from this angle, depth looks questionable but when it comes down to it, you can't really tell unless it's from a side angle.

I would say lower beitch ALOT lower if that was my workout partner.... Actually if he was my partner I would say that, then

Yeah hard to tell because of his quad size. Is it a below 90 at the knee or do your Hams just have to break the 90?

I am assuming the video is from a meet and not a training lift so if he got 3 white lights on it than it is a legal lift. The few powerlifters I train compete in the USAPL and that would not have been legal.........However every organization is different. Still impressive regardless!

IPF i believe. it got 3 whites.

Damn impressive.

Doesn't even look close, but I would like to short 1200+, 3 white lights are 3 white lights, just depends on the judges, fed etc.

Got to agree with you but like you said it goes in the books as a good lift

Impressive regardless of 3 whites or not, it was damn close.
My experience with the IPA - the smaller lifters got careful scrutiny on their lifts, but once the big boys started things tended to get a little, let's say, liberal.

i hear mike is one of those guys that when he gets redlighted, he screams at the judges, thereby getting a whitelight next time around. supposedly why he doesn't compete at the more serious events with the big boys. lots of arguments going on amongst the boards about this, but the general consensus is clear, wasn't low enough.

still i gotta say, 1220lbs is an assload of weight.

LCSULLA · 04-12-2006, 05:43 PM

The guys a monster, no doubt about it. He used to post at gotfina.com back in the day and people were always on him about his lifts being "not legit".

guyfromkop2 · 04-12-2006, 11:45 PM

he's one of the biggest human beings i've ever seen close up. an absolute monster.

and he was the first guy who squatted 1200, he actually got so much scrutiny for that one he left powerlifting for a while and did strongman comps.

I would be more impressed to see 1100 or even 1000 lbs. to slightly below parallel.

He is wearing a squat suit right?

It is impressive though to see him simply support all that weight without collapsing.
