Thanks for the information chris , i have heard many people talk of these guys
yourself included , would you agree that the deadlift is the powerlifting lift that is the true measure of strengh i know that the squat and bench require huge strengh and are very popular but is the deadlift the true daddy.
There seems to be no end of bench press competitions around the world with many lifters claiming to be the number one bencher but it is not so with deadlifting, why is that ?.
Good luck in your furture powerlifting competitions one day i hope to be as good as some of the men you have mentioned [but it may take a while !]
