IPF Deadlifts at the Arnold

If you're tired of trying to figure who lifted what because of what, be sure to catch the IPF deadlift contest at the 2008 Arnold.

No smoke and mirrors, he's just strong: Brad Gillingham pulled this 390-kg gold medal deadlift at the IPF Open World Championships a couple of weeks ago. Watch for Brad Gillingham and other top powerlifters when the IPF debuts at the Arnold next year. IronMind® | Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. photo.

Bringing the IPF to the Arnold is seen as a huge addition to an already impressive menu of choices from the top of the strength world, and what a way to kick things off in powerlifting: The deadlift contest will be on the main expo stage on Saturday afternoon, Brad Gillingham told IronMind®, featuring a battle for both the biggest lift, period, and the best lift by body weight formula.

Brad Gillingham will be one of the lifters and he's coming off a huge 390-kg gold medal deadlift at the IFP Open World Championships a couple of weeks ago, so when you correctly note that Brad Gillingham is a master, be sure to remember that word doesn't just mean you're old.
