Underrated Comment

Based

😂

"Do you disregard the physiques bodybuilders have?" Yes, I do, because they all look like shit now.

@@MAGAMAN Fr dude the GH gut just looks awful not even impressive anymore and has completely disintegrated the landscape of true bodybuilding aesthetics.

John Haack would beg to differ 8 years later 😂 it's true though Ed will be a Goat forever

10000% true. I get so sick of ignorant people always thinking and saying something along the lines of “oh well sure he squatted 4x and benched 3x his BW but if I took steroids I would be able to do that too”. Meanwhile these people have been lifting the same weight for 5 years with no signs of progressing whatsoever and it’s due to some combination of poor training plan/program, poor work ethic/discipline, poor nutrition, or poor recovery protocols. Sure if this person took steroids it’s likely that the drugs would help whatever areas this person was deficient in and they would progress. Here the drugs are being used to compensate for lack of other things in the strength and muscle building process, so improvement will be seen. However, without optimizing every facet of training, nutrition, and recovery, while not being coupled with great genetics, then steroids will allow improvement but never will they make someone average into someone extraordinary. All of the pieces must be present in the right ratios to make someone as impressive as Ed Coan.

@@sonderdm8223 Ed Is a legend but yeah this comment has not aged well.

lolz

I don't think anyone has under the same conditions (2 hour weigh ins, Stiff bar, full meet)

Could be a equipment matter. shirts, wraps and belt usage has seen some advancements and alterations in rules.

I don't understand? I am not comparing equipped lifting to Ed's numbers, I am comparing modern RAW numbers to his hold numbers (most of which weren't truly "raw", as he was using the original versions of squat suits, bench shirts, etc)

Punchy317 Well If I understand correctly RAW In the Coan, Marty and Kaworski days was just a belt. The end. Now we have more equipment being used, RAW and otherwise, and the equipment is alot better than anything the Iron Giants ever used. They discuss this in the video and marty express the same thing in his book : The purposeful primitive. One comparison. Bench shirts. Iron Giant days it ads 40 pounds. In our day and age up to 40 percent (sounds alot to me but that's the quote).

he pulled that 861 in a deadlift only meet, ed did the 901 after squatting and benching. thats a pretty massive difference. also saying "he could pull 901 at 198" is completely a shot in the dark. he may need to gain so much muscle to pull that that it puts him out of the 198 class. re eric lilliebridge, theres a good chance the way wraps are now, he gets the same as ed did out of wraps and a suit. so if he can total more than 2426 or whatever it was, at 220, in wraps, then hes better. if not, ed is still better. if belyaev outpulls him, but coan still totals more, ed is still better.

JImmy Brungis true but in a lower class. i think belyaev could potentially break coans record. we'll see

I do the same it's great. No disrespect to all involved it's just relaxing :)

Thumbs up for mentioning Cael Sanderson.

Those guys are animals, but 14-15% is just unheard of in elite competition

Hay. Its been four months. How did the program go? Any gains?

Was a bit much while cutting, a lot of near max work loads. I respond better with programs like sheiko honestly. Everyone's different, i would recommend try it while bulking

Suits me perfectly ;-). Yeah cutting is a bitch. I lost twenty pounds on all the big three the last time but now Im wiser.

Joey Zoida what program?

gimmi the program!

Right!? Sets world records in 6 weight classes and is Still so humble.

@Steve O i think Marty and Kirk trained special ops guys

Marty would start to annoy me, he incessantly speaks when not spoken to, plays the role of big papa, listen to me I know best and more than you

Fhavve

That's what makes you gay

Is it not a federal crime? I thought the Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990 specifically made possession, sale, etc of AAS illegal on a federal level.

NorthpawJinx No I am almost sure that the "Doug" is Doug Furnas. The most dominant 275 pounder ever

Ramaswamy Narayanan Correct, Doug Furnas.

Doug Furnas

Power lifters. They're talking about strength not as mate

@220. Babyslayer is fat as shit.

Dane Weeks And stronger than you will ever be.

George is 350 lol

Tom Martin might beat it.
