Eddie too did 472 in WSM beating thor and Brian and went on to win the comp , probably the biggest stiff bar pull in any comp, and he did it so easy that if had it been matched he would have pulled more, go watch it.

@@Ian-if2lfEddie did it easy but he also got a soft call when locking, not saying his 472.5 where not impressive, but he almost didn't got there. Thor also has a 472 on the elephant bar, a more difficult lift and he was deep into the 4th ASC event, plus done Raw without figure of 8's
@Ian-if2lf2 ай бұрын
@@antoniocenteno1483the more difficult is subjective, Thors pace of pull on the bendy bar suits him, plus it allows you to be far more from the ground before you are actually pulling the full weight a bit like a partial pull from platform or blocks, its the whip that people struggle with most, which is about timing and speed so needs practice, pretty sure if Eddie had put his mind to it and practiced for a bendy bar he would have pulled records on that too.
@Adam-bw6dj2 ай бұрын
@@Ian-if2lfIt doesn't allow you to be far more of the ground at all. It is a higher start yes but you make it sound like a silver dollar deadlift. Brian Shaw himself said on Mark Bells podcast they didn't get the effect they were after because the bar isn't as bendy off the ground as people think. The ASC wanted it to essentially be like the hummer tyre, just a higher pull. That explains why nearly everybody pulls similar or less on the elephant bar than they pull with a standard bar, suit and figure of 8s.

Everyone Ivan has tried 500+ in comp, it got stuck on his knees which is why he's doing elevated deads over 509. As long as that 512 wasn't 1 week before the comp and he's recovered fully, I think he gets it cause his strength is his power off the floor. These block pulls practicing getting it over the knee and into lockout is what he needs to do, but he keeps doing these stupid heavy lifts to soon before competition.

No one is getting it. The only who can do it is Hafthor and isnt even there competeing, for reasons we all know. Hicksy looks like he's the strongest he's ever been but isn't convincingly strong enough for it. When anyone does a smooth triple at 460, or lets say a smooth double at 470, only then do I believe there's room for a 505. Everyone is doing great and they keep getting stronger but they're not there yet. Hicksy has got up to par with Ivan, I would bet they're both around 485-490. Never thought I'd say this after Ivans repeated failures, but he is looking to be the closest of them all this time, but still, not quite there.
