Clean-and-Jerk, Deadlift, Farmer’s Walk

• How much you can lift off the
  ground
• How much you can put over
  your head
• How much weight you can walk
  with

Clean and Jerk, Deadlift, and the Farmer’s Walk are the 3
ultimate tests of strength. No matter what kind of gear, suits, wraps,
belts, suits  ever invented.  You cannot cheat the Holy Trinity of
Strength (Clean and Jerk, Deadlift, Farmer’s Walk) as you can cheat
bench and squat.  With bench press and squat you can get away with
supportive gear, sloppy form and partial movement.  But not with Clean
and Jerk, Deadlift, and Farmer’s Walk.  With these three you only one
way to go.

The former world record in the Clean and Jerk was 266.0 kilograms (586 lb) by Leonid Taranenko of the Soviet Union. However this weight is not considered a world record by the International Weightlifting Federation, since all the old records were annulled after a restructuring of weight classes. 6′, 321 lbs, 32 years old at the time of the record.
