 Mr.Potato deadlift Member 2675, 4630 posts SQ 300, BP 200, DL 300800.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Mikeneto said:I actually think he will just pull around 485kg for event win and forget 501kg. No need to risk injury and cost him the comp, europes and WSM. He can then go for 501kg at deadlift champs with a suit. Someone asked his coach what he thinks he will deadlift at the Arnold’s today during a ‘Q and A’ and he said 501kg | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | The_Lone_Wolf said:Just wait for all the hate and arguments if he pulls over 500kg on the Joseph Merrick bar... All the casual fans seem to think Eddie pulled 500 on a regular gym bar, not a deadlift bar with plenty of whip that had a lot of bend at that weight (looked to be 15" or so before the full weight comes up). They also don't seem to know he had a suit on or even know what one is. 500kg on the elephant bar raw is 100% harder than 500kg suited on a deadlift bar. | ||

You can't play safe all the time, its an extreme sport and pulling 501kg would give him a lot more than 50k (other than glory) too as it would be all over the internet and there's ways he will make money from that. I think he will go for it and get it. | ||

 It's a moonface era now.

For the very first time i agree with your opinion. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | His 465kg actually looked really good, no hitching. 485ish at the Arnold I predict. | ||

Thor will.probably win, but Brian will push him. He pulls slower than Thor, but his lock out strength is insane. His log looks GOOD also. Thor is the man to beat, but there is life in the old dog yet. | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Shaw's setup is easier...using bumpers where Thor is using powerlifting plates. So Thor still favourite. But Shaw should still pull something huge. I don't see Caron near if hamstring injury was legit, don't see Licis near either. Pritchett will look good, but unsure his body will hold up past 1000lbs. | ||
