yeah i knew it was either 330 or 340 couldnt remember what Mark said.
And the other question about max weight i dont know the answer to mate


all i know is that a couple of people thew out a couple of names to counter my statement . Those names were of guys very strong in kit but not necassarily super strong raw(i.e strongest legs in the country). Andy Bolton was also mentioned and although he squats equipped around 550kg !!! ive only ever witnessed a vid of a 340 double in wraps , so to compare them is futile but that was what i was asked to do . For me personally Eds 330 for 9 !! when 400kg squatter Rob Frampton got a single rep the year before @ 10lb lighter weight 'may' imply that this f**king big dude is a serious serious contender to the claim to have the CURRENT strongest legs in the UK alongside Loz . Glenn Ross was probably the greatest but has retired now so is out of the argument .

Thing is no matter whom posted the vids someone would day they are not to pl depth. Ed hall is not getting treated any different to anyone else.

The reason I shower some people are having some fun with this is due to Eds own response to the comments a previous vid recieved.

Hes a really strong guy. Most people would be proud to be able to hold it on their shoulders, let alone try and squat it.

look at the comments on youtube. someone called it a half squat the cheeky bas***ds, Safe to say Ed was not happy.


His response to the half squat made me literally laugh out loud!

I'm not getting into the depth debate but he's one strong dude!

What sort of comments were they saying. I have seen Terry Hollands lifting 400kg+ deadlifts on youtube and ones were commenting about his technique. His technique was fine, but wtf if it was not perfect, It was well over 400kg.

I dont think i can be bothered anymore,you crack on


He competed in 2009 shortly after the ipf worlds, to test what he could do raw in a comp, making a bit of a mockery of the bdfpa world champ in the process....

Hmmm, it does seem Ed didn't take too kindly to it!!! To quote..... Half squat ur mum u prick!

I do think however he needs to chill out a little. If I was him I'd be looking at ways of making myself more marketable for sponsorships and the like and comments like this aren't going to help his cause.

That said, I think the "take your face for a s**t" catchphrase is very amusing!

It is amusing and it is only a joke!

I agree that for a potential role model and someone that's in the public eye at the minute that it's not a very clever thing to post on his own youtube channel.

And just to add that I am a fan of Ed and love watching him compete!

Maybe the bad boy / hard man vibe that he give out is good for marketing it certainly gets us talking and other people on the internet same goes for his vt on giants live walking round with his top off and punching metal shutters certaininly makes him stand out from the other guys

No harm in him being a bad guy IMO. Everyone is talking about him so he must be doing something right! He's pretty popular with the fans of he sport too!
