Ed Coan

700lb [full] squat with a hip replacement? Thank you for assassinating the last remaining excuse for not squatting.

Not trying to offend anyone (I mean this), but am I the only one who found Marty Gallagher extremely annoying during Rip's interview with Ed Coan?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Yes, you probably are.

Coan seems like a pretty quiet, modest guy. No offense to Rip but without Gallagher there we may not have got half the information we did.
I'd love to see another interview with Marty any day.

Rip, what's your take on Coan's recent arrest?

[Mark Rippetoe]

I don't know anything about it, and more importantly, I don't see how it affects his contribution to the sport.

Followed by a quick run down of his current lifts and then (in my opinion) the best part of the interview, where Rip just says: "Well, he's Ed Coan."

I rarely care how someone sounds but am more interested in what they say. And what Gallagher says is pure gold.
