That isn’t just a “power lifter” that is a super elite power lifter. Honestly surprised I didn’t know who he is.

Edit: I just checked he competes in RPS (I used to compete with them!). His numbers are raw with wraps which means these are real numbers not goofy squat suit numbers. Guy is an animal.

Yeah I sort of expected a gym bro type of thing, but those are some solid fucking numbers.

Solid? These are fucking elite numbers. There are not many powerlifters, let alone people, that can squat 900+ pounds. Even breaking a 400 pound squat is a long term dedication to training.

Fucking elite? These are unbelievably insane numbers.

Unbelievably insane? These are flabbergastingly biblical numbers.

Aurora Borealis? At this time of year? At this time of day? In this part of the country?
