Me deadlifting 635 lbs x 2 reps
« on: January 01, 2007, 07:09:17 AM »
I said I would make the video and I did.  I probably could have gotten the 3rd but I pussed-out.

I did this totally raw, no belt, straps, or anything else.  I also did a complete reset between reps (no bounce to make the 2nd or 3rd reps easier). 

This was my 2nd workout back to conventional deadlifting and I will do another video in a few weeks with 655 lbs or more for a double.

I honestly don't know.  The best I have done thus far totally raw is 675 lbs.  I would guess I could get 25-50 lbs out of equipment but it is hard to say.

great lift...its strange though that you didn't keep your head up.  especially with that kind of weight, its pretty easy to get a bad neck injury. 

anyways seems like you know your shit

Isn't hook grip "cheating" as well? Doesn't really have anything to do with strength, just pain tolerance. Your thumb becomes a "strap" in essence.

That said I'll be practicing these as well.

Incredible lift using a conventional grip.  Someone here compared the hook grip to using straps.  It still takes a great grip strength using a hook grip.  Straps gives a lot of guys a 50 to 100lbs difference in what they can deadlift.  That was some lift and that is serious strength.

Excellent hand strength, Chris. Can't wait for the squad to comment on this one, and what myriad 'flaws' they find with your lifts.  ::)

You didn't really lock the weight out. Solid lift nonetheless.
