POWERLIFTING FORUM DEADLIFT CHALLENGE!
« on: December 28, 2007, 10:19:16 PM »
haha what do you guys say? There's the 225 challege on the alphabet boards up there..


what about one of our own.. just a straight up 500lb deadlift for reps challenge..

for bragging rights if we can't get a  sponsor or maybe I can talk to some people and see who I can get to jump in it. If we get enough people interested I'm sure it'll be worth it. Call it out if you're in...


I'M IN!  ;D

I like this one. We will need some backing and rules. One of those rules being that you gotta be a regular on GetBig.

If nash gets in on this then we are all screwed, haha!

Pegg will put up a good fight as well, Im sure.

Hedge should definately get in on it.

Lets get an entry list, set a deadline, and get some prizes going.

If you can find another girl to compete with you in 500 for reps competition, so be it! ;D









We should seriously do a Female 225 for reps comp. Thats a decent weight for women, right? It cant be any lighter if it is to be allowed on the PL/Strongman board. Same rules as the 225 for reps on the G&O board.

Any takers? We're gonna need at least 3 competitors. And no whigs, wicked!

HAHAHA we need to get ahold of chris mason and see if he can donate some at large nutrition shit to this..

women can do 225 and men do 500

I think the rules should be belt only..no straps.. just like strongman reps. Do as many as you can... in one minute or should we do it as man as you can period.  They do have time limits in strongman. Hitching can be allowed because they have hitching in the events too!

HAHA yeah nash would own our asses for sure... but hey it'll be fun. Winner takes all..

I say the deadline should end when the other deadlift challenge ends.. the weekend of the arnold!

entries have to show full lockout, see at least 5 wheels on the bar.. none of this perfectly from teh side shit. Chalk acceptable..no straps..belt only.


let's here some ideas..

Well, you should be able to see the whole movement from floor to lockout.

5 wheels and a 2.5 on the side. Means I cant do it at home then, damn!

Just do as many as possible in 3 mins without ever letting go of the bar! Just for sake of not watching a bunch of 5 minute vids of singles.

Rest where you will, top or bottom.

Must be a GetBig regular with at least 100 posts.

Must be conventional, no sumo. Stiff legged and romanian are acceptable as long as its not sumo stance.

Men must use 500lbs, and women use 250lbs.

No straps, gloves, briefs, or suits. Can use knee wraps, belt, and wrist wraps.

No tape or tacky allowed.

And I reserve right to use reverse bands! ;D

WHO'S IN?!

If you guys are having a tough time getting enough people to participate, then why are you putting a post limit?
