The question is, was it passed by a USAWA official in a snactioned meet? If so, then it is what it is. I would not have passed it, as I would not pass any lift where the bar was dropped. If it was passed as a record, then it was not the lifteres fault. Just as a record in a squat that was passed even though it was high would not be the lifters fault. That is why we, as officials, must be dilegent to officiate strictly according to the rules as set forth by our organization.

Me and lance did it. I did just OK in the C&J and curl, but just took a token 400 in the DL, as I m nursing my back back to health. Was easy, but I could feel it would be foolish to carry on.

Did maybe 30 minutes yesterday, but there was 2 days in a row last year where I put in 12 hours a day, determined to be clear in case mamma went into labor. I wanted to cry at the end of it.

I will weigh in on this clearly controversial issue. First, I appreciate Thom and Al’s investment in this. Al’s research makes it clear that the best evidence of the way any old timer who performed it that we have is from Thom’s uncle. That coupled with the original way it was proposed by the guy who proposed it. Anyhoo, that being the case, I say we get back to the way it was originally done for any of those who are chomping at the bit to try this lift. I just hope Thom goes through the proper channels to propose this change…

I guess I saw him once. In 2002 at the HEartland Challeneg SM meet in Council Bluffs. People were wondering who the stinky derelict wearing all leather on a 110 degree day was. Turned out it was Steve Justa. Probably thinking about how much stronger he was than all of us.

Is the heavy metal iron master, Steve Justa still writing? I I listened to him, my wos would consist of stomping around a pasture and running into telephone poles

Maybe I should look at resubscribing. I am sorry I miss the articles fro Thom and Al and so such. It just really put me off when they doubled the price. If it would have crept up on me, I probably would stil be a subscriber

Tragic. Never met Mike to my recollection, but I watched him compete. VERY strong individual

Also – I noticed you had an old school husker rack laying out in front of your gym. Why don’t you have that thing set up to be used???

I still have designs on using it. I need to get the safety pins cut though. When I got it, those were missing. What type of metal would be used for such a thing?

First one of these I ever got was from a strongman competitor that I had trained with like twice, and had come to a Gus or two. My first thought was that we were not close enough for me to be his go-to guy in such an occurance. So I didnt wire him any money. I have not heard from him since, though…
