Ric Flair Deadlifts 400 Pounds at 67 – Just Watch!

Ric Flair Deadlift – Introduction

Watch 67-year-old Ric Flair deadlift a lot more weight than your average person.

Ric Flair, also known as the “Nature Boy,” is a WWE Hall of Fame superstar who helped shape the golden era of WWE TV.

Many wrestling fans believe that 16-time world heavyweight champion Flair is the ‘God’ of Wrestling, even above Hulk Hogan.

He is considered by many to be the greatest icon in professional wrestling history.

Flair became a 16-time world champion during his 40-year career in the ring.

It is great to see that Ric Flair is doing his best to stay in shape over the age of 60.

Is there a more straightforward way to stay lean, fit, and active than the remarkable benefits of deadlifts?

I.Will.Never.Retire – Ric Flair Deadlift Video

On social media, Ric Flair shared a video of himself deadlifting 400 pounds at the age of 67 back in January of 2017.

He declares, “I.Will.Never.Retire.”

Some have commented that they did not think that Ric was deadlifting 400 pounds because his right arm was bent.

Anyone who deadlifts knows how dangerous it is to try and curl a deadlift.

Never attempt to curl the deadlift.

Therefore, you always want to keep your arms straight, which is only one of many vital deadlift form tips.

The fact that his arm is not straight is because that is how his arm extends.

Otherwise, 400 pounds would cause his arm to extend if it could fully.

Give legend Ric Flair a break; he is 67 years old!

Are You Too Old to Deadlift?

Of course, the answer is no.

You just watched Ric Flair deadlift over the age of 65.

When you finish this post, come back and watch the Powerlifting Grandma Shirley Webb deadlift 255 pounds over the age of 80!

Ric Flair vs. Hulk Hogan

Back in the last century, many wrestling fans thought of Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair as the Super Bowl Match of Wrestling.

Ric Flair Deadlifts 400 Pounds – Wrapping Up

No matter what, whether Ric is pulling 400 or 300 pounds, both qualify as a seriously heavy deadlift for any age.

But do not try to deadlift without the right deadlift training.

It is great to see that Ric Flair is deadlifting and staying in the game and doing his best to stay fit after 50 and 60.

You see for yourself that even over the age of 60, your body is capable of staying fit and healthy.

This power of your body should motivate you to get into better shape if you need to.

Your age is not an excuse.

Take care of yourself and learn how to get leaner and stronger no matter what your age.

And of course, learn about the off-the-chart benefits of deadlifts and how to deadlift safely.

And then start deadlifting to get fit and active, even if you are over 40, 50, or 60 yourselves.

What’s Next

As you now know, the self-proclaimed “jet flyin’ son of a gun,” Ric Flair still lives up to that name—deadlifting to stay in shape.

If Ric Flair can pull 400 at 67, what’s stopping you from at least starting at a lighter weight?

Next up, check out How to Deadlift: A Beginner’s Guide and start your journey toward real strength today—no robes or wrestling ring required.
