Just wanted to get a good conversation going about your favorite powerlifter/strongman... I have two people that top my list the first is Bill Kazmaier and the second is Jon Pall Sigmarsson "The Viking"... Both we're great men with amazing strength and amazing will power, truly inspiring...

Geoff Capes was the reason I started lifting weights......

I was inspired as a young boy seeing how strong these guys were. I remember telling my father - "I'm going to be that big and strong".

LOL the Vikings number one contender, Bill and Geoff we're always right on each other heels, until he started having shoulder problems and bailed.

Take a look at Ed Coan; not even in the heaviest class and he was killing it.

I've talked to a lot of powerlifters and they ALL bring up Ed Coan.. I dont think he ever made it up past the 240 class. I remember him deadlifting 700 lbs at 181 lbs raw... I'll be there in a year and half bro, already into the 500 mark.

IMO Bill was just as badass as Jon Pall... Funny you used the word Tank, there's a strongman at our gym named Bill and we all call him Tank; irony XD
