Was just poking around on YouTube and watched Ed Coan from the 2007 USPF nationals. It's pretty impressive watching him walk out 929 lbs before he squats. I know he's squatted over a grand, and he must've walked that out too. I don't have any axe to grind in debates over gear and monolifts, but it is something watching him walk that weight out and stand there for a few seconds before squatting plenty deep. And to think he's in his mid-forties. One damn strong man. You can read a recent interview here.
