Brian Oldfield Lou Ferrigno Weight Lifting

He had potential he wasn't at all at his peak strenght and weight he was a bb he was strong naturally they use less in wsm today in axle press.Overhead lifting is not popular as then actually in those days they could lift 500bls in clean and press no leg drive as 1972 nomore recognized the lift the lift is not popylar thanks to the overated popular bench press ever body and there mother can bench 400lbs so overrated the clean overpress is way to see how strong you truely are overall

Lou was one of the strongest men at one time and had incredible potential he wasn't at all at his peak strenght he was a bb he was strong naturally.310 is considerable afficent in qualiyfing in being strongman the use in wsm today in axle press.overhead liftnot popular as then actually in those days they could lift 500bls in clean and press no leg drive as 1972 nomore recognized the lift also few years laterly lou could lift 400lbs in the press and 500 was not out of the question

None of Ferrigno's lifts should have passed.

Exactly. He would have no chance in a real lifting competition

It was obvious Ferrigno hadn't trained for that style of lifting. Even big Lou couldn't do it on muscle alone. Oldfield had muscle and technique. I was shocked to see the condition Brian Oldfield is in now. Don't know what happened to him, he's in a wheelchair and it's hard for him to talk, sounds like he's got emphysema. A shadow of the guy you see in this video.

It's sad, yes.

This is just silly. Lou failed all of his lifts on this vid.

hey man if you have more VIDS of this same competition that you could post, ID REALLY APPRECIATE IT! thanks... Oldfied is a fucking SUPERSTAR!!! lol

oldfield fucking rapes this guy. he is god

Lou looked slimmer here. I don't think he was more than 250.
