Absolutely amazing:

Here is one final one. I enjoy watching him.

Does anyone remember watching the woman from China who C&J'd 400+ lbs. during the 2004 Summer Olympics?

What's next?

Wow, a 617 front squat - that's impressive. Well actually, it all is.

The first video is absolutely amazing (where did I hear that before?) Am I reading the title correctly? 190kg (418 lbs) at 60kg (132 lbs) bodyweight? I am in complete awe.........

I've been looking for it elsewhere and it does seem to be correct. Wow.....

Here's another example of amazing strength...an acrobat, though, not a powerlifter.

thats how it is in these countries that government select young kids, bunk them together (like military) give them a stick/bar and lifting shoes as their weapons, then teach them textbook perfect form.

Yeah I saw him on TV too. Incredibly strong but I would never want a physique like that so I'm not jealous :P

But do they? And at their age, they would more than likely have skin sagging issues if they managed to get all of that bodyfat down to under 10%.


One powerlifter who has an awesome physique I saw on WSM is Mariusz Pudzianowski. That guy is a beast.

Check out this clip of him working out: http://www.pudzian.pl/pub/video/DVD_sample.mpg

When I watch the part of him doing his jumproping I just picture him coming at me like that and it is pretty scary

I'm not particularly impressed with strong guys who are overly fat and out of shape, but you guys are putting a little too much thought as to what other men look like, could look like, etc...

This is the powerlifting forum.

Yeah... I'm no powerlifter but someone with that much bodyfat can't have a very healthy cardiovascular system either. So my concern is not only for the person's physique but also health! Deal with it... tough nuggies hahahahah.
