[@olyyz]

Those videos with Coan, Efferding, Duffin and Spoto are the best you made! More like that!

[@deepsquat600]

shoot..I was hoping it was a new one and Spoto was back

[@Jacare1973]

Still think Mike & Mark were a good combo in your videos

[@dragonrider197]

for someone called silent mike he sure does talk a lot lol

[@hulkman245]

Its meant as a joke. When he first came into the gym he was really quit. But after like a month he basicly could not stop talking.

[@dragonrider197]

[@hjhs5922]

Any chance of a comeback from Spoto ever?

Nice to see some flashbacks of Silent Mike! Great guy and amazing Twitch streamer now too.

Legend

[@1985Crystal]

Thanks for this Mark. Eric is missed I always watch yalls old videos and it inspires and motivates and helps me more than anything. Love yall. That end quote is something that goes thru my head hearing Eric say that everytime I lift.

[@jjslots4494]

Great video! Any idea what Eric is up to today?

[@BigPawTivald]

im an equipped lifter so im a full supporter of equipped but i wish you specified that he was RAW 722. dudes a freak and we love him.

[@harrygreb3457]

Has Dan Green done the power cast?

[@Eric06410]

Eric Spoto could be one of the best arm wrestlers of all time.

[@nachtwaandler]

I miss these old vids with silent mike.

[@asdfghjkldfghjhgcgyuigfyui9792]

the guy disappeared

[@TTVLefty]

Repost this comment if you want to see him do usa sumo

[@MrCeo1978buddy]

Put the juice aside he was born strong people need to understand that

[@johnolympia007]

Man we gotta get Silent Mike back to the powerproject for an episode!

[@erikec67]

Why the video after he got injured? I thought you were going to show the one when he first came to ST.

[@dude157]

He's already posted that.

[@BeeFZidePilloW]

Sam Smith where

[@supertraining06]

Erik Carlson showed that before

[@davidtill7292]

What happened to Spoto??

[@bigchris2939]

I knew he was referring to Eric before he said his name

[@pray4us688]

Mark Bell, we need a Spoto interview

[@thehalfnam4331]

He did the powercast go on Jim MacD’s old Channel

[@sethmuse4156]

PLEASE PLEASE BRING BACK ERIC

[@Jmack7861]

I still watch the backyard meet of the century videos all the time

[@1985Crystal]

Me too man

[@davidselawsky6620]

Too bad...Spoto was best bencher ever! Ease at which he did 600 pounds was astonishing. The body isnt made to continuously handle poundages like that. Not sure what hr is doing now.

[@ldc9399]

What's happened to spoto anyway?

[@andylineberger6795]

Blown Shoulder...i think he does some on line training

[@burning_buddha]

@@andylineberger6795 what did exactly happen to his shoulder?

[@andylineberger6795]

@@burning_buddha Not sure (rotator maybe) its jus what I heard...Its amazing to me what the shoulders can do with the kind of weight these pros bench.... My shoulder hurts and cant bench 405..

[@harleyzeth]

He died

[@easyeasely]

I was just thinking about seeing those yellow sleeves the other day. What was the thought behind those?

[@BenDovaAlready]

whats the gym called again!

[@ryanschuler9827]

Where is eric spoto is he okay?? Can we get an update video on da bull Spoto Mark?

[@asheranders901]

Crazy that’s it’ feels like this video was posted yesterday. Time flies

[@matthewdale2212]

You and silent mike should get back together. you guys are great together

[@kennygainzzz2185]

What happen to Eric was on a comeback then boom gone!?

[@kalamitygame4195]

I want mr spots to train me! I bet he can increase my sorry bench!!!

[@tatts_with_traps]

Shame about Eric shoulder problems, was a amazing benchpressesr he never recovered,, did he,, his body was damaged by arm wrestling before he started powerlifting

[@harrygreb3457]

Tom Gregory strongman/powerlifter I’m not exactly sure it was arm wrestling that ruined him, he admits that he lifted foolishly for a long time and doing that kind of weight...

[@thunderstruck1568]

Bring Eric Spoto back for another video!

[@andrewthebeast3716]

Someohe gotta shoot me a program lol. Should I do 5x5s for strength or what? Is 5x5 25 reps not enough or too much. Should I do something like 8x3/3x8.maybe 3x6 idk lol I need a program lol

[@barbaramartins5371]

Look into RTS or The Strength Athlete freebie programs. They're both 9-weeks each and a great place to start.

[@matthewwalker1623]

There's one thing that ruins this video .

[@sethmuse4156]

He hasn't even posted on instagram in a few years

[@weilijrfang7364]

Mike plays to much

[@kjellb8820]

Marks face on 11:06 is priceless

[@jaronvenable4241]

I just did spoto presses last night!

[@SniPinPenGuinz]

What happened to mike?

[@raensaeck]

WHere is spoto now????????

[@harrygreb3457]

I loved when Eric was in

[@X862go]

Where is spoto???

[@robvas]

GOAT

[@larsvanlaar2170]

Cool

[@anandnairkollam]

Silent Mike should really keep silent. Why does Bell even include this joker in these otherwise great vids.

[@brute633]

yo Mark get Eric Lilliebridge in there to train

[@jakeybball]

Mr Erectors I don’t think they are on good terms at all anymore. The Lilliebridges moved on and are now sponsored by Pioneer. Pretty sure they also think slingshot tried to steal their new wrap design.

[@MMikeFord]

Just my opinion? The giant dude is not doing full reps , like Mark ?

[@thechosenone8886]

A pvc pipe is plenty strong plastic has more tensile strength than steel...

[@jimmykennedy957]

Great video then and now....thanks mark

[@Hankola]

Mendy and Spoto could have done over 700. Too bad their luck ended with injuries.

[@pryme2013]

Is this a joke? They both did over 700 in competition.

[@Hankola]

@@pryme2013 Let me clarify. Raw, over 700, breaking the record now.

[@dude157]

@@Hankola They both did over 700 raw. Spoto did 722 and didn't do any equipped. Scot did 715 raw and I think 1030 equipped. The raw record is 738 by Kirill Sarychev

[@thechosenone8886]

@@Hankola spoto did over 700 raw...

[@Hankola]

Oh my God......Let me just rephrase my original statement. Too bad these guys can't come back and beat the current record. I know what the record is, and I know both of them haven't done over 700 in a long time.
