Coleman’s training feats are still legendary today, as seen by the more than 61 million views his 800-pound squat video has received on YouTube alone.
Before Coleman, people always thought of bodybuilders as powerful, but “The King” raised the bar significantly. Coleman performed a squat of 800 pounds, a deadlift of 800 pounds for two repetitions, and a bench press of 495 pounds for five repetitions. And unlike Columbu, all of these accomplishments are supported by video, so there is no doubt whatsoever about his renowned strength.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, a seven-time Olympian, didn’t really lack in any categories. More than 40 years after leaving the stage for good, he is still regarded as one of the sport’s greatest superstars. He had the body, the posing skill, and the raw strength to rank among the best.
Similar to Columbu, Schwarzenegger started his career in strength sports with brief forays into Olympic weightlifting and powerlifting, finding considerable success in both before focusing solely on bodybuilding. But despite that, he continued to pursue his goals in strength.
