Yup. The 4 minute mile and Bannister all over again. Hell, look how many 1000lb deadlifts we have now after a LONG time with Andy Bolton being the only holder of that title.

A bit off topic but I went to a seminar in 2005 and saw Brian Siders who I think was the IPF super heavyweight champion at the time do a few sets of 5 ā¦ close grip ā¦ with 495. Smooth and fast also - didnāt even seem to be struggling probably the most impressive lifting I ever saw in person.
He was more of a single ply lifter I think but I recall he did 650 no shirt in a full meet no doubt could have hit 700 had he focused on raw benching

I dug how he competed in The Arnold for Strongman. Cool to see a crossover athlete. Even qualified in the 08 WSM
