Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 Mark Henry is possibly the best all-round strength athlete of his time. His combined Olympic and Power totals are better than Shane Hammans and he bested currentl WSM champ Svend Karlsson in a strong man contest at the Arnold Classic last February. Bill Kazmeier lifted the Inch Dumbbell overhead in Perth, Australia during the early 1990s, becoming the first and, until Henry's recent effort, only man to do so. Casler was interested in 's bench press and dealift. He is supposed to have Bench Pressed 627lb and deadlifted 820lb. I have seen pictures of him floor pressing 700lb. His pressing prowess was on a par with his squatting. He generally used straps for his deadlift with a sumo style and very narrow grip. I saw him do 750# in an exhibition and suppose 820# was possible. His claimed lifts have been questioned by some authorities, but generally speaking he was certainly one of, if not the strongest, man of all time. Best wishes!

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 --- Hi Dmitry! A few corrections are in order. Pat Casey was the first man to bench press over 600# in an official contest in 1966. Jim bench pressed 675# with a near miss at 700# at the 1972 world powerlifting championships held in York, PA. I would question the 200 kg. curl and the 315# curl for 15 reps. I have witnessed Bill Kazmire do five cheat curls with 300# over ten years ago. The current generally accepted mark for strict curl( back to the wall ) is 260# by the late Canadian world weightlifting champ,Doug Hepburn, done in the '50's. Hepburn is often considered the first man to bench press 500# although multiple Mr. Universe Reg Park may have been. Best wishes!

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 Hi Dan! This must be in different feds. It's pretty well accepted on most sites and literature that Kaz was the man. But this could very well be exclusively referring to the IPF. The curls are official lifts. They certainly weren't strict, actually a lot of sites that list the feat say " cheat curl " . My poster lists this being acheived in 1985. Dmitry Voronov Toronto, Ontario icp328 wrote: > --- > Hi Dmitry! > > A few corrections are in order.
