Yes, it makes the range of motion slightly shorter which makes it a little easier.


yes this is what came to my mind.. i will try this weight next week and see how many reps i can do.. my first target is 10 112 :)

Fixed.

On Tuesday I did 295X18 plus two cheat reps for deadlift and my goal is to hit 315X20 in 12 weeks.  I think it is a realistic goal.





thx matt!!.. your video inspired me to try it one week ago or so!!.. actually this is exactly 130 kg (187 pounds).. i did 16-17 reps but my friend who was shooting me clicked late on the camera after i had already done 1 or 2 reps ;D.. will try it again till i do 20 reps Gods willing :P

Damm Sherif,
                  You look like shit lately. You are really short, I was right about that, you have 10 inch arms, no shoulders, a big nose, bitch tits, you look like a shrimp. :)




No wonder ur so jealous. ;) ;D

282 pounds, not 187. The conversion is 2.2 lb/kg

this is a typing mistake,.. i meant 287 pounds (130 Kg) not 187 pounds (84 kg).. 282 pounds = 128 kg not 130 kg..

thx for correcting me :)..

Looks like a good gym to train at. In the end, all you need are weights, barbells and a good work ethic.
HAHA, RON.....

totally agree with you, at advanced gyms you also find free weights and all but the atmosphere of hardcore gyms makes you even stronger :)..

when i cant go to the gym i train at home where i have only a chinup, a bench, a bar, a z bar, & dumbles and also some small tools like the twister bar and the stretcher and belive me i train as hard as when i am in the gym if not harder!!..

A contest like that is better suited to the teen section on BB.com.

A deadlift contest should never allow bouncing the weights off the floor IMO.

Strong lifts none the less.
