shaw generates huge explosiveness from legs and uses them more than Thor. Thats why he's so good at dumbell. In my opinion Thor is stronger presser and squatter than Shaw.

I'm very cynical and believe very little of what people are supposed to have said online, I have narrow shoulders, mashed up collar bones and no hair. There's probably a lot more too Unhappy

Good for you

Great song. Write the theme tune, sing the theme tune...
