Here is a video of Ronnie Coleman’s at his first powerlifting competition.
1994 was the year. Already huge as a rock.
Also in the video is Roy Mason who holds the 60+ record in the 165 lbs with a 545 lbs deadlift (1987).
Best of Olympic Weightlifting
How much weight at the end?
Is that Rip announcing the weights?!
Now that you say it… It does sound a bit like him.
To be honest, I’m more impressed by the old man lifting 220kg.
Maybe if he shut up and focused…
When I see a video with Coleman always turn off the sound, I just can’t stand his “oooooohhh yyeeaaaaaHH ….. 🙂
hoooo. hoooo. lightweight! yep.
loved seeing Roy Mason. That dude was a legend. Still remember the Powerlifting USA with him on the cover.
Ah so that is Roy Mason. Thanks for the info.
unnecessary amount of yelling from Ronnie, but the old guy was impressive as hell!!!
I believe roy is 145lbs there and lifting 220 or 240kg by the sound of it he is around 76 years old in this video. Very cool video I wish I can continue to lift until I’m old, I remember an old video of a former olympic lifting champion squatting like 400+lbs at near 80 years old also I will try to find it and post it.

No excuses people
wtffffff thats amazing?!?! ill be lucky to squat myself out of a damn chair at 77 let alone lift that! very impressive…you should probably wear a belt for that at age 77 tho dude, to protect whats left of your spine :[ (no disrespect)
this was a comment left on the 77yr old squat. idiot doesnt realize the reason his spine is so good is because he squats. people like that piss me off to no end
Dude … YouTube comments …
Appreciate the funny ones and ignore the stupid one.
Thanks for digging these up!
The guy in the background talking like Ronnie is a douchebag.
