Andy Bolton Squat and DL at the Arnold

[Weee]

YouTube - Andy Bolton wins the WPO title

He decided that he'd rather go for the WR in deadlift then go with a slightly lighter deadlift and guarantee a WR in all time total.

I really don't know but I guess my concept of parallel and squatting is screwy, cuz I just don't see it.

Anyhow, he's one strong ass dude.

here's a slightly different angle on it. After watching this, there's no way to judge his depth on the last squat, it'd be entirely up to a side judge but there's no way from the angle that i could say that he was NOT parallel. He's damn strong.

I think your trying to say that it's a 1/2 squat but it is heavy enough for three people?

[Weee]

I think he's saying it's a half squat and that he thinks the spotters were helping. should we make a poll to vote on what he's trying to say?

[drugsarebad...hummmkayy]

uh! what are you trying to say?

It did'nt look like he locked out his 1000+ bench all the way and it did'nt look like he stood up completely straight on his 1000+ deadlift. Maybe it was because of all the weight or he has a slight curviture in his spine like me, but if I was the judge, I don't think I would have given it to him...

Only thing that looked iffy to me was the squat, but that would be a side judge call.

Strong as fack.

PS. I love the comments in the one vid saying strongmen are **** and powerlifters rule all lol

[Will100]

dont forget, with all that mass it may not look like hes going down but he is...the commitee or ref or w.e isnt gonna say yes to a sub standard lift

the dude is huge lol

The squat looks parallel to me, I think with that sort of weight going beyond parallel must be too much of a risk.
