Curling +300lbs

I don't believe it. I think it is a doctored photo. Magnus is a damn strong man but if he can curl 8 plates then he should be squating a fucking small building!

I belive it is a true picture.. It´s his official homepage and putting up doctored pics wouldn´t be smart since he has to prove his strength. You can "rent " him from that homepage for appearances and such.

I'm skeptical- he's strong as hell, but with that much weight it seems to me you'd have to be leaning back a little more, just to counter balance the barbell.
 
look at the weights - they look like the rubber plates you use in powerlifting where you can drop them and they don't do as much damage to the floor.
the concept with those is usually that they are color coded - but they are all always the same size.
so you can have a 10lb one and a 50lb one (they are in kg, but I'm retarded), and they look the same, but feel differently - you have to go by the color, or the writing on them...

they had them when I was in college - it made it look like you could do a ton, but in reality you had like 100lbs total
 
i have to call bullshit on this one. curling 300+ is crazy insane. that's like hoisting up a 150lb DB with one arm. OOOOOOKKKAYYYYY. not buying it.
 
We have those weights at my gym and the smallest are 15kg/plate (33lbs) and the biggest are 20kg(44lbs), the next step is those iron weights that make a hole in the floor if dropped.

Yellow weights = 33lbs
Blue = 44lbs
 
...

Arnold used to curl 225 for 10 strict reps so is highly believeable someone could curl 300. I'msure arnold could and also bet many top pros like Coleman could also.
 
Kaz, back in the day could curl 315 for reps. Why do you think they call them "World's Strongest Man"? I'd say its more than real. That's what strongmen do, they're strong.

Hell I can curl 215 and i'm an old man....

You can suck my dick, too. Quit boasting how awesome you are, rectal discharge. You're so pathetic that you smear disgrace across the reputation of asswipes everywhere.
 
I believe that shit, have you ever seen him in the Worlds Strongest competition, he;s fuckin strong. He broke some big fuckers arm in half in an arm wrestling competition on the show. Those guys are in a league of their own, you cant compare them to pussy pro body builders or the rest of you fags.

Did you say you wanted me to lube it up before I stick it in or just go rough rider? Fuckin punk.

Agreed. Might as well call Bullshit on The Game while I'm at it. 215 might be possible, but not by this guy.
 
There are guys who can curl 300+, I believe, but the guy's posture just looks like he's doing it so easily. There's a lot of leverage on your upper body holding that much weight out in front of you. Look how much those guys are leaning with the atlas stones.
 
This guy also deads somewhere between 900-1000 I believe. Plus, atlas stones are hard to hold. There are no handles, and the size pushes the weight out far from the body. Leaning back, in effect, aids grip and brings the weight closer to the center of gravity. I still think this pick is legit.

You may be right. I don't ever like to discredit someone else's achievements just because they're superior to my own. I know the atlas stones are awkward, but that was the first example that came to my mind.
 
Svend Karlsen

According to I believe PowerMag, Svend Karlsen curls in the neighborhood of 360 for 6. He finished #2 to Magnus in the final world rankings. Therefore, I can certainly see how Magnus can curl 300 for reps. Bear in mind, they'e not using the old Weider Arm Blaster though =) There's certainly a little back involved.

:D
 
if those are 45's, than he's curling 405.....in which case I would call bullshit. But it would seem they are not 45's as europeans use a different scheme. I'd like to know exactly how much weight that is in pounds.
 
and to whomever called him ugly.....you could only "dream" to be that jacked. Yeah he carries more BF than a bb on stage, but he looks ALOT better than offseason pics I've seen of Coleman, Priest, Kamali etc.....and even offseason those BB's couldn't lift his nutsack.
 
Then I have a question. If these guys are primarily powerlifters, then I assume the vast majority of their training consists of heavy compound lifts. So, why would they be putting so much effort into an isolation excercise like curls? I mean, it would take a good long time to reach those kinds of weights on a curl, even for those guys. What's the point?
 
because they compete in WSM events which I think are a better indicator of overall strength and functionality than a powerlifting meet. In strict powerlifting biceps are more of a support muscle when doing deads, squats and bench. But WSM your doing events which can only be characterized as "odd". Lifting heavy ass barrels, round spheres, Stones etc..., utilize more muscles than plifting meets. The angles that these guys lift stuff at would cause serious injuries to most people. That's why they train differently. The other thing you're starting to see are the competitors being in better shape. That's because alot of the events require more cardio ability than they used to. The fat guys are starting to see that they lose ALOT of ground in those events.

GREAT post!!! Right on the money. Well...except that you forgot the space between "a" and "lot"

:D
 
god damn!!! another fucking spelling whore!!!..........:D hehe j/k

And another little something for the guys that critisized Samuelson's physique, you should find pictures of Martin Muhr and Juoko Ahola when he was competing and WINNING WSM competitions. I don't know how those guys do it, but they come in Diced and still competed with the guys that had 100lbs or more on them. Especially Juoko....god was that fucker swoll. I've never seen more lean mass in my life except for on the Mr. Olympia stage......but this fucker wasn't 5 minutes from dying like the Olympia boys are. He was busy pulling a fucking 747 down a runway!!! Unfucking beleivable those guys are.

Speak for yourself. I'm happy being plain old me.
 
A) The weight is slightly past half way.
B) He isn't leaning back any at all.
C) Even with his own body weight and this he would automatically fall forward some due to the loss of his center of gravity.
D) Even when he is in the WSM comps lifting that big ass 300 pound atlas stone he leans back and hugs the thing into his body.
