2,221 lb Raw Total by Stan Efferding "Rhino" (275) beats Konstantin Konstantinovs (308) 2,217

[mikefish247]

I want to get a total like that just so flex wheeler will hug me.

[enormousmaggot]

Yeah, but KK is Russian. That makes him more awesome than you.

[dchen345]

Vascular veins. Disgusting.

[some5672]

@dchen345 i think they look pretty epic.

by the way, saying "vascular veins" is like saying "wet water"

[dchen345]

@some5672 I meant to say varicose veins. Veins popping out is not a good thing.

[random1ty]

LOL even his head is vascular

[nighthawk42ht]

Hahahaha, Flex: "Ben who?!"

[dollzandpinz]

Great achievement but the title is a lie. Konstantinovs total 1006kg(2217lb)total, was done at128kg (281.6lb)BW. Either way your both great athletes, your stronger in the bench but Konstantinovs deadlift is practically unbeatable. Also because of your height you have an advantage in the squat and a slight one in the bench, but there really is nothing in it. whats 4lbs compared to over 2200?

[PilarskysPlayhouse69]

Great power wow. looks dirty but im hoping hes a natural. nonethelesss very impressive total

[RuggerFlail]

@PilarskysPlayhouse69 I hope you aren't that naive... Everyone at this level of PL is on gear. Everyone. No question. That simple.

[foxilicouse]

gotta say i love the zebra stripe belt it kills me every time

[Truman221]

juan laughs the first time but he starts to get offended as he goes lol

[ROB6ZOMBIE666]

You said he didnt use knee wraps on the squat. BUT HE DID

[jimmcd1234]

@ROB6ZOMBIE666 He did in 2009 but not in 2011. Click that link on the screen to watch the most recent meet video.

[PcostaDaddy]

this guy is a beast no bench shirt madd props

[chijkd21]

flex wheeler cameo

[mikesbbody]

Stan is the Man! 

[walemult]

is it me or does this guy have no traps?

[dlinegarcia60]

steriods much. thats okay i want to juice too.

[215Dave215]

@dlinegarcia60 That's okay because even if you took all the juice in the world you wouldn't be moving a quarter of this weight, pussy.

[xMasterTerrax]

Was that 25 KG. or 25 pounds, the Red Plates. It said 25, but idk.

[jimmcd1234]

@xMasterTerrax Scroll down at little. That question has been answered. 

[mrcreasy213]

@xMasterTerrax 25kg is 55lbs

[landreev]

of course they are kilos

[iKrackeD]

Don't get me wrong I'm not bashing this guy at all, but shouldn't anyone be able to dead lift more than they squat?

[jimmcd1234]

@iKrackeD Stan's not "anyone."

[iKrackeD]

@jimmcd1234 I can understand that. But usually you should be able to deadlift more than you squat, because your back is stronger with pulling up than staying straight with resistance on top. But this guys a beast nonetheless. As I said.

[SmexyPC]

@iKrackeD yeah for someone who is perfectly proportional

[iKrackeD]

@SmexyPC I suppose.

[713lg305]

he actually only did a total of 2220 lbs but credit is definately due here

[jimmcd1234]

@713lg305 No, it's 2221 with the kilo rounding but he has beaten this total now anyway.

[713lg305]

@jimmcd1234 not bein rude or anything but i just added the lbs on a calculator and it came out to be 2220 total cuz only if the deadlift or bench or squat was 1lb heavier then we wouldnt be having this discussion

[jimmcd1234]

@713lg305 The meet was run in kilos...not pounds. 372.5 kilos plus 275 kilos plus 360 kilos is 1007.5 kilos. Convert to pounds by multiplying by 2.2046 and you get 2,221.135 or 2,221 lbs.

[713lg305]

@jimmcd1234 ok now i get it my bad thanks for the info man love the vid

[jimmcd1234]

@713lg305 No worries man and thanks. It wasn't impossible that we had fucked it up but I was pretty sure we would have noticed it before now. lol

[blueviper42]

that's straight up american muscle

[PrismaCry]

Given he lift 2221lb raw, how much can he lift with full option?

May be we could add the spotter on the bar and he throw both away =_='

[ewnjr]

stinky!!

[jimmcd1234]

@ewnjr Think you mean "Smelly"

[ewnjr]

@jimmcd1234 oh ya lol ur right

[mrlatino187]

whats the length of the knee wraps that are legal 2.0m or 2.5m?

[6reevesy9]

@mrlatino187 2

[jimmcd1234]

@mrlatino187 2.5

[joemcbobinite]

wow listen to that gay ass music in the background,rhino has to be pissed about that wimpy ass shit. thats not work out music thats girly music. but in all honesty that music does not belong in a gym.i got nothin agaisnt it, just dont put it in the gym place.

[jimmcd1234]

@joemcbobinite Feel free to skip commenting on the lifting at all.

[joemcbobinite]

@jimmcd1234 dude you know its great, we all know its great. people want to be like you. i want to lift like you.at least im not one of the people saying "hes using wraps, bel,t blah, blah".meant no disrespect to your lifting at all. and i was only talking about the song that was in the background during the locker room scene in the beginning, disturbed and such isnt wimpy.

[jimmcd1234]

@joemcbobinite For the record, I'm not Stan but Stan is a friend of mine and I put this together for him. "Go to Church" is a song that he picked for another video that we did and so it was played for him at the meet. The Disturbed song is one we play in the gym pretty often. Stan is pretty much a heavy metal guy but I can tell you that while he's lifting in a meet, the music is not is biggest concern. He doesn't need everything to be perfect to lift well.

[joemcbobinite]

@jimmcd1234 ah, i thought the account was shared by him and a few dudes. but i dont think go to church is the song i was thinkin bout lol, you talkin bout the one by ice cube? eh anyway what is his main motivation? how does he get in the zone? or is he just in beast mode 24/7?

[jimmcd1234]

@joemcbobinite I know he's working on making a DVD that answers some of those questions. I can tell you that he's very focused on accomplishing whatever goals he sets for himself. That seems to be all it takes for him. When it's go time, he's always ready.

[joemcbobinite]

@jimmcd1234 awesome! i plan on buying that then. thank you. hes my favorite powerlifter, has my favorite body of them all

[300CtheWall]

jimmcd1234 is there vid of the new WR total he jus pulled??

[Psych1990]

This might be classified as "RAW" in whatever federation Stan is competing in, but since the conditions aren't the same you can't compare this to konstantinovs performerance (which really is 100% raw) .

[pisswizzard]

@Psych1990 See his recent vid where he totals 5 pounds MORE without any knee wraps, just so we can 'compare' the two and prove that Stan is stronger.

[Psych1990]

@pisswizzard That's possible, I havn't seen the video you are referring to. But this video title is still misleading.

[asborisov1]

H0W IS THIS RAW. HE'S WEARING A BELT, KNEE WRAPS, AND A SUIT. WTF. K0NSTANIE DID HIS WITH SUIT,BELT,0R WRAPS.

[jimmcd1234]

@asborisov1 He's not wearing a suit.

[landingtime4u]

is that one of the bell brothers weighing him in from the documentary bigger faster stronger?also in what federation is knee wraps considered not raw? I wanna know so i stay away from stupidity as such lol

[jimmcd1234]

@landingtime4u Several feds allow knee wraps for raw.

[muzimuzi]

you know you're a strong bencher when u bench ur BW number in KG (275KG - 275 pound BW) =P

[schapadap]

4:04 looks like scarface sneezed on his back

[JuventusAAR]

wtf is flex wheeler doing here

[davidealessio]

anadrol what? xD

[TheRandomSanta]

holy shit you are ripped

[Pretending2Bsmart]

Does anyone else see Barry Bonds at 03:29 ???

[TurkishHardcore]

Flex Wheeler?

[powerlifterbashir]

its mark bell!!!!



[SmexyPC]

fucking brute.

[InFlamesAddictive]

Imagine putting together all the world records into 1 total ^^

[funkyassdeejay]

dude! he couLd hav had a bigger deadLift! he squated 821! he proLLy couLd have hit the dead in the higher 800's!!!

[ProudConservative47]

got to meet stan last weekend, great dude

[nabhanda]

two things, one, he is absolutely the strongest bodybuilder in the world, two, K is probably still a stronger plifter than him. 821 squat with knee bands and a belt, compared to k's 705 without a belt or wraps is probably a push, stan puts up 606 in the bench with a belt while k puts up 584 without one, and the deadlift k kills him with an 881 compared to stan's 793, but k missed his 950, if you add that to his total, and take away some from stan's due to wraps and belt and k is likely stronger

[steriods4champions]

@nabhanda a belt on bench wont put the max up 22 lbs bro. same thing with squat. you think using knee wraps on squat can push the max up nearly 100 pounds? no way. if they both were completely raw no belt nothing, stan would still beat him

[co2min21]

he dreaming on IFBB :))

[rctriplefresh5]

kons isnt a 308,and he doesnt use wraps

[Rodintube]

Kontantin Konstantinov beats him, anytime, anywhere.

[Punk4Life408]

@Rodintube thats funny because stan beat konstantin all time record 

[asborisov1]

@Rodintube this

[shyic]

I wanna have his babies, he's superhuman!

[Metalabad]

I wish I had super motivatiing friends like him when I lift :(

[DOEBOY546]

What's the Disturbed song during Stan's squat?

[PandizMusic]

@DOEBOY546 Defay.

[sanitariumsixString]

i love the haters on these, lets any one posting on this vid. touch stan's #'s use whatever "crutch" you want you will lose 

[martin1234512345]

stan is the shit don't get me wrong. but james henderson is still my favorite. he can bench 600 raw, drug free, with ease.

[6reevesy9]

@martin1234512345 drug free, shutup. you cant be drug free at any high competing level

[TheRebornHalo3]

HAHA they remind me of those weight lifters out of king of the hill.

[Dayga]

Deadlift is the best exercise to measure total body power because you can't cheat it with a power suit, shirt, and all that other nonsense. I've personally seen Konstantinov pull 970 in training, which was superhuman. Respect to "Rhino", but he's not in that league.

[UrizenTheNegator]

@Dayga You haven't seen KOnstantinovs pulling 970 in training, you're a fucking liar. Shut the fuck up before I bludgeon you to death!

[tino190]

@DioneLSRP you must be a faggot haha.

[yonkersfugitive]

whats with all the comments saying its not raw with knee wraps??

Knee wraps are there to prevent injury, not assist in lifting the weight. Same thing with a belt.

[slimjamie1991]

damn that squat was crazy explosive.

[tatnrf001]

man i wanna see this guy next to jay cutler. this guy is a beast

[muzimuzi]

is that an old video? i thought his DL was around 840+-

[xtherealtm]

That spotter at bench is one piece of fucking motivation

[josephz82]

Pagliaccio. He ave to do this lift in stage, it's easy be strong in the gym.

[Marlowann]

That was a damn good squat.

[funkyassdeejay]

1008lbs w/ a suit and 948 w/o a suit.

[wvjon75]

The squat isn't raw. he has knee wraps

[jimmcd1234]

@wvjon75 IT'S RAW IN THIS FEDERATION!!!!!! How many fucking times do I have to make the same comment!

[skata123456789456123]

@jimmcd1234 dont actually care, still not really raw...

[jimmcd1234]

@skata123456789456123 As I said, it's raw in this federation. No other definition of raw really matters in this context.

[1shutupandlift6]

@jimmcd1234 i know stan is a world class powerlifter and i really respect the guy cuz he's a beast but just because this federation considers the use of knee wraps "raw" doesn't mean it's a fair comparison to other federations that define "raw" with less equipment. .

[1shutupandlift6]

@jimmcd1234 I'm certainly not belittling his strength but ignoring the obvious support from equipment such as knees wraps in a squat, is ignorant. Not saying his wraps are crutch, but to say that this is an all time "raw" record across all federations is just unfair

[jimmcd1234]

@1shutupandlift6 It's Stan's claim. Take it up with him if you have a problem. Personally I couldn't give a shit one way or another about knee wraps.

[dbennett4]

@1shutupandlift6 He makes up for the assistance from the wraps by being extra awesome. It's fair.

[spidanez]

@1shutupandlift6 can you do better? thought so... because you arent anywhere on the top powerlifter boards.

[EvilSecondTwin]

@1shutupandlift6

Dude, your own username implies to "shut up and lift!" What is this bitching that you're bitching like a litttle bitch about!? Seriously, you must suck a mean dick!

[1shutupandlift6]

@EvilSecondTwin lol

[startingover101]

@jimmcd1234 wtf you just blew my mind on that squat .............

[mir7880]

@skata123456789456123 uhh you ever tried knee wraps they definantly dont help you get up weight ive used them forever they just prevent injury

[skata123456789456123]

@mir7880 yes, i still use them they give me about 20lbs in my 5RM...knee sleeves dont help, knee wraps help...

[tino190]

@skata123456789456123 you sound like my retarded cousin. yeah its raw motherfucker. you must not know shit about powerlifting

[tastefulphrasing]

@skata123456789456123 Shut the fuck up.

[amarone1956]

@skata123456789456123 I agree!

[Eningmea62]

@wvjon75 Raw Means Knee wraps and Belt are allowed, NO SUIT!

[tino190]

@wvjon75 thats still raw retard.

[Lowtrousers]

Dear God...

[jdkaorned1]

lol @ 2:55 

[1JayCutlerFan1]

821 pound RAW squat... is that a world record?

606 bench at 6 foot 1 is just incredible

[SpawnPirate]

whts the belt do?

[MetalCamelChannel]

@steveninthematrix Johnny too scared, Ben too weak, Stan won big time. I guess that sums it up.

[GSP9090]

Ben who?!?

[ItalianWarrior777]

Holy shit!

[lucianonicacio]

what he said in 3:17

[flyingv16]

lee preist would rock this fucker

[dlinechamp78]

WOW Mark sure got fat he looked bulky back then.His wife wanted him to stop but i bet she would rather have him muscular then fat.

[bigtimanugga]

total might have beat Konstantin but Konstantin has a 947 raw deadlift...just sayin

[kuniyoshi1]

Did no one notice that the squat was not completely raw?

[dt76028]

Where can I find a up to date rankings of raw powerlifters?

[JBuchanan165]

stan is the man...he talks soo much sh*t but backs it up

[zekeg]

@JBuchanan165 then its not consider shit talking he talks the truth

[kingbull20]

Flex Wheeler is such a queer

[carloscazares13]

Jesus, I could feel the testosterone coming out my screem after he screamed "BAR'S LOADED!!!" gjdm

[Fabio2324]

Lets GO STAN WHITE POWER THIS O,

Fuck that nigger,.

[jimmcd1234]

@DioneLSRP Sounds like something you have experience with.

[trainer2386]

F*&kin Hell!!  He made that bench press look effortless!! Damn!!

[SteezyTre]

o god that guy at 2:53 has THE SAGGIEST MAN TITS ever

[aneviis]

Ronnie did this shit while he was in contest prep.. beast !

[bunnylow40]

@aneviis Ronnie actually used a suit when he squatted 800 pounds dumbass, Rhino would do 800 5 times easy if he was wearing suit and Ronnie's bench isn't even close to the Rhino's but Ronnie does have a better deadlift but Rhino also pulled his right hamstring on his first squat attempt of 850....

[christian7750]

That's my Uncle Stan!!! World record holder!

[tooloocrew]

That fucking squat made me go crazy, I couldn't believe the depth! It was alot closer than regular power lifting squating. If anyone could correct me?

[str94100]

anyone compare that deadlift to Konstantinovs 939 no belt lift?

[PANClifter]

o he looked like he had 20-30 more lbs on the bench

[kwezeltjuh1]

nothing more to say then , The Rhino is a goddam beast ;D

[stormus08]

Very solid!! I still prefer Konstantinovs; He WILL have the deadlift record again one day. As for my favorite lifter ... has to be Matt Kroc... Insane strength in just about everything.

[tino190]

@swaapo haha your comment cracked me up but its true

[krizben]

great great video

[krizben]

What does he say/yell at 3:17? :)

[mycoolm3]

@krizben bars loaded

[tdheoembaesl]

@krizben Bar's loaded.

[cridgel]

flex wheeler looks so different now that he is "human" again

[Imbabazko]

wraps dont increase your bench like a board or shirt would do .idiots

[muzimuzi]

how his total is higher than konsta if theres a video of konsta doing like 900 pound deadlift? maybe his squat and bench are low?

[jimmcd1234]

@muzimuzi The title was correct at the time the video was posted.

[1JayCutlerFan1]

@jimmcd1234 Konstantin has a 939 lb raw deadlift but does Stan still have a higher three lift total? Cause I know Stan has a better bench and squat...

[b0ss6769]

holly crap i dont wanna get face 2 face wit dat guy.

damn superman in real life.! :D

[xswijnji]

@b0ss6769 dude shut the fuck up gawd

[BRETZERR]

I love how Stan covered forgetting the guy's name at the beginning....ha, ha....smooth...

[paintballerx123]

you are not better than KK....he doesn't use knee wraps like you

[stanefferding]

@paintballerx123 Sorry to disappoint bigs but check the vid of KK's 2217, google powerlifting watch Konstantin 2217. Those are knee wraps he's wearing. It's cool, KK's a great lifter, never said I was better than him, but I do have a higher total ... for now.

[johnnyu3]

damn i can only bench 100 lb dumbells for 8 reps. I really need to find some roids

[finalresistance]

What is the name of the disturbed songs during the first squat?

[wildanS]

@finalresistance

Deify

[Zombiegirl2007]

ewwwwww hus vains are sticking out everwhere gross

[Eisenbieger1986]

Knee Wraps are not raw.

Konstantinovs only used a belt for his total.

Konstantinovs > Efferding

[sammcl16890]

@Eisenbieger1986 Wraps are not the be all and end all for the squat, but I'm sure Konstantin could've added more than 4lbs to his total with wraps ;)

[stanefferding]

@sammcl16890 KK wore knee wraps when he did his 2217, check the vid on powerlifting watch.com. It's apples for apples. KK has a monster deadlift and I beat him on bench and squat. It's close. That's what makes it fun.

[sammcl16890]

@stanefferding I'm sorry, I was misinformed. I wasn't trying to take anything away from you. Your lifts are fantastic, I hope one day I can come somewhere relatively close to where you are now. Thanks for the response, it's nice to have a communal vibe even at the top level in a sport.

[physicsno1]

black guy with hat is brain dead. just repeats what flex n stan are saying. "Ben who? I don't know who that is?" 3:30

[puttter]

Doesn't Konstantin Konstantinovs compete drug free?
