The guy I did a kb cert with, Valery Fedorenko, clocks in at about 180lbs and here he is cleaning and jerking the inch:



From the AKC blog:

Yes, that’s a Thomas Inch Dumbell (172lb.) in Valery’s hands, but he didn’t quite lock it out all the way. I missed the photo op, but he almost had it locked out. It’s ok… He Cleaned it and Jerked it to the surprise of many onlookers. “How can a skinny guy do that?” was the general look on peoples faces…
I've done enough fatbar work to know I couldn't get close to lifting the inch now. But it'd be fun to try.
