Dan Macri - Australia's Strongest Man

[dandexter]

Good call, I was expecting that one. Those my 50kg plates a bit more useful then those bars mentioned before.

Depends on how you would describe more useful

I'd likely use the bars more than any 50kg plates

 

[walt]

dont all the strongman call themselves the strongest man?

I thought warrick brant was the winning strongman btw?

 

[The Hamburgler]

Who knows

Brant can front squat like a mofo but from what I've heard him and Boyer won't go head to head so they both claim themselves as the strongest lol

Agreed, I personally think all those bar's are a gimmick (except the bulldog bar and similar bars that are just really strong normal bars). If Andrey Malanichev can reach a 450kg raw squat without bloody bow bars, bandbells bar and cambered bar, then clearly I won't need them. I could be wrong, but from what I have read and seen him and those strong russain don't use them and squat more raw then 90% of the westside guys do with double ply.

Good lookin bloke

 

[The Hamburgler]

He has the look every true man should aspire to

They're not squats, they're box squats and its quite high. Well above parallel. Still a strong ass dude, but just sayin'

Cheers,
Mike

With that cambered bar and a box with foam on it, I doubt it was any easier then a normal straight bar squat.

I can guarrantee you it was a lot harder lol
