      Sumo is not deadlift. For me, using those belts makes it an assisted lift. There are no 1000 deadlifts until it is done with stiff bars and without any assistance like a belt or knee sleeves. Also, low bar squats are not squats.

The muscle mass of a Belgian Blue, the bodyfat of a Discord moderator. Rolling out onto the stage at Giants Live on a Rascal scooter, dripping with thick, olive-oil sweat and wearing a CPAP like the mask of Bane, all of it just to lift 537kg as a final fuck-you to the haters before succumbing to multiple organ failure on the platform.

      IDK, the way Eddie did it, what it was, and meant, and how he has done the WSM 2017 472.5(looked good for 490, second to last event(!) before stones), tells me, that Thor was great, but he was never as strong as Eddie. Sure Thor can do 520, but Eddie could do perhaps 540, eventually. He had about the same strength finishing the WSM a year later guys, while considrebly lighter, it was no "one off".

And I think he's said the plates were weighed out as well as calibrated. A lot of powerlifting fans want to shit on it because it was in gear, but if Strongman allows for suits too.

      Lol, that's the twist! That actually is a possibility.... abeit an incredibly small one. I had a training partner compete in a Hardcore meet and said guys were smoking PRs all the way. Anecdote and speculation, yes, but those two things pay my mortgage....

      For all we know it was 2000. But looking at the limited training vids in the lead up, and his comps before and since, I'd take a bet that it was upper 9's. Don't mean to discredit him, he's a legend, but that event looked like a cowboy circus.

    Your comment about how the best/strongest do what’s best for them based on the conditions of the competition is what matters more than anything imo.
    Should all beginners/intermediates lift like some of these? Absolutely not, but that doesn’t mean it’s not where they might end up (depending on gym lift/strongman/powerlifting rules of course).
    Great vid :)

    Fun video! I like when people have fun with lifting instead of getting super serious. Also, wild how many GOAT-tier strongmen had what might be called "subpar technique". Should our takeaway be that optimal technique doesn't matter as much? Or that these guys are so gifted and hardworking that even lifting suboptimally they're still so crazy strong? Or both?

    Not a 1000 lbs, but definitely think Jesus Olivares's 903 deadlift with a power bar, in a full meet, after hitting a 1036 squat and 600 bench before that, was more impressive than many of the deadlifts in this video. The speed of that pull was insane.

  • @PATRICKMARCUCCI
    @PATRICKMARCUCCI 2 місяці тому

    This was a great video! Maybe they can just put sumo deadlift as its own portion of powerlifting or something. Its very clearly not comparable to conventional. But then again some people have crazy long arms for conventional deadlift. And there's people with shorter arms benching bigger weight. IDK. Also I've recently seen some people in strongman contests just letting the weight totally hang from the figure eight straps and not even trying to make it look like they are holding it. Thanks for the content. I'll have to watch this video again before my deadlifts next week. Thor's new deadlift stance definitely looks more optimized.

    Those bendy bars are like bench shirts, though not quite as extreme. Brian Shaw is such a beast. And being that he's so tall, it's even a more amazing feat. Not only does he have to lift the weight higher, he has less leverage to do it than someone shorter.

  • @realpatriot5896

    I was always surprised that they do not use the reverse grip. When I was competing I used the Sumo stance with the left hand under and right hand over. No one used straps back then though and we could not drop the bar.

    I definitely think that sumo got a bad rap because of the flexible bars. Sumo definitely benefits waaaaay more from bendy bars. It’s way more impressive on stiff bar when it can be more difficult than conventional for some individuals considering it’s tougher to break off the floor and requires more mobility at the hips.

    They measure "wilks" and relative strength but they, for some reason, don't measure total work output (Force x distance). To explain this, Hafthor when he lifted 501 kg with his frame, executed a much more impressive rom than Jamal (not trying to throw shade at him though). So greater distance the weight travels, greater total work output, greater relative strength. But if you ask a "powerlifter", Jamal is relatively stronger based on some simplistic bodyweight/weight ratio. Powerlifting is ruled by small frames and you can tell by just applying simple logic. Like why is a 400 lbs squat performed by some short femur guy more impressive than that very same weight moving 1.5x the rom performed by a 7 ft nba player with long femurs ? I just can't get it. At the end of the day, when we transfer strength to real world tasks, hafthor is the guy that will pick up a heavy bag and get it up to a 4 ft table, and the nba player I mentioned is the one who will jump like an ostrich and dunk. I don't know if I explained myself correctly, but to sum it up, powerlifting "relative strength" ratios and standards are utter BULLSHIT.

    I saw the backstage footage that Eddie released after the lift. He legit almost died. He kept passing out over and over, said it took him weeks to recover from that lift. He said he couldn't remember his own name or his wifes name and had his memory damaged. What Eddie Hall truly went through to complete that lift was brutal and terrifying. He pushed himself far past human limits, the will it must have taken is staggering.

  • @shimrrashai-rc8fq
    @shimrrashai-rc8fq 2 місяці тому

    The bars aren't made to hold that much weight. What is needed is a special "ultra heavy" bar that is like twice as thick as a normal bar (and thus has like 4x the weight, so 180 lbs instead of the usual 45.), and of course suitably adapted plates (larger center hole) to boot, so really an ultra-heavy weight set. This bar won't bend (at least anywhere near as much) and thus you can see just how much of the appropriate distance can be covered at what types of extreme weights.

    • @TheMulalley
