Famed strongman Hjalti Arnason is promoting this year's Icelandic Powerlifting Championships, and he is working on a deal to broadcast the contest on the Internet. Icelandic powerlifters are continuing to march toward big numbers for the contest on May 20th, and Audun Jonson just squatted 330 kg for "5 reps easy" in training. Jonson, a 125-kg class competitor, had a previous best for five of 320 kg, and his PR single is 405 kg.
