The only explanation is that he eats canned spinach with a little bit of vinegar in it to be able to do this. Sooo I guess I'll never reach this goal. 😩
Actually, I find his gut to be far more impressive than the actual lift. Seriously, how is that weight belt even holding in that holy distended of an abdomen?
Looked ridiculously heavy until he picked it up off the rack. That actually looked too easy so there was no doubt he would clean it. However, the press was easier than expected as well.
This is wilddddd I topped out at 475lbs when I was training daily for years at 15kg more than dmitry. Never attempted higher than 600lb back squat (no assistance). I was not THAT strong, but still stronger than 99% of people I met. That 1% to .1-.01% gap is just mind blowing. I spent 18-22 hours a week in the gym and never got CLOSE to what he accomplished
