I wonder why, given that Arnolds is basically a huge static strength showdown, they dont have a squat?

400 for reps or something similar would be awesome...

Sexiest event ever !! ^^^^^^^^^^

Having said that being 'strongmen' a lot of the guys have fairly pedestrian squats for their size , apart from the obvious couple of monster squatters who have come from powerlifting backgrounds , as its not been required for so many years.

Can't see anyone but Z repping 400. Lalas and Radz one rep maybe, but nobody else could squat 400 I think??

In other news i REALLY want to see malan do max reps with 400

Is it tyre DL?

Can't wait to see it - pulling for Z, but I could see someone pulling out an amazing performance and beating him.

It kind of annoys me that there's very little squatting in strongman. I always enjoy watching it when they occasionally do it at WSM

Ok I didn't realise that lol, well if that's the case it can only have been in a couple of the group stages.

It's not exactly prevalent in strongman comps though is it

i think it's actually been in every WSM since 2001.
always some sort of squat. either keg apparatus, tyres, giant barbell or safari truck.

re the Arnold- would love to see burke win.

don't think it was in 2006?? could be wrong though. Either way it's been in most of them of the past decade or so.

It's usually in half of the qualifiers. Also been in a lot of under 90 comps hasn't it? As well as things like Fortisimuss a few years back and 105 worlds most years.

It's not in every comp but it doesn't seem to be thaaat uncommon does it?

To be fair I don't really compete in SM so might be a lot less common from the average grass-roots competitor's point of view.
