In season 2 of episode 2 of Inside The Labyrinth, Jay and I had the privilege of having the GOAT, the Legend, whatever you want to call him, Ed Coan speak about his life and powerlifting experience. "Edward "Ed" Ignatius Coan (born July 24, 1963) is an American powerlifter. He is widely regarded throughout the powerlifting world as the greatest powerlifter of all time. Coan has set over 71 world records in powerlifting. Throughout his active career in international powerlifting competition Ed Coan has set over 71 world records in powerlifting. He became the lightest person to cross the 2,400 lb. barrier in the powerlifting total (a sum of three lifts: the deadlift, bench, and squat). He set an all-time powerlifting record total at 2,463 pounds, even though at the time he was not in the heaviest weight class. Coan's best single ply lifts: Squat - 1019 lbs (~462 kg) Bench press - 584 lbs (~265 kg) Deadlift - 901 lbs (~409 kg) raw by today's standards with only singlet and belt Total: 2463.6 lbs (1117.5 kg)" ========================================================================================================================================== It was a true honor and a blessing to not only have the best strongman on our show in season 1 but the best powerlifter on as well. Ed is not only a great lifter but the Obi Wan Kenobi of lifting, coaching and life experience. This is an episode you DO NOT want to miss. Ed tells it how it is and calls a spade a spade. If you want the truth and some laughs here it is. Thank you Ed for coming on and sharing your life experience and thank you for being a friend of ours now!  ========================================================================================================================================== @eddycoan @therealjumpmanjay @reps_for_responders Repsforresponders.org
