The only thing I think is beyond doubt is that Layne deadlifted 690. The mark stands on its own, forget the rest. Strong bastard. The end.

Hey Van.........Any further comment on how you said Layne uses a special "Kung Fu Grip" when he deadlifts because using straps make you weaker in the pull. And that you can actually pull 100 lbs more without straps ?

Yeah, I didn't even look at the video before commenting. I just assumed based on Sev's comment that he did it without straps. So my bad.

However, using straps will reduce the amount you can pull for many powerlifters. Just ask a sample of deadlift specialists (powerlifters). For a few straps can improve their dead, if grip is the limiting factor.

Yes, I can pull 100lbs more without straps. Sitting down adjusting your straps doesn't allow for a 'grip and rip' technique. You can't pull in as much air either before starting the lift. The less time you spend in the starting position the better.

I haven't seen Layne say his grip often fails with a hook grip. Who knows, maybe it does. I think using straps is more of a comfort issue for him. 700 resting on the thumb isn't comfortable.

Hold on a sec.  I've seen your pic...the one where you're wearing a cowboy hat and look all of 180 pounds.

Sorry, but you have zero credibility.

That's bullshit...take the case of Freddy Roach, he wasn't a great boxer but he's the best boxing coach around.

Are you saying that some people think that Albert Einstein should have been 324 lbs up on stage in contest condition with shredded glutes at a height of 5' 9¼"?

No, i was actually being serious. I have a diploma of fitness and am a qualified fitness specialist.

I would say that my knowledge is better than most on said topics.

Layne is one real strong dude and does have a great physique.  I think he is natural too, no reason to not believe him, he doesn't have the look of someone on gear, even low dosages.  Don't know if I would have white lighted those deadlifts though...

As mentioned in this thread, Layne does have very long arms so he is at a mechanical advantage for this lift.  Not that it makes it non-impressive, I'm just saying it makes sense that he would dominate this lift.
