New Deadlifting Record at the Arnold

Zydrunas Savickas did an 1110lb deadlift at the Arnold

Video???

Regular plates or those tires or whatever they do?

It was a combination of tires and plates… I don’t have a video but I’m positive one will be up soon.

So…cool?

It was awesome… I think he could have even hit 1150lbs.

Droopy eyed armless children can deadlift 1110 with tires…

Tires = a pit crew record, not a dead lift record.

So misleading…

You can see the lift a bit better in this vid, looked easy!

kinda sucky vid really

??

This was more impressive:

With bar flex the lift, where the weight leaves the floor, basically starts at the knees. So, it is analogous to an 1100lb rack pull, kinda.

Even then it takes a lot of strength to pull/bend the bar up to your knees like that.

Disappointed because at first I thought Savickas had pulled a WR in the real deadlift. That doesn’t feel too unlikely actually, he’s a good deadlifter.

I love how the clips pop off.

Can we get this thread bumped to the Strongman forum? Theres no tires in powerlifting bud.

Who gives a shit? I believe you’re looking for the Strongman forum.
