I don't think 240 is possible for him. He now fails almost every time at much less weight than 240kg. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | I doubt he will do any comps between the log lifting champs and now. He will focus on that and be doing it in Lithuania so will probably get to train with the log. | ||

True but this 470 kg deadlift talk NEVER came from himself.Never seen and interview or somewhere written that he could do 470kg. The only he personally said was that his best is 440kg x 2 which is fairly believable. | ||

I agree, although I think Brian is actually stronger now on almost everything except log. Z was able to win Arnold cause he can still come in second when the weights are really heavy. Brian out did Z by a good margin on dumbbell and yoke. What saved Z is that not many (or no one) could get in between them (i.e. no one is close to Brian). I don't think Z has a shot at winning when the weights aren't maximal so expect he will come in 3rd at WSM. That said, I've counted him out before and he's proved me wrong. | ||

level 4 bioCheese Member 5265, 82 posts | Z just won Arnold for only second time in 6 attempts and that despite a severely depleted deadlift I don't think he is doing too bad. He has missed the log record several times but I reckon he will push it up to or beyond 230 sooner or later with a log he likes and not tired from competing. Arnolds being heavy suits Z but I don't think the actual events do so much particularly now he struggles with the deadlift, dumbbell is not his best event and yoke and bale tote he is pretty good at but not guaranteed the win. Obviously the log does suit him. I expect him to win or be close again come worlds. | ||

Member 4923, 1795 posts | Z should bulk up to 200kg temporarily, hoist a 230+ log then retire. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | What did Radz and Z actually lift in the log at this comp? I would assume minimum of 200kg if Thor got it. Thor also did 8 reps of a 115kg dumbbell in a minute...to me that sounds ridiculous. | ||

I suspect he'll be sub-par at WSM when it comes to deadlift. He "rested" most of last year and that doesn't seemed to have helped. Whatever it is I suspect it isn't going to get better. There are those that will say his back can't be hurt if he's still deadlifting 400kg, but it does certainly seem that something is going on with his lower back. He killed on the power stairs at last year's WSM indicating he's in awesome shape, but struggled at the deadlift and the heaviest atlas stone. That would seem to suggest trouble or a weakness off the ground. He obviously didn't have that issue in 2014 as he killed at the Arnold hummer tire and one of the other Arnolds did something like 10 reps at 375kg for the win (not sure on the weight). Z used to easily be able to do a 430kg deadlift, but we haven't seen that from him in a while. Seems as though something is definitely off. | ||
