    It's not many, but there's something to be said for going down in history as the first guy to deadlift 1000lbs like Andy Bolton did. And honestly, no-one goes into powerlifting/strongman/strength training for the props. Because no-one outside the community gives a fuck.

    When you see 'the world's strongest man' type stuff on TV where people pull a double decker bus with just a rope... Scary stuff imo.

    The same guys also pull trains or jets from time to time. They;re ridiculously strong, even if they are roided to the gills.

    But I'm not saying you're after fame but at least you can say you came somewhere in weightlifiting competition, the same with a gaming competition, just because nobody gives a fuck about either doesn't mean you can't be proud if you did well.

    Going to the gym has obvious health benefits too.

    I agree. Pulling off hard shit is worth being proud of, regardless of the medium (being an oversize nerd probably skews my opinion a bit, but whatever).

    It does, but those are somewhat wiped out by walking around at 350-400lbs. Superheavyweights are the strongest guys out there, but they aren't healthy by most sane standards.

    Leverage is not strength.

    There's a trick to it, but it does come down to strength. Most people simply couldn't do it without help no matter how much leverage you gave them.

    Explain, then, why I am 5'4", and in a previous job, I regularly moved tires for farm combine machinery by myself, without the assistance of a bed-crane, with only two 4' metal tire bars.

    For the record, I try to stay away from steroids
