A year and a half ago, Nick Best was on the mend. After tearing a lat muscle in April 2021<\/a>, it was unclear when the athlete would again go full throttle in training<\/a> and competition. With less than two weeks until the 2022 Official Strongman Games<\/a> (OSG), the versatile athlete seems to be back at a complete strength<\/a> capacity. <\/p>\n

On Oct. 30, 2022, Best shared an Instagram clip of himself finishing a 272.7-kilogram (600-pound) deadlift<\/a> for 16 reps from a narrow conventional<\/a> stance<\/strong>. Per the caption of Best’s post, his demonstration of deadlift power and endurance came only a few days before his 54th birthday on Nov. 3. This specific deadlift set might have been motivated by a celebration of his latest age milestone. The athlete utilized lifting straps and also wore a lifting belt<\/a> to help him with the pulls.<\/p>\n
