500lb DEADLIFT CHALLENGE!!! Official rules and entry *Prizes listed*

[Stubborn]

You've no doubt seen the 225lb DL for reps contest on the G&O board and in light of that we feel it necessary to have a REAL DL contest!

The GetBig.com 500lb Deadlift for reps competition is ON! Sponsored by AtLargeNutrition.com & PROWRISTSTRAPS.com

The rules are simple:

- Videos must be submitted before February 28th.

- You must be able to see the whole movement from floor to lockout in your video

- Please list your screen name somewhere in the video. A piece of paper with your name, the date, and GetBig.com written on it will do fine.

- 5 Plates and a 2.5 on the side is the only acceptable setup. Please make this visible.

- Just do as many as possible in 3 minutes without ever letting go of the bar!

- Rest where you choose, top or bottom, but you must keep your hands on the bar and feet flat on the floor at all times.

- 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 and the weight starts on the floor.

- No gloves, hooks, briefs, or suits. Can use knee wraps, belt, and wrist wraps (if you must).

- No tape or tacky allowed.

- In the event of a tie, the judges will decide upon a tie breaker suited to this contest.

We need as many as possible!

[The Luke]

Seriously guys... I doubt there are five people on the G&O who can even manage a single with 500.

I take it this is a contest for the roid boys?



The Luke

[thewickedtruth]

HAHA it just means if you can get one or better you're in the running then! I know there's abunch of dudes on here that pull big numbers... I don't think it'll be hard to get people to do it. And you can enter your name in the hat at anytime!

I could do it...not a roid boy either.  Depending on how the meet goes on the 19th, Ill throw down on this...but my conventional pull blows.

[Geo]

[Matt C]

can we have a seniors division @ 455 ?

I second the motion for a 455 division. 

[thewickedtruth]

sponsors feel 500lbs is the number that seperates the men from the boys thus far...


So jason does that mean yuo're in? You could just give us a handful and be in on it on your next max day...

I WILL ALSO BE PERSONALLY DONATING A GRIPPER (COC SIMILAR GRIPPER) FOR THE COMPETITOR WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF REPS WITH STRAPS! THAT WAY YOU CAN TRAIN YOUR BITCH HANDS WHILE WEENING YOURSELF OFF THE STRAPS!
