Lovely. How many at Strong now deadlifting 700?
Just wanted to post this. I was not in the room and I feel like the first rep might have been a smidgen high, but really all three (and especially the second two) look pretty damn good.
Casey has squatted 800 raw in competition, and will be looking for 850 or so at his USPA meet Oct 5, here in Springfield, MO.
Here's the link to the video:

Why are his hands placed out so wide? I see this a lot with power lifters but don't understand why. Seems like that would make for a less tight rack for the bar.
You know you squat a lot of weight when you have nose plugs to prevent or manage nose bleeds. (I assume that's what they're for?)
Hi Matt.
Agree mucho with you here; that man owned that weight. I was, however, curious about one thing: How much, in terms of poundage, do you think the knee wraps contribute? Please know that by asking this I am in NO WAY being an internet church lady. I honestly could not give an ounce of fecal matter as to how anyone chooses to train/compete. My question comes purely from intellectual curiosity.
Thanks!
