Soelden, Austria - Winning the 125-kg class at the IPF World Championships seemed like a straight line thing for Tony Cardello (USA): He was third in the squat, second in the bench press and, maintaining the trend, first in the deadlift (367.5) and the total (1022.5).
This 390-kg lift gave Tony Cardella (USA) the bronze medal in the squat in the 125-kg class at the IPF World Championships. Cardella went on to get the silver medal in the bench press and the gold medal in the deadlift and the total. IronMind® | Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. photo.
