With Kashirina holding the c+j wr at 193, it must be well over 200 surely?


Kashirina, or one of the Chinese Lifters perhaps.

If we are talking things people supposedly did Udo Beyer allegedly did a 280 x 3 behind the neck push press.

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.

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.

I think radzikowski and savickas could get at least close.radzikowski did a 175kg x 10 Push press a couple of years ago
But only in the push presses.
Jerk they don't have a chance as they never do that.

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!

Radz has this pic doing a 240 kg overhead (probably push press) on his fb

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

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
