The Official Powerlifting and Strongman Family Appreciation Thread: Part XVII

[martin_mathers]

just got home. what the fuuck misha where is he? really disappointed with the Russians. Let's go Murikka!!

[NorthStrong]

Mega post incoming

Zahir is probably had to cut just to make 275...

Huge weight difference. That comparison doesn't even make sense.....

I bet Eric lillibridge lifts more at 308 than he has at 275 to guys.

Doubt Zahir weighs 270. Would guess like 260-265, will be interesting to see on the results sheet for sure.

Also that last sentence I don't think anyone will disagree with lol.

What do you guys think KK will pull?

Over 900?

Highly doubt it.

Does anybody know what he actually weighed in at? He's huge but he's not that much bigger, Dan walks around in the 260's last I knew.

^^

Chances Koklyaev is taking this seriously? Or will he be sandbagging like every other Russian

Did he even lift? I missed the last hour and a half.

Meanwhile in the USA, Tee Cummins goes 2000 @ 220!

That's awesome - Tee is a great lifter, just slowly inching his total up every meet he does, working hard and not being involved in internet drama lol.

Holy **** at the call out to everyone watching for free

"Pay the ten ****ing bucks" on a mic in front of the whole crowd

That's funny as sh!t. They should probably just be mad at the Sutor Strong (Russian) Channel that's streaming it LOL.

Deepest I've ever seen Eric squat SRS. only weighed 293 too.

CWS is only 28 years old!?? I thought he was 35 plus

CWS is young yeah lol. Big weight drop for Eric from training - all of his recent vids have been at 300lbs BW.

CWS squatted 959, Eric missed 1003 twice

That's a pretty nice 22lb PR for CWS, in just a few months. So what was Eric's best Squat?

Where is Misha??

[kmc06005]

KMC, how bout dem razorbacks?

[adamsz]

Jesus that bald spotter has some major swamp ass going on

[ARoth1]

I hate benching, so I'm gonna go join the riot occurring outside my dorm room for a little bit and then come back in time for the deads lol

[brotein1992]

Jesus that bald spotter has some major swamp ass going on

I'm hoping that's just a design

[kmc06005]

I hate benching

[kmc06005]

What was Zahir's 3rd? That's the squat that contributes to his total, correct?

[ARoth1]

What was Zahir's 3rd? That's the squat that contributes to his total, correct?

430 IIRC. Ya, 4th won't add to his total.

[BigLarge]

not sure if anybody pointed out the obvious, but i find it pretty ironic that on the big poster above the platform there's malan squatting, meanwhile IRL he's going push-pull

uhhh...... Malan didnt squat?

[brotein1992]

Zahir and green are in the next flight right? I'm stalling at going to get food until then unless there not until flight 3

[WorldDomnit]

uhhh...... Malan didnt squat?

he got injured. Probably wont deadlift much

[dlt76028]

INB4 Zahir out totals Eric L, he benches alot more, but hasn't pulled forever and I'm guessing Eric pulls 875-900

[whitessp]

Doesn't eric bench close to 600?

[dlt76028]

Jesus that bald spotter has some major swamp ass going on

Just noticed, mirin swamp ass

[dlt76028]

Doesn't eric bench close to 600?

not at all. be lucky to pause 540ish

[kmc06005]

Doesn't eric bench close to 600?

Naw... 560 TNG gym lift is the best I've seen from him. IF he can pause it he can hit 903 for 2400.

[whitessp]

Ah ok. I don't know why I thought I've seen a 580 bench from him before.

[kmc06005]

Dan hit 507. Doesnt look like he has anymore than that to me.

[dlt76028]

Dan hit 507. Doesnt look like he has anymore than that to me.

One of the judges keeps red lighting his sloppy bench too.

Zahir nearly threw 507 through the roof.

[kmc06005]

Dan hit 507. Doesnt look like he has anymore than that to me.

And then Zahir hit it for a speed rep...

[dang111]

I've been away, where are they at? Still benches for the DG/Zahir flight?

[kmc06005]

I've been away, where are they at? Still benches for the DG/Zahir flight?

Yep. Thirds are coming up. Zahir better put some weight on the bar.

[MattIsBored]

I've been away, where are they at? Still benches for the DG/Zahir flight?

They've got there 3rds to do

[NorthStrong]

Was the 507 Zahir's 2nd

iirc Zahir hit 617 ish at a bench only meet a while back.

[adamsz]

Don't think dan should be goin up that much

Edit: eating my words lol

[dang111]

Wow, DG grinds out 237.5! I thought there was no way.

Zahir gets 250. Thought I saw up and down motion but 3 whites.

[ARoth1]

What a grinder from Dan! I'm with you guys, didn't think he had a shot

[kmc06005]

Dan with 523, and Zahir with 551. I don't think he has put enough distance between himself and Eric. It'll be close if E can put up a nice bench.

[dlt76028]

z was pausing a lot longer than dg
