The way the story goes with this one is that Ron walked into the gym on a Wednesday night (the max effort squat/deadlift night at both the old and new South Side) and was offered a dare. The dare was that he couldn't change shoes, put on a belt, and pull 725 lbs. without warming up. He accepted, of course, and this was the result.
This took place in 2002 I believe.
technically, thit is 736. those red olympic collars weight 11 pounds total. its weight on the bar!
