End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | I just watched the rogue videos for the Arnold classic and Brian Shaw was the most impressive athlete there. his 462kg deadlift was ridiculously impressive his 3x 300lbs on dumbbell was amazing his bale tote was probably the most impressive. BTW Z's one rep with the dumbbell is freaky! He actually presses a good proportion of the lift. | ||

 It's a moonface era now.

He actually presses a good proportion of the lift. dumbell shouldn be there as a test of brute strength because for sure When it comes to pressing Brian Shaw doesnt have it and still wins an overhead event he doesnt press for any second, just explosiveness it doesnt matter if its 110 or 120 or 140, if he finds the balance its there cant deny his athletism lets not forget this is done by someone who cant PUSH PRESS his own bodyweight | ||

Member 5171, 1049 posts SQ 217.5, BP 160, DL 233.5611.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 15.03.2016 @ 20:28 PM by LaTuta You mean log press his own weight?He did a double with the heavy log 2years ago.That should pretty much be his bodyweight. And a barbell or axle push press i haven't seen from him in years. So how do you know that? | ||

 We all live as we chose. Member 5051, 866 posts SQ 157.5, BP 95, DL 220472.5 kgs @ 61.1kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 15.03.2016 @ 22:46 PM by MuscleDemon Throughout my existence and upon my death I would want the girl/person to be happy even if I would not be the one doting on her. They are both consenting adults who are free to be together. It wasn't a shallow empty wild fling following his death. They have a child together now and are clearly committed. They must have a strong connection together and I am glad Shaw was there for her. I am glad that she found solace with another man and she was right to move on quickly. In my view you can't lament the dead too heavily and respect their memory more by continuing with a productive life. Don't cry for the dead, give joy to the living. | ||

 more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 3351015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq | Said it before and I'll say it again... Stick myself, Donnie and Shaw in a competition on pure strict shoulder power (seated barbell) and Shaw would come last and that's with 60-70kg extra bodyweight too. The dude is athletic as f**k and technically proficient. But he can't actually press s**t! Dumbell isn't a test of shoulder strength. Something is wrong when a dude that can't strict press 400lbs does 300lbs one handed. Just look how Z did the dumbell... Pure power. Z deserved the win overall. Everyone knows I am a Hall fan and support British Strongmen all the way but Z once again proved he is the best here. | ||

How would you or Donnie compare to Brian on Deadlift?? | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | I don't know if I would say that "something is wrong" - it's just clearly a different variation of overhead strength. | ||

 no longer the Swiss Deadlift record holder Member 3517, 3368 posts SQ 182.5, BP 122.5, DL 255560.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | ChrisMcCarthy said:I don't know if I would say that "something is wrong" - it's just clearly a different variation of overhead strength. I would suggest people just agree to disagree at this stage. There's been discussion of "overhead strength" vs "leg strength + overhead stability" here before, but someone always ends up getting their knickers in a twist.  | ||

I just think it's funny that a couple of recreational lifters are stronger in the gym than your idol! You must all see what I mean when I say Z has more raw power though. It is STRONGman afterall not technique athletic man  | ||

To me that is the most important lift, for overall power. | ||
