Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | Well, if all those footballers and rugby players went down to a track and actually did it, often with video of them doing it, I would agree with you. | ||

 Hey mate, my name is Paul Dudley Member 632, 3628 posts SQ 200, BP 155, DL 282.5637.5 kgs @ 77kgs UnEq | I like this thread. How many at under 80kg...? I'd be very interested in that. I'm sure Shane has probably done it, off the top of my head I can't think of many more. Are there any LW power lifters in the UK pulling 300 plus at sub 80 (83kg to allow for that weight class..)? | ||

 Sports an extremely muscular arse. Member 38, 6253 posts | Two of my occasional gym partners pull 300+ no hitch or straps. One of them was at the GBPF NM the other weekend. | ||

nothing to hide, please follow my life on webcam Member 255, 3732 posts | ChrisMcCarthy said:Well, if all those footballers and rugby players went down to a track and actually did it, often with video of them doing it, I would agree with you. I'm possibly at odds with the younger generations, but, much as I like to watch people's training videos, IMO it doesn't really count if you can't do it in comp. Take Pat Mendes, best junior in the world on YouTube, but in comp.. | ||

Take Pat Mendes, best junior in the world on YouTube, but in comp.. To be honest, I quite agree with you...but since outside of Strongman there don't tend to be strapped, hitched deadlift contests then I think that's the best we're going to do. | ||

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq | BigMacca said: Paul Cooper (74kg type of fellow) pulled a powerlifting 300kg a couple of weeks back Great pull. I've never seen a sub 83 guy pull 300 in the flesh. Off the top of my head, in the 10 plus years that I spent in gyms and powerlifting clubs, I've only met 2 blokes in the (now old) 82.5 class pull 270-280. 300 is pretty special for sure. | ||

Probably the most impressive sporting achievement I've witnessed in the flesh: I believe he was 82kg. Great lift. | ||

 No one believed him anyway. Member 958, 11411 posts SQ 410, BP 215, DL 4251050.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | It was the 82.5 class back then, can't remember exactly what I weighed but probably a little under 82. I pulled 300 in my first comp unequipped at 78 point something. 330 unequipped in the gym at 82 ish around the time I did that 350 | ||

 Member 4416, 1369 posts SQ 210, BP 175, DL 240625.0 kgs @ 122kgs UnEq | Came here to state 300 is will be my lifetime goal but Tom just went and shartered my girly dream. Therefore, 301kg is my new lifetime goal. | ||
