Now, no, I don't believe that either, and I don't believe that they would be on the level of Olympic Lifters but you would have to think some of the top throwers would be capable of a decent overhead lift. | ||

not stating facts. Member 3100, 502 posts | I'd imagine z could hit 250 or 260 out of the rack if he trained for it. He's apparently hit a 240 strict so you'd think 250 or 260 with legs. | ||

Jerk they don't have a chance as they never do that. | ||

Member 5366, 1090 posts | Post Edited: 14.08.2015 @ 15:35 PM by McMuffin_Gains There's now a category on officialstrongman.com for this - 'Overhead Anyhow'It's currently in early stages and still undergoing development as I understand so currently invite only but once it becomes highly populated it could very well help answer this question! | ||

Member 5729, 138 posts SQ 350, BP 240, DL 360950.0 kgs @ 150kgs UnEq | Radz has this pic doing a 240 kg overhead (probably push press) on his fb https://scontent-vie1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/t31.0-8/332887_217993698287151_1257419725_o.jpg | ||

Wee Donnie Member 5605, 450 posts | im sure Zydrunas best push press from a rack can come close to best olympic CJ if he trains for this i believe Chemerkin was the strongest pressers among Olympic lifters there is no weightlifter or powerlifter who can come close to best strongman pressers overhead for me Z is the strongest overhead not only because of his records but also the wide grip and wide opened elbows when he presses axle he uses no lats only traps, this is extraordinary shoulder power anybody who has pressed incline with wide opened elbows knows what i mean real power | ||

Member 5171, 1049 posts SQ 217.5, BP 160, DL 233.5611.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Well then someone should call zydrunas and tell him to press with tucked elbows so he even lifts more.... I press the same way as him.if i was stronger when using more lats or elbows tucked in then i would do it. So you cant say he is even stronger because he limits himself with wide grip and elbows | ||
