I said I would post a video of my next stiff-legged deadlift session...
« on: August 12, 2007, 12:28:51 PM »
In the PR thread I mentioned I got 405 lbs x 20 last Sunday.  I was still a bit sore in the hamstrings from that session but wanted to try my new camera and to verify my claims.  This video is of my doing 495 lbs x 10.  I probably had 1-2 more in me, but I didn't want to go too nuts.

Are they better to do from the floor? For years I stop a couple inches from the ground and continue. I guess I have been doing them wrong :-[

I don't know that it makes a huge difference if you do them from the floor or a few inches short.

Thanks all!  Note, no belt.  I did use straps and I always do when I go over 3 reps or so.  The hook grip just doesn't like higher reps.

Good lifts.  Waiting for our residence "downer" to come on here and say something bad about them

Lol, NO!  I wonder what I could get...but not that much!  I would feel like such utter shit after a set like that.  The 405 x 20 made me feel shitty enough...

Very impressive. Wouldn't for the life of me even go near to doing something like that. My lower back is sore just getting out of bed in the morning.  :D

Thank you.  I am also drug-free.  Really and truly.  One of these days I may get on some shit and see what I can really do...

Anyway, I very much appreciate the compliment.

You shouldn't.

You're one helluva deadlifter, and IMO could probably hang with the best in the world. You definitely have the talent for it.

I'd love to see you start doing some meets, and I wouldn't be surprised to see a mid 700 lbs from your ass in a year or so.

Consider that Wade Hooper, Cieri, Ribic or Gillingham didn't start to post their best lifts until they were well into their 30's.

Inspiring, and a clip I will use for motivation for a long time. Thanks Mason.


And you did it, despite working 12 000 hours a week... ;D

Upper back yes. He has most likely conditioned his body to handle it just fine.

Excellent lifting Chris - looks like you're built for that type of exercise with the longer arms and shorter legs but even so it's impressive nonetheless.  :)
