Powerlifting - Ed Coan - Total

[WZ912]

@spectrumconsciousnes OH! I understand now lol!. they are jealous and weak.

[keshav0312]

nice depth for a suited squat

[KTMONEY100]

@keshav0312 Yea Ed always used single ply gear at most, so it doesn't change your technique that much. His raw and suited squats were pretty much identical. He was also extremely strong raw, but didn't compete so much in it as the strongest of the strongest were all using single ply gear, and he had to beat them to be the strongest...which he did

[jaco1159]

haha 1000 pound good morning in the end there more like it. Insane!

[drmatt357]

Eddie RULES!!!!!

[gankzorzz]

YES THIS VIDEO IS BACK UP!!!

[Wiegieboard]

That looked like one hard squat. Ed is awesome.

[muzimuzi]

was his bench done suited? i'd be somewhat disapointed if it was heh

[muzimuzi]

his squat is almost an Olympic one lol

[andybolton]

The best ever/all time either way a ledgend

[Cragails]

Awesome !!! ... the greatest lifter ever !

The music/lyrics are very fitting , well done !

[grayfox3284]

its a deep squat too, very very impressive haha

[ericarmstrong1]

Deep? His chest was just about touching his thighs! I can't imagine how he stood back up. The guy is just about as much an icon as ever lifted a weight. Great video.

[BlackPhilosopher]

@ericarmstrong1

It was not enough for IPF. But for WPC/WPO i would say it was too deep )

[grayfox3284]

dude's strong.

[DimsonGT]

Ed is a fucking monster , living god of powerlifting , LOVE HIM! .

god damn what a power. BEAST

[aminoacids13]

the beast

[WesMantO0th]

Ed is a nice dude but whenever you see the face at 0:44, just get the fuck out of his way and watch him move some serious weight!

[robertinho123456]

His deadlift is raw and his squat is insane!

[museguest]

ed coan the living god of powerlifting !!!

no question...

[liampowerlifter]

the 5 foot 6 monster

[Matxaka300]

[SpainIsAJail]

[dbennett4]

'The game' by Motorhead

[ElPorteroBestia]

I have one thing to say:

Travis Mash, 2004 GNC Show of Strength.

2414 anyone? Yes, please.

:]]

[docsrocks]

Who?

[WZ912]

Ed Coan has been playing the Game for over 30 YEARS! Crushing the competition and setting new records. Forget that he's coming back. The fact that he's still ALIVE after all he's the abuse his body taken over decades is Amazing! To pump that much iron over the years, the man must be made of Steel Coan is Superman. He is the GAME! He is........the KING of KINGS! Great post.

[liampowerlifter]

you are right there sir lol

[wolfgangle]

Eddie is awesome but that music is unbelievably retarded

[Erikpc]

Eddie is awesome indeed. But whats up with the hostility at the music? Metal is a weightlifters music ;) Try it on the gym and you'll notice that you suddenly are 20% stronger :)

[WZ912]

20 %!! HELL 50 %!!!! Metal is the Music of Muscle Monsters

[WZ912]

Metal is the Music of Muscle Monsters THIS ROCKS!!!!

[alojebme]

ed coan died of steroid overdose

[jessxcr]

It will be my guess that you shall die of stupidity!

[alojebme]

now I will die while your mom is giving me a blowjob!

[jackbohlen]

even his so called weak lift, the bench press is

massive

[beauf22]

coan ed is dopped !!!

[oleiro]

Shall born the next powerlifter that will beat Ed!

THE BEST

[nigfufu]

Amazing raw powerlifer.

[jessxcr]

Sorry... but the only lift he does raw here is the deadlift. He's wearing a squat suit and wraps and a T-shirt over his bench shirt because its on ESPN.

[blutonybench]

He wore a bench shirt with a T-shirt over it. jessxcr is correct except that it was the USPF that forced the lifters to cover up a sponsor's logo. It was a vengeful move by the USPF because the sponsor had sued the USPF for contract breach. The USPF fabricated the espn story to try and cover their asses. Every other year before and after on espn you can see the sponsor's logo on the lifters. You can see the flapping duct tape they forced him to wear on his suit on the other lifts.

[nigfufu]

Hmmm, I didn't notice. I did notice his arms bunched up watching it again though. How much of his career did he lift suited?

[blutonybench]

As 99% of all powerlifters do he lifted equipped his whole career.

[nigfufu]

Oh...I guess it is pretty hard to last in sport without gear. Injuries and all. Ed was/is a pure beast anyway.

[blutonybench]

You got it, that's why.  Also don't forget as the song says he played the game, which is true Powerlifting. It's not soccer or ballet.
