What's crazy is that Ronnie Coleman is a bodybuilder and not a powerlifter. I know powerlifters can lift more, but 800lbs is 800lbs. Not an easy feat to accomplish.

I get a kick out how he keeps yelling out "light weight!" HAHA..

Ronnie is massive but Johnnie Jackson who placed 11th at the "O" has done a 820lb deadlift.

Yeah Jonnie Jackson is huge too. He was a powerlifter before he became a bodybuilder. He's carried over alot of techniques in his training.

I'd have to respectfully disagree with his claim to being the strongest bodybuilder. His pound for pound thing might be true. Though I know of several other bodybuilders who have barbell curled alot more then his 215lbs 1 rep max.

Lee Priest trains with 215lb and has maxed with 300lbs+ in barbell curls. Course Lee Priest is 5'4" and has arms bigger(23in cannons) then Jonnie Jackson's.

His is squat is pretty good, I'm not sure what Markus Ruhl can squat, I do know he can rep 3250lbs on the leg press 3 times. He's never done a one rep max.

Nevertheless Jonnie is a excellent bodybuilder, only thing that is holding him back from winning is other better bodybuilders and the fact that he competes in powerlifting contests too. I think that takes away too much time from his bodybuilder training....
