He was able to get the 400 lb tire flip over 5 times at a size of 5ft 9 and 217 lbs. He also held the car deadlift for 1 minute and 8 seconds.

I know he has dome a 600+ deadlift and squat in the gym.

If I can I will try to contact him and see if I can hook you guys up and you can ask him some questions.

Well the only comps i've done is one's between friends(mostly new to powerlifting),so it wasn't really that competitive

Thats pretty amazing of your friend who has done those event's,has he ever considered training for the WSM?

I'm pretty confident i could keep up once my strength has shot up,i've got some animal stak(no flames lol) as a gift yesterday so i'm thinkin i may as well use that since it was free. AS is still a few years away for me

I look forward to hearin from your friend,

thanks again
