I saw him and kirk kowalski at the USPF Senior National Powerlifting Championship in Philly.....2 tanks......shane hamman didn't lift but he had the largest legs I ever saw......dude looked 5 foot nothing probably a 275 or more...
No, pump is not needed for muscular growth. The only hypertrophy you'd get out of a constant pump is sarcoplasmic hypertrophy. Which is just fluid.
are you talking about Shane Hammock?
I guess we could have all the power lifters who don't get pumps and then bodybuilders post their pics and see who's bigger.lol
Shane was 350lbs @ 5'9 when he competed. He was a PLer first but switched to Oly lifting. His biggest squat was 457.5kg (equipped, not sure if it was single or multi). He also competed in the 2000 Summer Olympics. I believe he finished something like 10th.

How would you categorize those who started out as one and than when to compete in the other like Johnny and Stan?
