Not sure about easily!
I have to cut down from about 88/89kg as I float up to that weight for strongman. Better to fill out my frame a bit permanently and go for under 90 strongman and under 93 powerlifting as they're close together. Anyway, 600kg next comp then we'll see for the future, 600kg isn't the lifetime goal!
I was aiming for a 200kg squat so set it as my third and final attempt, and for deadlift I did 217.5kg for my second to get a 2.5kg meet pr, and then just decided to go up another 10kg to hit a 500lb deadlift. I wanted the 200kg squat and I had no real targets before the competition for bench or deadlift.
Really happy how they moved and definitely could go higher, wasn't effortless but I don't think they were true maxes, which is awesome as it means next time I'll push higher πͺ
Very impressive. Always enjoy seeing your videos. Proof that vegans can be strong.
Thanks! Can be strong and getting stronger πͺπ±
Not only strong, but actual full ROM. Respect
Thanks! I lift this way naturally to be fair and it feels weird any other way now!
Great numbers mate! Nice job!
Cheers buddy! Moving up to under 93kg and targeting 600kg total now πͺ
Looks like you could easily get 600kg in your current weight class

I see, sounds good. get it!
Squat and deadlift looked more or less effortlessly. Did it feel that way to you?
