Strength Chat 53: Alex Viada

Alex is a lifelong athlete and the only person known to have ever deadlifted over 700 pounds within a week of running a 50 mile ultra-marathon. (This record is not official, but is most likely accurate as to date he's just fairly certain nobody else has bothered to try it.)
