Hixxy - Ivan - Rauno Pick your favorite

[@maxwelljackson9226]

My vote is on Ivan Makarov. I hope he doesn't peak early!

Rauno

[@bigmaguire9714]

512kg from low blocks is frickin crazy though

[@EllisThings]

All of these are super impressive, but it's still funny that everyone else is nearly killing themselves to hit this one thing whereas Thor does it at RPE9 while still being good at all the other events and moves on

[@mintyfresh1322]

A freak among freaks. Just hard for anyone to be at his level.

[@Ian-if2lf]

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.

[@antoniocenteno1483]

​@@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-if2lf]

@@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-bw6dj]

​​@@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.

[@easteuropeanviking]

This is getting monotonous to be honest, because we have seen this multiple times. All the hype in the world is built up to it, just that nobody manages to do it. Lemme know once an event is organized where Thor is confirmed. Peace.

[@thestrongmanhistorian]

This is their last chance. Thor is going to pull something ridiculous if he gets paid for it next year.

[@maxa8838]

​@@thestrongmanhistorian Agree.

[@bigmaguire9714]

Thor is unbeatable if he really wants to extend the record

[@Typhus-th6ud]

And then after the 505 is achieved people will be after 510 next and so on and so on so wtf is your point? Why are you even here why do you get suggestions for this stuff if you have no interest?

[@Typhus-th6ud]

​@@thestrongmanhistorianThor has never even pulled 500 in a real comp hell he hasn't even pulled 490

[@kucuser]

Ivan unfortunatley still does not learn his lesson. Lock out is not a problem for him as he can pull well above 500 kg from higher stance, its his leg drive and loosing hip position.

[@petershortland478]

Also he does these strange things like putting weights on middle of the bar doesn't use calibrated plates to get used it Hixxy just uses normal places no added height

[@Tom-oz8it]

You’re trying to teach a man who almost lifts 500kg how to do deadlifts lmao?

[@kucuser]

@@Tom-oz8it every body can still be learning, no matter what level they have. Hafthor took lessons from Jamal about conventional deadlift and they were above 100 kg apart. Its not about who is saying its about what he is saying.

[@happzy]

@@Tom-oz8it Almost is the operative word here. He's been trying to break 500 for years now to no avail by training the same way and ignoring his weakness. Ivan also ignores his trainer which further validates what @kucuser said.

[@TheSkinnay1]

⁠@@Tom-oz8itit’s hard not to play Monday morning QB with Makarov. Dude has been training for a single lift for over 5 years and on comp day he looks less convincing each time out. It’s very frustrating.

[@drae6984]

If they can peak nicely, maybe Ivan or Hicks have a shot. That said, none of them have been able to replicate a pull as impressive as Thor's 470 in training leading up to his 501 pull.

[@e.c.9468]

Same conclusion based on Eddie's 465 Kg before 500 WR

[@neal520]

hicks has

[@Wxpt1010]

@@neal520When?

[@RenaxTM91]

When Thor pulled 501 he had much more in the tank,No way he would have failed that lift with 505 on the bar. But pulling exactly 1kg more than Eddie was the whole point.

[@anymous1485]

Ivan has already tried at least 3 times and failed. Hicksy has a good chance - but I haven't seen any training videos from him for a long time. His last lift was 450kg for 2 and that was over a month ago. Of the two he is more likely to pull it.

[@Devou1s]

Personally I see Benni's 461 as my all time favourite max conventional deadlift, even tho a handfull of people have pulled more.

[@Shogunissiah]

461kg 🤔and the smoothest and unassisted and unrequited deadlift over a grand ⚡️

[@hg_10sm68]

Dodgy though. Not on calibrated plates & done at a backyard meet where everyone set untouchable new PRs. Never came close to it on calibrated plates

[@cisrael468]

I really want to see Hixxy pull it since he really seems like a nice guy and has had a rough year. I do think it’s very unlikely though and this is his last shot before thor puts it out of mortal reach forever

[@ethanholmes3036]

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.

[@william_f_beedle18]

It ain't happening. If you want the record to be broken again, you need to get Hafthor there.

[@dave-oz1ni]

He only deadlifts in his mums garage with his buddies as judges

[@hans84_de]

It's a pity the King is not there, but I'm sure he will break it again even if anyone does it or fails at Vegas. Wishing all good luck, but Hafþór is the King.

[@gotzvonunentberlichingen1452]

Also das hat Nirmal echt gut durchgesetzt, dass das jetzt Hafthors neuer Spitzname ist.

[@maxa8838]

And it's a shame deadlift GOAT retired 2017... But yes, would be great to have Thor also there 💪🏻👌🏻 No doubt he will lift someday again 500+ 👍🏻 Makarov yet again looks great before competition 👌🏻

[@william_f_beedle18]

It won't happen at Vegas. Just a matter of when and where organizers will get it arranged for Hafthor.

[@mgu-vx4ib]

@@maxa8838 Did Benni retire in 2017? Or are you talking about the Eddie "who did it in a so called competition where he called all the shots, on home soil, an hour from home, own bed, own crowd, own enviroment, own bar, own platform, own weights, determined the timing, determined the weight jumps and still didn't lock it out properly after having envisioned his kids being trapped under a bus and almost dying in a puddle of blood" Hall?

Just because worlds strongest man says it is not official doesn't mean you don't hold the world record they don't have exclusivity so the reality is the new world record is 512 K

[@tammynewman2093]

It should say world assisted deadlift record, world strongman deadlift record, or non-raw record. Straps were the game changer.

[@mgu-vx4ib]

Not happening for any of these men, ever. People don't realize how being able to pull 490kg isn't close to pulling 500kg+ unless it's quite comfortable. It's not just 10kg. It's 490+10kg. That's another mountain to climb. Thor obviously has a shot. Nobody else who's currently known to be working towards the 500+ is gonna do it, unfortunately.

[@DavidThaDwarf]

It’s just another 10kg. Mitch hooper spoke about it recently

[@davidkosiba624]

​@@DavidThaDwarfMitch's Best deadlift is like what 475? In a suit? He is not the position to talk about 500kg deadlifts lol , 475 and 500 are very far apart

Makarov pulled 512kg from 11 inches? And his lockout wasn’t bad Maybe he’ll break 2 records

[@dannywielink5200]

I hope hixxy will pull it. That 465 pull didn't look as comfortable as i would hope it would. But if anyone beside Thor has a change its him. 💪

[@curvinh6289]

Ivan always hyping with them stupid block pulls , then failing in comp like always

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

Very impressive, but I have the feeling he won't be able to do 505 from the floor in comp.

[@sagebauer1077]

Monstorous weight but man some of the lockouts look iffy to me. Soft knees and hips everyone. I know its not powerlifting standards, but I dont want any controversy. Imo Rauno has by far the cleanest lockout

[@mrgaudy1954]

Is it just me or is Makarov’s technique really sloppy compared to other big pullers like Hicks and Rauno? His deadlifts look really uncontrolled and ugly even in the low 400’s, how is he going to manage 505?

[@BuJammy]

I'm calling it: No one is lifting 505 for at least half a decade, sad to say.

If anyone deserves this lift it's gotta be Ivan he's probably attempted it more tes than anyone!

[@combinemax]

Its the opposite, he doesn't learn from his mistakes and just keeps banging his head on the wall. If Sebastian Oreb, for example, was training him, he would have a solid chance

[@seoptcouk]

compare this to eddie halls 465kg before the 500kg. dont think anyone here has a chance

[@Fastindy777]

None of em :)

[@jamespython5147]

I don't get it. Two lifts of 450, so 500 shouldn't be a problem.

[@goatbearman514]

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.

[@splinter357d6]

I hope they’re just playing some mind games and have some better lifts they didn’t put out. If this is it then I don’t think anyone will get it. 465 needs to fly

[@mikemoore2791]

Does not matter a damn. Eddie Hall and his rapid fan boys wont accept it.

[@DMD82]

Poor Hicksy, all this training to keel over on the 470! He didn't even look comfortable pulling 425 which he did for 3 in training! Something has happened behind the scenes for this to happen, he was good for 480 the last 2 months! Peaked too early?

[@Typhus-th6ud]

Makarov hasnt been training for a big deadlift has he thought he was doing strict press

Just shows how big it was for Eddie to do it 9?.. years ago, nearly a decade unbeaten in competition, Hicks doesn't seem to be using mats or anything raised for his prep in this vid, so Hicks for me is the one with the chance, and really hoping for it to go right for him.

Yet, still manages to be one of the worst when pulling 500+ off the ground. A lot of strongmen are good at block pulls, this isn't as impressive as people think. Look at Rauno's 540 kg block lift, which is close to this height.

[@jaku8513]

Is there not a real about gripping the bar? Some of these dudes are literally not holding onto the bar at all, not surprising none of them came close to 505 when they cheat the fuck out of training reps.

This is obvious watching the peaks. Hixxy's 465 looked rather slow and hitched up top, no way another 40 is in the tank. Ivan of course never learns and just goes balls out to HOPEFULLY get near 505. Do deficits, they were working before. Eddie made 465 look like a joke before his 500. None of these competitors are close to getting 505. Hicks may be able to get 485 or so if it was an option, same for Ivan. Rauno is also cooked. He's been injured in key places far too many times and still hasn't had a great peak yet coming back.
