Funny I do not recall a single person on this board having an issue with Matt using Straps. The guy in the first video is actually a member who talked shit yeah he is lifting more but he is also using straps. Everyone is using straps most are in belts several are in sleeves and compression singlets for fuck sake one dude is wearing elbow wraps as well.

The difference is, all those fellows are pulling 2.75-3x+ bodyweight, so you give them some leeway. Even Matt C was very close or at 2.75x of BW. You are pulling barely 2x. No one is giving you props for that after 25+ years on steroids.

Nothing wrong with straps. Or without. It's impressive to lift without obviously. But straps don't do as much as the rest of your body to move a lot of weight. Eddie's 500kg deadlift was impressive even with straps because nobody else came close to that with or without.
-
Holee fuck you're an insecure bitch. Look at the strongest dudes on Earth using straps! Ok? Use straps to pull weights high school lifters laugh at. We don't give a shit
-
Those guys didn't brag about their grip being their "strongest link" like you did, only to not be able to pull 405 without straps. You are ALWAYS looking for some excuse to puss out and not live up to your own hype. 500 conventional deadlift from the floor without straps. You said you could do 500 with ease and brag about how strong your grip is because you wrassled 30 years ago. Live up to your self aggrandizing bullshit tough guy.

Kindly identify the member in the 1st video.

The joke is using "420" or whatever w/ straps.
130 lbs girls do it.
High school kids do it.

I have used them when younger, now i prefer chalk. It's enough for my moderate poundages, and it doesn't bruise my wrists like i got handcuffed.

I tell you what I can make this easy for you. I can pull 405lbs without straps if you would prefer? But I was planning to pull 455 this weekend as everyone uses straps so I dont see that as anything special. I am not doing both my knee wont hold. I got one heavy lift in the knee. No one wants to make a wager on either despite everyone claiming I cant do it

Matt did like 5 hitches getting that weight up. He also used straps on every posted deadlift on the way there. Not a single member of this board mentioned the straps 1 damn time. I didnt use straps warming up with 315 I used them at 405 to get used to them as everyone uses them when they go heavy. I also did not use a belt! I cant use straps the first time I try something?

This is correct. However 405 is not heavy ;)

99 times out 100, if someone posts something and people talk about straps, hitching or any other lame nitpick, it's because either they can't do it or they can only just and they're looking for a way to discredit it. It's a beta male reaction. If watching a lift makes you want to discredit something, take it to the gym and use it as motivation to get better.
I remember being at a university gym with a friend of mine who did a dip with 30kg weighted and at the time, that seemed godly, so I felt the need to tell him that the only reason he did that is because he was like 5ft 4 and light. I knew it was a bitch move when I did it and I still feel like an ass to this day. Weak.
The only illegit thing about that 425 was the knee caving, asymmetry and then horrendous vocal performance after.
I mean, I don't know about the rest of you, but listening to him go on about his lift as if he'd scaled everest, and knowing I'm quite a bit stronger without steroids.. I just felt better about myself :-)

You're talking shit too, talking about matt c hitching, remember.
He is above you, he is better than you and beyond your criticism.

Bullshit 5 hitches is not nitpicking. I have no desire to push my body to the point of hurting my spine. I am not going to hitch a fucking thing. If I get stuck I am putting it down.

In Brians case he discredited some of MattCs lifts and even made a condescending video for Matt showing him correct form for one particular lift. Discredited a lift cos Matts spotter put his fingers on the bar and I think discredited a lift for him wearing a belt or or singlet or something equally ridiculous. We just like to make sure we hold Brian to his own high standards.

You dont get credit if your spotter helps you. That is not nitpicking. He did it proper the following week and I congratulated him.

Of course hitching is nitpicking. You couldn't do it, so you find something to complain about. You could not hitch that weight up so why bring it up?
You're only talking shit about others because you've seen something you can't discredit by simply being stronger so you bring it up.

That does greatly muddy the water. We could be at the 1/100

"Generally people who have mastered the art of breathing and bracing without a belt will lift 5-15% less than they would if they wore a belt."
So if a belt gives you 10%.....

He (MattC) "got the weight up", didn't he? By your own criteria you use for yourself, that's a "good lift".
Pull something without straps you baby-soft weak kunt.

Hey I am giving Matt credit he got the weight up and no I don't think I could not that I would try once to quadruple hitch it anyway. But absolutely he is the deadlift champ. My point is merely no one here had any issues with Matt using straps not one single poster mentioned it when he posted deadlift after deadlift with straps or hitching. Then I use straps and all of a sudden, it's a lethal crime.

I don't...and you will not see them in any video I have posted. Why is it you claim your grip is so bad ass but you have to use them Brian? Why is this such a hard question for you to answer?

In principle, I agree. But there are accusations that you started this shit. If you did, then you deserve it.

His grip is only strong around 110 pound women. What is this scum fuck claiming to pull on Saturday? 315 for 20 reps like he said he could do? If that’s the case, I will place a bet
-
I don't...and you will not see them in any video I have posted. Why is it you claim your grip is so bad ass but you have to use them Brian? Why is this such a hard question for you to answer?
It's because he can't do any of the things he claimed without them (pull my max for 12 reps, pull 500 lbs).
-
bhank, have you considered grip training exercises?

Can I pull 455 before 500??? Pulling your max for reps doesn't interest me. I know I can lift until I am exhausted what is the point. I would rather try something heavy
-
Hey I am giving Matt credit he got the weight up and no I don't think I could not that
You`re damn right you couldn`t........not even close.

Google is your friend they are recommending use a belt within 85% of your max and claim it can give an extra 5-15%. I will try it on my warmups to see how it feels

British English is international English.
American English is a dialect.
The UK, EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, African countries, India, Pakistan and almost every country which uses English follows British spelling and words.

3.4 times her bodyweight, no straps, very impressive lift for this young lady.
If bhank claims 210 lbs now, this would have meant a 722 lbs deadlift, no straps.

Yes, at 167 pounds she deadlifted almost 600 pounds, no straps.

Trust you to quote GDP think money is the most important thing, by the way if you had earned the money reather than having it gifted you would have a better outlook on life

WRONG
Standard English is the lingua franca globally
its not based on GDP its to based on population
you sir are a fucking moron.
ps- your GDP assertion was a straw man argument and the premise was wrong. you fucking dolt.

I'm sure it's been covered but not one of those guys you posted acted like a compete douchebag, wanna be tough guy making wild claims they couldn't back up. You've done nothing but let your ego instigate problems for you then cried about. All of those guys are or were legit strongman competitors, you are not.

Very impressive lifting 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👊🏻
Most in competition I deadlifted 3.6 x Body weight- Not my strongest lift,
Though Infinitely stronger than a very Weak Fagggot Bhanky,
& lifted without straps.
-
Unfortunately deadlift gripping strength is almost untrainable, you are limited by anatomy. I never once missed a deadlift due to grip, could probably hold onto at least 100lbs over my max, but several champions have said they left plenty on the platfotm due to grip issues, I think Kirk Karwoski was one of them. The strongmen use straps because no one can hold onto 500 kilos. The thinner deadlift bar was one trick to inflate deadlift numbers but the IPF never allowed them.
-

Hankins has shown massive delusions. He has claimed to have had at least 4 thousand fights in school, says he could ragdoll Mike Tyson and thinks he can beat GSP in an MMA fight. Last year he delusionally claimed he could "get up off the couch right now" and deadlift 500 "with ease". He also claims to have an incredible grip due to his high school wrasslin even though all evidence shows his grip is absolute shit because this is the first time in his entire life he has attempted to lift any heavy weights and he needs straps to do it. So I have hounded him on this subject for over a year now because this is one delusion he could actually face down. Maybe he could become honest after failing at this but it won't happen. He's moved the goalposts from a 500 lb dead to 455 with straps. There's no fucking way he can deadlift 500 without straps and deep down he knows it and will cower away from it but hold the lie in his heart that he "could".

I could've pulled more , only my grip was at its limits- Having wide hands
& fairly short fingers isn't conducive to a great grip for deadlifting.

@Bhanks - Does the Mrs. use straps when she's plowing your shitpipe?

if he tries and fails 455 we will never find out about it, after all hes NEVER failed a lift and he will never admit to that let alone post a video of it.
