A Romanian style PR for me. No belt. Hook grip.
I am nursing a quad injury, thus no quad drive and the Romanian/stiff-legged style.
It is 625 lbs. The last 45s on each side are black and kind of hard to see:
-
dude, no offense, thats strong as fuck but u think rounding your back like that is healthy?
-
Very strong and impressive.
But why do you keep referring to these lifts as 'stiff legged'?
Looks like pretty straight up deadlifting to me, with a rounded back.
A few guys back in the day actually lifted a bit like you do, in competition.
-
nice,good strength !

Hedge, I am using no quad drive. My legs are locked at the knee until the end of the movement. What would you prefer I call it? If I use quad drive to execute the pull I can get quite a bit more weight. Anyone who would deadlift with no quad drive in a meet would be an idiot. I am doing it now because I have a quad injury.

For most people yes. Do you see that big lump on my mid/upper back right where it bends? That is muscle. I have developed it over time, thus lifting in that fashion is not "bad" for me.

nice lift man

what muscle in the "mid-upper back"? you're wearing a t shirt, you can't see shit, nice pull though.
-
Goddamn your arms are long. Good pull.

hook grip! SHAME ON YOU! >:(

That looked like hell on the hams! What did you do to the quad?
Chris is a strong bastard any way you cut it!

I'm not sure. The injury is on my left leg right where the quad ties into my hip. I trained through it for a while until such time as the pain became unbearable and I felt a "shift" at the bottom of a heavy squat. I am going to get some deep tissue massages as simply not training my quads for the last 3 weeks has helped, but not solved the issue. My quads have shrunk a bit and it is driving me NUTS!
