Finnish Front Squat Power – Miika Antti-Roiko

June 19, 2012 By Gregor Winter

Meanwhile in Finland…

245kg Front Squat at 96.4kg bodyweight.

Anybody know more about him? Is he competing?

Thanks Michal for pointing out that this is Miika Antti-Roiko.

I forgot that I already posted about him. See Miika Antti-Roiko 210kg Clean from Blocks.

    Did you ever watch the viking power dvd tracking Svend Karlsens’ training? He was a phenomenal front squatter. 270kg for 4 like it was an empty bar.
