Only about 25 mins in so far but this is definitely the best powercast i've heard in a while. Very funny and on the topics I think most of the audience is most interested in. Thanks Jim!
500 x 22!??? Why was that not on film!? Last 500 rep PR Eric has on film I believe is 13-15 or so? I'm not doubting 22 at all, I'm literally asking why that's NOT on UA-cam! lol that's insane!
Michael Adriano He's been on. During the pre-video era of the show. shoutengine.com/MarkBellsPowerCast/dan-green-raw-powerlifting-world-recordholder-1225
"this guys calculated 1Rm is 721lbs. a random guy from a street gym is probably the strongest guy in the world.." - 3 year old comment on the video of Spoto's first appearance at ST. Weird reading that, knowing this guy didn't have a clue what was going to happen the next year.
Listening to Eric talk reminds me a lot of recent Coan interviews. There's no bullshit they just humbly discuss extraordinary accomplishments. Thanks for the upload
hey could you guys include a small screen in the corner to show what your watching so we can also see. it would be nice to see that stuff as you narrate it.
It seems like more and more I hear about bodybuilders that start lifting and convert over to powerlifting end up having alot of success. Maybe its how the a bigger muscle has the potential to be a stronger muscle, I forgot if Chad Smith or Spotto said that.
Why does no one mention Glen Chabot? He benched 665 raw back in I think 2001 at a 275 lb bodyweight. There's a video on youtube of him benching 600x3 and 675x1 with a flat back and he has long arms. Fucking impressive.
fun fact about john brzenk: while being the best arm wrestler in the world, he made less than $20,000 per year, and worked as an airplane mechanic while competing.
do u also flare with a swiss bar? can we get a vid on it plz. ive been using it since my surgery got 3 bone chips removed, used a slingshot after 7 yrs of pain, went from missing 240 to 385x2 5 sec pause, 365 5x6 5 sec pause with red slingshot, all at bw of 210,and then the bone chips started to get annoying as fuk,now 5 months post surgery, 185+40 chain raw x6 then wtih slingshot 4x6 close grip feeling good, so yeah lil vid on the swiss bar would b great, i will b uplading a vid of how the slingshot helped me recorved from 7 yrs of a separetaed shoulder with 3 bone chips moving around to close to gettting 405 i missed it by like 3 inches at the top, mad as fuk, great job in the channel u 3
Or biggest loser but people do bodybuilding and get jacked?? Surprised that's not a thing. It could teach people how to eat and train but still be like a reality show
2015 is the year they go to in Back to the future. Blew my mind when i found out about that. The hover board thing you guys are talking about was a hoax though.
Eric is too nice to call out any fake bencher, No way Woods benched 375(300 tops being generous), Brock 675 is bullshit too( Low 500's maybe) all i know is he can bench 225 43 times....
Eric seems like such a nice and humble guy, insane considering how big he is in the sport. Thanks for the vid!
Only about 25 mins in so far but this is definitely the best powercast i've heard in a while. Very funny and on the topics I think most of the audience is most interested in. Thanks Jim!
The info about peaking that starts just before the 1 hour mark is gold.
500 x 22!??? Why was that not on film!? Last 500 rep PR Eric has on film I believe is 13-15 or so? I'm not doubting 22 at all, I'm literally asking why that's NOT on UA-cam! lol that's insane!
Nick Wright 315 for 62 should also be on film .....srs
ATG gains True! But his 315 x 46 is at least on UA-cam. I feel like 500 x 22 is a whole new level!
Nick Wright jesus man 500 x 22 ....fuck ....I'm sure you'll get it before me Big Nick :) srs...not srs
ATG gains Sheeiiittt I'll get 22 reps out of 500KG fakk it.
Nick Wright lmao I'm sure you will Nick. You gotta get that 315 for 62 first tho baby steps bro baby steps.
You should screencast your laptop and overlay it on the video so we can see what you guys are looking at.
Plum Yeah they should
Will you guys ever have Dan Green on?
Michael Adriano He's been on. During the pre-video era of the show. shoutengine.com/MarkBellsPowerCast/dan-green-raw-powerlifting-world-recordholder-1225
Jim McDonald Love You!
dan green is a great lifter but verbally he leaves ALOT to be desired
"this guys calculated 1Rm is 721lbs. a random guy from a street gym is probably the strongest guy in the world.." - 3 year old comment on the video of Spoto's first appearance at ST.
Weird reading that, knowing this guy didn't have a clue what was going to happen the next year.
Please tell me there is a super training video coming with Eric?!? Killer content as usual!
Eric seems like such a nice guy, so chill for being one of the strongest people on Earth. Really look up to how humble this guy is, keep killing it!
Listening to Eric talk reminds me a lot of recent Coan interviews. There's no bullshit they just humbly discuss extraordinary accomplishments. Thanks for the upload

Paolo Padoin There's a card that pops up on screen with a link to the video.
Imagine Jason Genova in the next episode
he's so down to earth for a world record holder. nice guy
When will the rest of the spoto videos come up? this was great.
Great episode guys as always, really taking it to the next level. Any chance of getting George Leeman on?
Great video, look forward to more
Terminator "alright"!? Come on Mike... :(
+Nick Wright dude its a scientific fact that predator ruins terminator.
Zydrunas was competing in powerlifting back in the late 90's - early 2000's, he took second to Brad Gillingham at the 2000 IPF worlds.
Eric Spoto is the King of the bench press
this is one of my favourites thanks guys
It seems like more and more I hear about bodybuilders that start lifting and convert over to powerlifting end up having alot of success. Maybe its how the a bigger muscle has the potential to be a stronger muscle, I forgot if Chad Smith or Spotto said that.
Favourite show of the week
Any plans to get Dave Spitz or any of the Cal Strength guys on?
That is awesome that slint mike wint to Duke. !
I really like how spoto emphasizes lots of fruits, veggies, grains and nuts
Spoto is awesome, so humble even though he's the best in the world.
Where is the original video of Eric coming to super training for the first time? Anybody know the title?
As Spoto said in while they were looking for it, search for "spoto 585" or "spoto 635" and it should be the first result in UA-cam.
34:00 which hendrick are they talking about?
Hendrick deez nutz
Why does no one mention Glen Chabot? He benched 665 raw back in I think 2001 at a 275 lb bodyweight. There's a video on youtube of him benching 600x3 and 675x1 with a flat back and he has long arms. Fucking impressive.
more Spoto please!
Eric is a biggggg man. Crazy strong Bench.
i fucking died at 12:55, the bit about Mark Bell preferring juiced spotters because they have smaller nuts dangling where your face is. LOL.
whats the name of the intro music on the Ed Coan video?
+elvisfan89 Nothing we use at ST is a real song. It's all production music.
+Jim McDonald oh ok. i love that music. always gets me pumped
Lots of famous people went to UNLV. Going there next year :)
fun fact about john brzenk: while being the best arm wrestler in the world, he made less than $20,000 per year, and worked as an airplane mechanic while competing.
Brad Gillinghams a beast but what about Andy Bolton? I think he's deadlifted 900+ almost 50 times.
Will Jonnie Candito or Brett Gibbs be ever on the powercast..???????
do u also flare with a swiss bar? can we get a vid on it plz. ive been using it since my surgery got 3 bone chips removed, used a slingshot after 7 yrs of pain, went from missing 240 to 385x2 5 sec pause, 365 5x6 5 sec pause with red slingshot, all at bw of 210,and then the bone chips started to get annoying as fuk,now 5 months post surgery, 185+40 chain raw x6 then wtih slingshot 4x6 close grip feeling good, so yeah lil vid on the swiss bar would b great, i will b uplading a vid of how the slingshot helped me recorved from 7 yrs of a separetaed shoulder with 3 bone chips moving around to close to gettting 405 i missed it by like 3 inches at the top, mad as fuk, great job in the channel u 3
lol i love how Mike think The floating skateboard is real :)
That's my name, at the beginning. Caught me off guard lol.
George Leeman on the podcast next?
Spoto is king,
George Leeman has the all time american deadlift record 909lb at SHW with HOOK grip
not a powerlifting world record, still thats heavy. Benni is still king
joe nolan i said its not a POWERLIFTING WORLD RECORD. its a strongman deadlift record with straps.
joe nolan depends,i never max out with straps. I use it when i do volume work with it. Go check out Benni Magnusson. 1015 raw without straps
Dan Sesh Powerlifter no he doesnt, Gary Heisey has still pulled the most of any American ever
joe nolan because he didn't do it in a powerlifting meet with powerlifting standards
8:02, love Jim and Mike's reactions haha
do you ever notice if you put the speed on 0.5, everyone sounds drunk?
the heaviest all time American deadlifts are still Garry Franks 931 then Gary Heiseys 926 guys, look it up
Eric Spotos Triceps are Hugeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
After Eric completes his 750 goal, does he ever plan to get into some gear and go for the world equipped record like Mendy?
+Michael Monteiro he doesnt care about gear
14:02 Silent mike, hilarious.
Dude I live in Poughkeepsie
FINALLY!!!
4045404540454045 Yup....I've been waiting for this one...can't wait to listen...I'm going to save it for later.
I-R-WAY?! Silent Mike you are a fucking god haha
Big Z did powerlift in his day before he began dominating strongman. ( 57:05 )
Imagine biggest loser makes biggest gainer with advanced powerlifters, whoever makes biggest improvement during the year wins $1,000,000
Or biggest loser but people do bodybuilding and get jacked?? Surprised that's not a thing. It could teach people how to eat and train but still be like a reality show
Alex P too bad tv is full of idiotic negative shit rather than positive truthful things.
I wanna see Rick Steiner and Scott Steiner.
Does Eric squat or deadlift?
+Troy Obillo Yes. I think he actually talks about it in this episode.
His best squat (when he was 20) was 675lbs x 3, he was benching 500 at the time
" that's not that good, your a piece of shit " hahahahaha
i dodnt know bubba ray dudley was on the show
king spoto
fery here...
2015 is the year they go to in Back to the future. Blew my mind when i found out about that.
The hover board thing you guys are talking about was a hoax though.
Can I be on the powercast? Lol
One of the funniest
Eric is too nice to call out any fake bencher, No way Woods benched 375(300 tops being generous), Brock 675 is bullshit too( Low 500's maybe) all i know is he can bench 225 43 times....
You never know and since golfers do not get tested Woods may very well hit 375. It's not uncommon.
I have seen woods in person , He is 6 foot 190 tops..High200's tops..
1:11 That's wisdom.
Sorry 1hour and 11 minutes on. That's wisdom.
I'm going to get 800
Did they forget Kirill
PowermanGustav probably didn't want to mention him with spoto there
It's a shame Silent Mike isn't exactly that...Silent!!
"Eric smashing world records and I'm starting world trends." - Silent Mike
But I thought mark was the king of bench
excitebike ... classic.
Mark Henry... THE WORLDS STRONGEST MAN!
...Skip to 1.02.00
bring eric buganhagen
Eric was benching 500 when he was 20 and weighed 220. Im 20, weigh 220 and benching 345 that is close enough right:)
It's always a little lower than what you think it is. Wink wink
Fairy mike youre hilarious
This is the video they talk about btw: ua-cam.com/video/Mgwe6Qn9fIM/v-deo.html
Another good pod!
PED users?
