	2007/04/10, 06:07 PM how is that counted as a shirt? it's a front part of a shirt...it's literally a rubber band... this is why I have more respect for the raw tested lifters....

"that would pass in any federation" Ummm, not in USAPL, or the IPF, the only organization worth counting. Not only would the shirt be HIGHLY illegal (triple ply, over elbows, open back), the pause wasn't long enough, feet weren't flat, and his lockout would not impress a single IPF judge. Seems like Gene's shirt gets more and more rediculous, rather than him getting stronger. I'd like to see Mendy hit 1024 soon (his next goal) in a shirt NOT pulled over the elbows. -------------- Mortal by birth. Strongman by the grace of god. Blood Guts Sweat Chalk
