 Member 4416, 1369 posts SQ 210, BP 175, DL 240625.0 kgs @ 122kgs UnEq | I can straight curl 85kg and I'm athletic, not strong. No f**king doubt he could do it. Especially the bench too. Everybody knows your lifts can go up or down a wopping percentage on a bad day so losing to Poundstone at some point doesn't disprove total ability. I'm now an average gym rat and I'm now a smidging off 200kg bench natural. I think those who doubt or don't have their own ability project that on to others. | ||

 It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d3HdfX7sTys Denis is stronger than Magnus and does some super s**tty form with ez bar wich is easier than straight. | ||

His hands and forearms? Of course. But biceps and tricep? I'm not sure. Magnus' 140 kg curl looked better than Cyplenkov's, who used alot more hip-momentum and an ez-bar. I'm not saying Samuelsson's were strict, but they were stricter than Cyplenkov's. And did you see how easy Magnus repped 170 kg in Close grip BP? | ||

I am from Germany so i know what i talk about. Member 5171, 1049 posts SQ 217.5, BP 160, DL 233.5611.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Cyplenkov did 170kg with ez bar. He has the strongest biceps in the world and is strictcurl world record holder And to this day i still have never seen someone do a 140kg straight barbell curl for reps from anyone and with that form. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | 270kg x2 on bench is Radz level of benching. I don't believe his lifts...I do believe he was natty. | ||

Mask it or Casket !! Member 4600, 8166 posts SQ 240, BP 162.5, DL 255657.5 kgs @ 90.5kgs UnEq | My mate just showed me a pic he took of Mr Magnus on his phone... He was crushing a can of coke...and the can looked like it was half the size of his hand...the guy has giant powerful mits. I bet the man could curl more than 140. Back in the 80s most of the gym were curling 60-100k. as Wayne has said. | ||

It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | Yeah Svend just did 140x2 easy straight bar curls and almost s**t on a arm restler specialist and probably the strongest biceps in history. Samuelson was natty... Whats going on here..im disapointed guys. Samuelson is currently running some good test cycle. The shape of him and vascularity.. this is not near natty, let alone his competition days. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Actually yeah...no where near natty. Don't know what come over me. Must have had a super optimistic moment and had a logic blip. | ||

Lovely ass Congrats. Member 5958, 2315 posts SQ 280, BP 170, DL 300750.0 kgs @ 138kgs UnEq | The fella who set the british record hit 262.5kg. I struggle to see why its so hard to believe a former WSM would struggle to put 7.5kg on that. | ||
