About Me

Emevas
I am a strongman (200lb LW) and former powerlifter (181 class). Best total in competition is 1439 (unequipped) as of 2012, with a 502lb squat, 336lb bench and 601lb deadlift. Best gym lifts of a 545x5 squat, 350lb bench and 650 deadlift. I have competed in 12 strongman competitions taking 4 first place, 2 second, 1 third, 2 fourth places and 1 sixth in the 200lb class and 2 fourth place showing in the 220/231lb class (competing up), along with a ruptured ACL and a third place finish in a team contest. I am an avid reader of all things strength related along with philosophy, with a focus on political theory and existentialism.
