Is there a front view vid of Eddie's dead lift?

Tom will do that raw before the year is out.

If Thor keeps improving at the rate he is..he will blast past a 500kg deadlift by next year.

Also Z got injured and went down to about 160kg lean..Ed is about an inch shorter but appears to have more chest and back muscle...I think he might end up around the same weight doing BSM.

I think Ed may have another pop at WSM in future...a quick bulk to 170kg another documentary etc etc

If Kieliszkowski won truck pull at close to 300lbs...all is possible...weight gain at WSM has usually been about truck pull.

Do you mean the even most favouring Heavy athletes is truck pull?

Increased size = increased static strength

True...but when Thor came on the scene he was 205kg...went down to 175kg obviously dropped in strength but after a while got to those levels at 175kg.

If Ed is say 195kg and goes to 160kg, he will be still stupidly strong...then maybe in 2019 he does a 2-3 month bulk and competes at WSM around 170kg.

Licis got 13 reps on squat...440kg deadlift

Kieliszkowski won truck pull...does 1500lb yokes

I think Ed would still do great between 160-170kg...which is heavier than the previous two.

DiD Ed lock it out? I didn't want to bring it up, but looked borderline. Fast as f**k though.


from the vid that was a couple pages back it looked neither locked nor held at the top...

Thors press was not locked he was like a bow...
