You say not bad for a little guy, however being a little guy has its advantages when it comes to lift numbers.

For powerlifting that might be true but strongman has some advantages for tall guys too.

If you look closely, Franco is completing this dead lift, with no straps! Truly amazing!

If you look at his bench his feet are not not touching the floor. He also has no arch in his back. That is a very difficult way to bench.That is just pure brute strength.

DIRECT WORDS FROM THE CEO/HEAD CHEESE....
-Mods cannot do name changes
-Mods cannot mass delete posts/threads
-Mods can only neg, no agreeing with posts
In other words if you do not like what you originally called yourself, do not take responsibility of what you wanted to at one point type for the world to see, or desperately want green boxes - YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK.
