Pound for pound, one of the strongest humans to ever breathe

[@mac5917]

Is there anyone better at all?🤔

[@daepicnass7799]

@@mac5917 ed coan is up for debate

[@micskra]

No bullshit lifts either. Mixed grip conventional, unquestionable squat depth, no insane arch or max grip width on bench. That's what makes him so insane to me. Just undeniable brute strength

[@catedoge3206]

@@micskra the thing is, if he can do lowbar, have bench arch, and sumo, he would. He said it himself that he can't do those. But yes, hella impressive even if he's not the most gifted in the leverage department!!!

[@FrancoCT15]

What I love the most is that hes around 5;9 - 5'10 and does conventional deadlift. Huge Respect

[@krossxeye660]

relatively very tall for a 90 kg lifter. Even in the IPF when he was an 83 he looked like a giraffe facing off against the likes of Brett Gibbs

[@MirNovichok]

That's because it's his strongest variation. It's not as if he could pull more with sumo 😂

[@hamastrength]

best powerlifter in my opinion

[@BasementBrandon]

John Haack, He Protec but He Also Attac

[@Professional.Bro.777]

I always remember when i got into lifting i used to see Animal ads with all these big dudes. This brand was literally stuck in my head

[@RbgBennett]

Animal pak used to have the sickest ads. Definitely captured the culture of the era.

[@jobenmcquaid6842]

This is definitely the most I’ve ever heard him speak. The guy is impressive to say the least

[@Mr.Wick88]

Love Animal Awesome company full of top level Legends Congrats on joining Animal Family

[@daggersdown]

the Animal cage was made for this man!

[@grizzmedia608]

This is so awesome. He use to come to the Animal Barbell Club events I use to organize at Madtown Fitness.

[@Egoliftdaily]

He grew up in a dairy farm? He has that legendary farmer strength in him.

[@Justmyopinion761]

Coan haack and Mike bridges. All time GOATS.

[@doug2078]

Seems like a good guy !! 💪 Stay Strong !!!

[@Jspore-ip5rk]

"I'm an animal plus I'm sick somebody take me to the vet" describes this dude

[@EchoEcho-q4r]

I would love to see this freak break records at 240lbs

[@thirst-to-be-awaken]

love this guy

[@omarazami7377]

Dude I love his impeccable high bar squat @2:23 . God dammit perfection.

[@Janoy_Cresva]

GOAT

[@BBCknews]

Yea bro

[@gabeporges9288]

This is a good pick up.

[@chrisbfreelance]

Dairy Farm childhood, youth advantage.

[@catedoge3206]

certified BEAST.

[@MandyR0116]

Impressive!

[@srouse39]

I have Ed Coan as #1 but John Haack definitely a close 2nd . Ed to me was more impressive as the bars were a lot stiffer with little to no flex compared to today’s. JH still incredibly impressive.

[@BUFFALO_cougar_slayer]

I love that a guy open about using shit is a sponsored athlete. We need more transparency up in this

[@francisngannouhaircut2616]

Nice. I love taking animal products they make good stuff

[@mild_flounder]

[@donniegrande9186]

[@russianroadman]

I AM HIS BIGGEST FAN

[@hamastrength]

training smart

[@Jimminityjabooboo]

Insanely strong mf

[@Eclipsecomet-k7c]

He left big boy crew?

[@BlackSeasGold]

Years ago

[@misledpoet]

Hopefully this doesn't affect his relationship with Andy and Iron Rebel

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

It's crazy that even the best powerlifter, who is also a sponsored athlete, still have to work regular job...

[@bryanscruggs7566]

He has stated he chooses to because he'd get bored.

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

@@bryanscruggs7566 Interesting. He could be a personal trainer, or something. Maybe he wants to do something away from the gym...

[@bryanscruggs7566]

@@ConnoisseurOfExistence He has a degree as a chemist. Pretty sure he makes damn good money doing what he's doing. Being a personal trainer is a hard living, it's more of a side job. (And yes also trains people)

[@KingKardashianKingKardashian]

No more Strength cartel😆

[@BlackSeasGold]

That was over years ago

[@craigslistreply6544]
