The fact KK regularly did 900+ deaflifts WITHOUT A BELT is not mentionned enough. Also having Zahir and Kiryll in his corner is the ultimate avengers lineup: one of the all-time best deadlifters in history being supported by one of the best benchers and one of the best squatters in history is beautiful.

"So he's a sumo puller" *testosterone goes down* "but we got him on the conventional deficit" *testosterone goes back up*

So we can all assume based on Larry’s PED use that his blood pressure may be elevated a bit more than the average person. Under huge amounts of strain his B/P could easily be in the 300s systolic when he’s lifting that kind of weight. Just for reference a normal blood pressure is around 120 and 140+ is considered a high blood pressure. Also he’s lean a hell and tends to get acne. So when that pressure rises it will take the path of least resistance, and that happened to be out the chest and all over the place.

I'm a woman, natty, and weak by social media standards. I also have low-ish blood pressure. I regularly break blood vessels on my eyelids and neck when squatting and deadlifting. It makes me feel like kind of a badass but I also worry that people who don't lift will think it's from BDSM activities.

I met Pete under not the greatest circumstances (charity deadlift meet for a mutual friend who passed away, raising money for his family). Knowing all the old super hype angry lifting basement deadlift videos, my man was the nicest easy going dude. Shot the shit about our respective businesses for a few minutes. He's such an asset to the community.

If I remember right Larry explained that the bleeding was a combination of high blood pressure and pores that had recently been "picked" because they had pimples. Kinda gross but an existing open wound explains it.

Just what I needed. Wasn’t looking forward to deadlift day, but now I can’t wait!

That 426kg KK lift was the 308 world deadlift record until very recently. An absolute madman of a lifter

Love the Baltic Candles sign behind Konstantinov's lift at 3:45. Reminds me of the Samboy Chips sign behind Taranenko's 266 clean and jerk. Also dreamland 64 theme from smash 64 is excellent outro music choice.

I remember hearing Larry explain his video, apparently it was chest acne and the deadlift pressure just made them go off...

Shivlyakov's grind must be the most insane Deadlift in terms of pure willpower. It should have been on this list

Honestly as someone who had to stop taking gear and got weak, I really, REALLY look up to Pete Rubish

Matt wenning was very good both equipped and raw. Scott mendelson was also a great bench presser raw and geared

Since you asked about powerlifters doing well in both raw and equipped, Scot Mendelson is the only man in history to hold both the raw and the equipped bench records at the same time. He benched 700 raw and more than 1000 equipped.

I was expecting the famous Bugez deadlift with the rubber band breaking and the deadlift ending as a shovel deadlift. But that was quite testy even without it.

Lmfao reacting from the round table hold

Great info...love the elden ring background...just funny for me man...great content as well...

Conventional = gripped deadlift Zercher = real deadlift Sumo = cheating (yourself)

On the topic of lifters who are great at geared and raw lifting: Agata Sitko is a polish lifter who's quickly rising the ranks as an up-and-comer. She had as close a battle as you can get against Jessica Buettner at classic worlds this year, coming in 2nd only because of bodyweight and setting a new open bench world record. The month before that, she competed equipped at the European championships and set a new junior world record bench press. And next month, she'll be competing at world games in gear, no doubt gonna do something huge there

8:14 411KG just bounced like rubber. Watching this made my traps grow.

On KKs 390kg lift it would have been fun to see John Haack just approaching the bar in a fishermans hat and jordan slippers pulling it with ease.

426kg beltless deadlift by KK

Man I though it was gonna be a video discussing studies where they showed the effects of deadlifts on testosterone, buuuut still sat through the whole video because watching these deadlifs raises testosterone.

I just found your channel last night (even though somehow I was already subscribed.... weird) but I love your videos man. Can't give you enough kudos!!

oh hell yeah, love barbell apparel! fantastic brand and glad u got them as a sponsor, their jeans are the only jeans I wear anymore

Perfect video for me to watch whilst eating before I lift, congrats on the sponsorship dude, you deserve it !!

The energy on this video was insane. Luv it! Hell yeah Zack💯

For a powerlifter who did both geared and raw lifting, i think the most notable one was Matt Wenning. Multiply he hit a 1196/815/800 SBD, raw he's done 865/612/750.

Content has been elite lately!

Of course we have to expect the last deadlift to be coach ZT himself; the RPE11- eye socket blood pressure popping entering the Astral Plane at Juji's farm deadlift

I assumed the blood was from his ear and dripped onto his chest. Awesome video. Good job on the new sponsorship!

Enjoyed the video as always my dude, all the best

Just watched this first thing in the morning.Instant wake up and energizing.T level through the roof. Note: bar weight is irrelevant.If the weight is your max (or more),you lift and don't let go -no matter what- that is the best deadlift. That's why the last one was the best.

Vogelpohl deadlifting 800+ and throwing the bar to the ground at a meet because he was so hyped for the PR is pretty good too.

The blood thing with Larry is scary ngl

2:57 When the baker flours the dough before kneading

Dealiftt is the lift that makes me feel real good. It's literally pick heavy shit up and put them down, we don't get more blood pumping than that.

Eric Lillibridge only ever did raw and wraps, never "equipped" Malanichiev and Yury Belkin were both super elite in raw/wraps and in single ply equipped. There's others I'm not thinking of right now...

Deadlifts from Mikhail Shivlyakov would've been a good addition to raise testosterone 💪

Finally a mention of Geroge Leeman, that guy did so much for modern KZfaq lifters!

How could you not include the undisputed king of the bleeding deadlift, Mikhail Shivlyakov? Siberian Force!

You should go on Pete rubish’s podcast. Super chill guy

I watch this while taking the post-(pre-workout) shit in the gym's bath, before hitting a new deadlift pr

Could have put some Shivlyakov's deadlifts in this compilation

Matt Wenning is one of the only people to have ATWR in geared and raw

That Tshirt tho 😤🤘

I think Matt Wenning was an elite powerlifter in both geared and raw powerlifting.

Well the actual reason that larry started bleeding from his chest was the acne. The acne bumps require less pressure to pop and start bleeding. Larry has talked about this himself aswell

You should check out some of Jessie norris’ deadlifts, he would do 585x10 mostly touch and go on a axel bar. Grip strength was in real. Edit: off a deficit.

Absolutely genius. Just don't let go

Whoa, whoa, WHOA! How the hell do you have a test raising deadlift video and NOT include Shivlyakov's master's deadlift record???

I deadlifted today. 185lbs × 19. Rested. Felt off. Stood on some plates for a deficit and did a 2nd set. That was that till next time and I go for 20 in about 2 weeks.

to answer your question yessss.. Matt Wenning was phenomenal at both gear and raw and set world records in both and peaked at age 35 injury free..

In regards to your comments on Eric Lillibridge, he did not compete in multiply powerlifting. Eric is one of the greatest raw w/ wraps powerlifters to ever touch the barbell. He has squatted 1063, benched around 565, and deadlifted over 900 in competition. His 275 and 308 totals were ONLY rivaled by Zahir and Malanichev for years. Eric retired from powerlifting while under 30 years old because there was nothing left to achieve.

LOL @ the salespitch. I get it, it's just funny how you have to do that now even though it's clear you don't want to and know it's lame hahaha nice work

the perfect finale

Anecdotally... I'm 35, started lifting/deadlifting last November. I haven't done blood work in awhile but my body hair is thicker, I have more energy, skin is clearer; also doesn't hurt that deadlifting gets the demons out...

The irony of all these guys having their natural test production shut down from so much gear.

This vid is great, but missing Mikhail "Exploding Face" Shivlyakov

Congrats on your new sponsor Zack

Let's go tom is deadlift day!

George Leeman aka the calf god! I jest, that shizzle was hella impressive!

crime to not include larry’s 930x3 deadlift in this video

To explain Larry, dudes juices got him some bad acne all over and it's the acne pours that pop from the blood pressure when lifting.

Dan Green... what a freaking beast!

Touch and go is awesome, i feel like it reinforced my starting position, but crash and go is a no-no ego lifting

Pete has put out some great content.

Well if you're still consuming corn syrup and seed oils, washing yourself with body wash that the FDA considers detergent, using acne creams, drinking from plastic and not getting your mental strength/emotions in check, you'll still be estrogenic

Zach honey you should include your deadlift in Juji's barn where you blew your eyes out. That deadlift was fire!

no clarence, so will not be liking this video but i will be commenting and subscribing

Eric started off single ply gear powerlifting but he mostly did raw for years. And I would say the best raw and gear lifter I can think of os matt wenning he squatted like 1100 pounds in gear and like 850 raw

Hey, can you explain what u meant when u said these aren’t deadlift and that it comes from the elbow and calling them hand lifts I’m new to powerlifting and I don’t fully understand what you meant there Would really appreciate it!

Larry bleeds out of his acne, thank God it's not just random parts of his skin. He's got dark skin and isn't filming in 8k, so you don't normally see the bumps and stuff until they zoom in. It is everything else that you're saying too though, high BP and thin blood from PEDs, the strain increases the BP to dangerous levels, and he's got essentially ultra thin skin/a scab/capillary blood vessels right on the surface near the acne. So pop. Same reason that people bleed from the nose, the blood is closer to the surface there.

Been doing TNG deadlifts for a while so I don’t wake the baby. TBH I think people should get a strong back before they mess with them. If you don’t know what you’re doing it’s really easy to strain your back.

How can I not deadlift to the Smash Bros theme after this video

the sound of the weights jangling around from 9:27-9:55 raised my testosterone by 420 ng/dL

Another Juji collabbbbbb

Deadlifting with your hands is just a block pull variation when you’re giving those elbow crooks a break

Answering your question about powerlifters who did both raw and equipped - Matt Wenning 1000kg raw total and over 1200 equipped

KK motivated me to deadlift heavy. I never got that heavy, but I did more than 99.999 percent of people. rip you monster

I remember watching a video where Larry explained that lift and he said it was just pimples popping because of the pressure.

Hey zack when you asked if someone was good both gear and raw a underrated name I think is Matt Wenning super strong guy all around

You missed Benedikt Magnussons 1015, probably one of the most beautiful deadlifts ever recorded

Thanks for the pep talk Zack. Today it's amrap burpees in 7 min for me

Having Dan Green and not the 900 lbs beltless conventionnal deadlift he did in the Cage in 2018 ? This alone warrant a second episode !

Honestly amazed the bugz wasn’t included here somewhere

No deadlift compilation is complete without Mikhail shivlykov

Zack will you be attending the American open this year?

i like that green screen background

Wait bro you play Elden ring or what I just realized the background was the roundtable lmao

Why won't people do the eccentric phase controlled? Wouldn't that lead more growth?

When you said he’s a sumo puller and the t bar went down i about hacked up a lung

second time a video about powerlifter and still no chris duffin ? I'm starting to wonder if you the mad scientist of strength... :(

I remember I laughed so hard on that Juji video. lmao

glenn bagget & greg panora are good equipped powerlifters that transitioned to raw successfully

I just realized after the first part of this that I've been doing deadlifts wrong my whole life. I don't pull a lot of weight just 405 but I don't touch the ground when I reb it. When I hit 315 for 10 I'm never touch the ground until I'm done the set. Didn't even think about letting it rest so that it's an actual deadlift 🤦🏿‍♂️🤦🏿‍♂️

I think it was just chest acne popping with the larry video. Happened to me once: was deadlifting then I look in the mirror and the back of my shirt is bloody from my popped pimples.

I vote quarter deads, since it's a quarter of the range of motion as a TRUE deadlift.

Peak content.
