David Hoff
David Hoff of Westside Barbell is quite simply one of the greatest all-time strength athletes. In fact, considering his age, a very solid argument can be made he IS the greatest all-time strength athlete.
Dave’s recent all-time 2nd highest powerlifting total, and all-time highest total in the 275 lbs weight class of 2,910 lbs all at 23 years of age is an utterly amazing feat of human performance.
Dave is due all of the credit for his amazing performances, but like all champions he is smart enough to surround and provide himself with the right tools to get the job done. It started with his beginning his training at the legendary Westside Barbell under the watchful eye and tutelage of strength training master Louie Simmons at the tender age of 15, and has culminated with his decision to include AtLarge Nutrition supplements in his daily regimen.
