Stan Efferding - Strongest bodybuilder

**ryuten** · 08-02-2009, 11:51 PM

From Super Trainer his stats:
Stan has squatted 755 benched 550 and deadlifted 765 Raw.
He did a 2070 Raw total at 275

Hope it's not a repost.

Hot dayum that is one strong mother****er. I'd hate to workout at his gym though he'd be a complete plate hog.

**visionz1234** · 08-02-2009, 11:59 PM

Good to see ST pick up another beast. Efferding's strength and explosiveness is insane.

**KevinSorbo** · 08-03-2009, 12:21 AM

awesome lifts, not the strongest bber though.

**.assassin.** · 08-03-2009, 12:24 AM

Holy sh*t, 210 pound incline dumbbell presses?! Damn...

**Lion_Heart03** · 08-03-2009, 12:42 AM

Who cares.....this is bodybuilding not strongman

**Teench** · 08-03-2009, 12:46 AM

I think Ronnie is still stronger.

Me, for one. He's a strength athlete, a sports scientist, and a bodybuilder and his overall philosophy applies very well to what most of us want to achieve in bodybuilding. We should consider looking closer at something before we dismiss it, as it may turn out to be more valuable than we might have thought.

I think if Ron tried that in 2003 he could have done it easy

but, still very impressive!

great post and I agree totally. we are here to talk about pro bbing but most of us here want to get bigger and better. And Stan offers a great perspective as this man is VERY smart and educated. We are living in a world of Bob Chicks (no offense) where lighter is better and "live by the pump" etc. etc. etc.

Stan offers a different perspective. He has been training with Flex and states he has been training more like a bodybuilder but still goes VERY heavy on certain things. There is a big, well starting to be big push to get back to old school training, heavy, hard, get strong, get big. Instead of the new age "don't lift heavy just look like you do" attitude.

**siersy** · 08-03-2009, 06:19 AM

more truth from you,

after swapping back to heavy weights for 3 weeks i already feel like i am blowing up in size... i got caught in the pump trap for too long

...

a bit of both is where it's at

lol, not saying he stronger then this guy, just saying if could do 200 pounds for 12 reps in the late 90's, then he could prob do 210 for 9 reps like this guy easy when he was at his strongest in 2003.

I totally agree and you do have to find the happy medium. Some will read my post and others and think you should just throw around heavy weight regardless of if you feel it or not in the muscle. Obvously you don't want that.

but look at the bodybuilders who try to ge stronger and in general lift "heavy" they look so much better in general.

**eXpiRaTioN_DaTe** · 08-03-2009, 07:28 AM

that guy has one of the most recognizable grunts ever. i remember i was watching a pauline nordin video and i heard grunting in the background and i was like holy **** thats rhino. watched it again and there he was in the background doing bicep curls haha.

**siersy** · 08-03-2009, 07:32 AM

lol damn if i saw her in the gym i would be grunting loudly too....

if she was doing squats i would not be able to work out...

luckily women barely ever make their way into the weights room, i would never get anything done. or start to day dream inbetween sets looking at tits and azz

haha yea that reminds me, a buddy of mine was doing incline bench with a BB when this pretty cute blonde walks in. so of course every guy in the gym stops what theyre doing and runs over to the freeweights to start doing biceps or chest. well my friend was just staring at this chick as hes unloading the weights and grabs the 2nd 45 instead of the 1st (we were at 225) and as he pulled it off, the first one fell off the bar, landed on his foot and broke his toe haha.

**siersy** · 08-03-2009, 07:51 AM

LOL ^

how could you not know that your pulling off another plate....

must have been one of those 'DAT ASSS' momments

**ryuten** · 08-19-2009, 02:42 AM

Oh ****, check this out!
820 Raw and has good depth too!

Yea, this is bodybuilding not powerlifting. But check out his training!

That 820 wasn't raw he was wearing knee wraps.

Absolutely correct, and if cycling heavy and moderate lifting days, would be better.

Ps. Stan is freaky strong!

Uhh yeah they are, you can clearly see the end of the wrap behind his knee on his first squat and above the wrapping in his second squat.

If i was in the gym and saw this:

There would be a protein explosion

hes not stronger than Ronnie was. Look at the ease in which Ronnie did 12 full, fairly fast reps on flat in 2000. I have no doubt he could have gotten the 210s on incline much more than Stan, but much respect to Stan, hes strong as hell.

**tarrask** · 08-19-2009, 08:24 AM

Dude looks like a jacked Kelly Slater. lol

Seeing her walking around the gym would make me explode

who cares about a lean IFBB squatting 820 in knee wraps? My guess would be alot, alot of ****ing people care.

GTFO please. I am so fukking sick of these homos that only want to hear about pros and their mind muscle connection with 5 lb reverse wrist curls. And its always the weak ass people that make these gay remarks too... compensating much?

AGHRRRRR THIS IS THE IFBB FORUM, NOT THE IFBB PROS WHO DO OTHER THINGS THEN STRICTLY BODYBUILDING FORUM AGHRRRR
