End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Post Edited: 30.05.2016 @ 10:59 AM by Mikeneto He isn't even the Usain Bolt of deadlift. Bolt on top form is unbeatable...we've just spent 8 pages discussing who is going to win. Shaw and Benni have both beat him recently. To have an Usain Bolt of strength sport you would need a guy that would break squat, bench and deadlift wr, win wsm and do it whilst not even training hard and in style. Would also do it at a younger age just because his genetics are that good. | ||

Dropping 461 doesn't count in 2014 that was a draw. And Shaw has never beaten him off the floor for max. If Giants Live want 500kg to go, Hall will do it. | ||

In a suit Ed is better, but Shaw is stronger raw. | ||

Perhaps Raw, maybe, but as Sam has said Shaw has never beaten Ed for max unless you count the hummer setup. In this comp though, anything goes, so suits can be used. Ed has said he now knows how to use a suit properly, so that could give him some extra oomph needed. | ||

Don't think he is overly bothered about one strength discipline world record. | ||

And Shaw has never beaten him off the floor for max. If Giants Live want 500kg to go, Hall will do it. Shaw's deadlift was clearly stronger at Arnold's, he beat him for reps at WSM...Ed is good at reps you stated so in a few posts back. Ed isn't way ahead of the pack in deadlift, if at all. In the last two years... Benni beat him at the deadlift comp 2 years ago Shaw beat him at hummer at Arnold's 2015 Shaw beat him at WSM 2015 Ed beat Shaw by about 1-2kg at Arnold's 2016 but max effort for Ed and Shaw's went up fast and smooth. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Just saw Thor's 420kg deadlift at the Arnold's Africa...he will be fine with another 5-6 week buildup to the Europe's. The young Polish guy will be immense if he can improve his deadlift by a lot. | ||

 It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | If Edd Hall retire after 500 kilo deadlift or wining WSM then i want him do it simply because he doesnt carry 190 kilos bodyweight well | ||

If anything Ed's lift that day was easier. In the Arnold's this year Shaw tore his hammy on his pull so how can you say it was smooth. An extra kilo or 2 could have ripped his hamstring off the bone. The WSM setup last year wasn't normal deadlift bar. On an Okie Texas Bar with a suit and straps there isn't anyone close to Eddie. I agree with Donnie that Ed looked better at 170kg. His recent vids suggest that this extra weight may be giving him a little extra strength now. | ||

500. Its gonna happen Member 4329, 300 posts SQ 120, BP 115, DL 175410.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Strange on here every 1 criticises and doubts are own lifters but supports shaw and z and every 1 else more. If he does it im sure people will be saying if shaw wanted to he could of done it to or if he breaks the log record people will say z could of done it if he was pushed more | ||
