Ed Coan 1996 380kg/837lb deadlift @ 110kg/242lb

[Ironbound95]

which idiot red lighted him, must be blind.

[sneakerfresh9]

good form

[dresendezz]

what the bloody hell!? what happened why he get a red!?!?!?!

[canvasguy]

I admire this dude so much he the best powerlifter ever...

[donthatejoerogan]

Some of you guys don't have a clue. Ed could lift more at 17 years old, 165 pounds, raw and drug free than the majority of you will ever dream of lifting in this life or the next 10. He wasn't the best because of drugs, he was the best because he was a genetic super freak with a work ethic you will never be able to comprehend.

[riopieboy]

He did roids? He's a pussy who took shortcuts.

[BombDonald]

Anyone know what the red light was for?

[xjusticex2013x]

Since when does Ed pull conventional?

[sammcl16890]

@xjusticex2013x He did, and mastered both.

[daaaavveeeee]

@xjusticex2013x I believe he started pulling conventional after a hamstring injury.

[siral000]

Notice the absence of lifting gear, if Ed would have converted to using squat suits and briefs etc to the degree possible, his totals could have potentially been 200-300lbs or more, or better. Straight up one of the good guys.

[jaco1159]

@siral000 not on the deadlift, its questionable what deadlifts suits even give. The overall world record deadlift right now is 1015 lbs by Benedikt Magnusson and it was done raw. The follow up is by Andy Bolton which was 1008 lbs which was done in a suit.

[Fleetmac16]

ed Coan the greatest!

[jarot09]

awesome

but why Ed change sumo technicue for conventional style?

in sumo he did 410kg in 1991

[cepoctb]

he injured his groin

[lift2live1]

because he get injuried in hips so he change for conventionnal.

he feel that something was wrong in hips on sumo because of injurie.

without injurie i think he could have done 420/430 at 242 in sumo.

[ravsandhu1]

AWESOME!

[entwisenva]

6KCals + 1 gallon raw whole milk per day.

[aFatGuyinaLittleCoat]

Coan is the best all around powerlifter ever... nobody can argue with that. If he wants to take steroids to each his own, more power too him. Raise the stakes high enough and people will do anything to get an edge. All that aside on a personal level I agree with Mark Rippetoe "...steroids are for pussies..."

[gggrggg]

if you want to compete "natural" then by all means go for it and good for you.. but don't u fucking dare talk shit about ed coan.. take all the steroids you want and NONE of you would ever compare to him.. fuckin dumbcunts..

[EagleEye803]

@gggrggg nothings impossible maybe one day somebody will beat him but he does still deserve respect

[canvasguy]

@gggrggg Very true he one of the greatest powerlifters of all time...

[Meni69]

steroids? yup, and? there are 10,000s taking juice, and can't do 80% of what he did.

so he failed a test? and Bonds passes

[buybulkwhey]

@Meni69 EXACTLY!!!! The dude is still a freak and a pro!

[buybulkwhey]

@Meni69 EXACTLY!!!

[Mahoney735]

@Meni69 fuck 80% no one can do what he did

[mgriff2]

Yeah tell me about it, apparently Ed doesn't ever train his ass off, or work hard at anything, he just sits back and takes the gear and pulls over 800lbs LMAO. I love the 'Natural' athletes that take every product they can get away with, of course it is all 'Natural' and found directly in the food you eat LMAO

[athletesnightmare]

Funny how these guys will never accomplish anything themselves...too busy talking shit on youtube LOL. Coan is a beast plain and simple.

[umbertolyo]

STERIODS and he ruined his life for too many steroid positive tests. They call him "test positive ed".

[DrugFreeAthletes]

There are much larger meets in the US with much better lifters that are DRUG FREE. Ed Coan is DRUG CHEAT plain and simple. The USAPL barred him from competing after the IPF banned him for life. When it was announced that ED Coan would be barred everyone stood up and gave a STANDING OVATION. ED COAN IS A PARIAH.

[sr19]

they all take steroids. just deal with it

[FatalBazuka]

And along with that comes a whole lotta hard work which you wouldnt even know about

[sr19]

are you tring to say that they dont take steroids? and why do you think that i am one of those people who thinks that steroids make you strong even when sitting on your ass? dont you dare make the assumption that i dont know what i am talking about, and dont even try and tell me that 99.9% of strength athletes arent on roids. ed coan was banned from competition because of it.

[mrvanman]

get back to your council estate you piece of shit

[sr19]

a) are you actually trying to suggest that ed never took steroids? or that it is rare for elite powerlifters to take steroids? how naive

b) dont pretend to know me, it just makes you looks like a total jackass.

[stitch462]

stfu you faggots

[tugacacau]

STEROIDS

[WABWSM]

why do you say something so stupid!?!? I bet you can't floor DL 400 or even 300!
