Take a look at Valentin Dikul videos who at age 53-60 could beat these powerlifters and without any spotters. His videos speak for them selves. 460 k squat- no spotter, 260k raw bench - no spotter and a 460 deadlift. Dikul is the world's strongest - drug free athlete.
Dikul has a very long history of "strong man" feats. He is also the world record holder in steel ball juggling and the formidable "one ton" walk of ten feet. No other human has done this. His remarkable WR back squat -walking it backwards after its completion has never been equalled. The no spotter bench of 260 is remarkahle .I do not believe that this man ever took drugs. He is a remarkable strong man who is very similar to the great Canadian Louis Cyr.
I saw the video of his ,,460" kg deadlift and it MUST be a fake. Why? Because he does not use any gear (I mean a deadlift suit, wraps straps or anything). If he really did this there would be someone on the fucking planet (we got over 6 billion people!) who did nearly as much as he did. The only one I found is Andy Bolton, and he does almost 450 kg deadlift with the best deadlift suit on earth + he couldn't lock it out fully. Dikul is a FAKE.
Magnusson lifts a 1023 lb deadlift without any straps either . Dikul "juggles" 70 - 80 pound steel balls like they are tennis balls. . He walked out and walked back a 1000 pound squat with no spotters. That is not fake. His bench press - raw- was without a spotter too. What he has shown is his confidence in his enormous strength.When Louis Cyr grabbed a 250 db and raised it overhead , held it in his hand for a minute or two, then raised it over head again, nobody believed what they saw .
No doubt the best competition powerlifting style squat i have ever seen. Great depth with a sickening weight. Absolutely fantastic in comparison to those claiming 500 kg+ squats who get absolutely no depth with a shit load of assistive equiptment- and who don't even walk out with the weight (WPO).
I don't know about all that on depth and assistive gear. Strong squat is a strong squat in raw or equipped, single or double, or unlimited ply powerlifting. People never take into account just how much pressure 1200 pounds on your back is- in the words of, I believe, Louie Simmons or Jim Wendler, "Can you even unrack it?"
Great lift none of that 12 ply suits with 6 ply briefs and hips no where near legal, thats real lifting, siders, henry, great squatters doing REAL SQUATS...
any professional sport has rampant steroid use. there's simply no way to compete without it, they're all at a super-human level. there are steroids now that flush out of your system in 48 hours. there ain't shit to do about it hah, it just sucks because it means if you want to be a pro, at some point youre probably going to have to do it.
Well, if they chose to do that in a tested federation, they have no morals, and deserve no credit or fame. Drugged lifters should lift in WPO or other federations. I can understand some lifters take medicines, but then they should be upfront about it and not try to compete with natural lifters. I'm natural for life, and I do never intend to become a professional. Sacrificing truth and moral for gold medals are the true sign of a real loser.
look. i'm against steroids in competition. i'm simply saying that to attain the level of athleticism that most of these people have you need to enhance yourself. if you took away all the steroids they'd still be competing at a very high and very impressive level. to compete here, steroids won't do jack shit unless you have phenomenal genetics, and have serious dedication. good on you for being natural, though.
And good on you for discussing in a civilized manner. That is not always the case for everyone in these kind of discussions. Unfortunately what you say is true, but there are forces that work to change it. :) Have a good day!
it would really be best if people just stopped using steroids. you can't make them do it, though...to even have a chance of competing in the NFL players are juicing as soon as they go into college...several of my friends on the football team when we were in high school were already juicing like crazy...everybody's at this superhuman level and nobody can get to it anymore without steroids. they're all strong and fast and beasts but its just ridiculous.
But to be on topic a bit more, this is indeed a fucking incredible squat and probably one of the strongest squats in the world today.

We in Russia lift like that always, it helps you feel tighter, and helps bend your back.
lutonmale1983, I absolutely agree, those people don't get recognized in international competitions, only inside North America.

And notice, they do not use crazy 3 layer gear like WPO. And not nearly as much steroids.

there are many lifters suspended each year for steroid use in the ipf, and those are just the top of the iceberg. same for weightlifting..
