Author Topic: New Personal Best - Deadlift today 400 lbs (Read 2442 times)

Stark · « **on:** March 01, 2008, 05:40:31 AM »

I'm not blessed to be amazing strong, things like these never came easy to me, I look a lot stronger and always have been than I am, so I try to balance it with being as strict with my lifts as possible and not ego lift at all.
But one thing that has bothered me forever was the that I never managed to deadlift 400lbs that's 4 wheels each side.

Today for some reason I tried again and booooooooooooooooooooooo ooom

Very happy right now.

Im about to go deadlift, i wantd to go light today, 400lbs sounds like a nice round number, 4 sets of 15 will be a good pump.

You have no idea how long I tried it, half way through my lift I was sure I'm fail again but than
it slowly came up and than I locked out

Was all alone in the gym so I even could do the Ronnie : YEAAAAAAAAAAAA BABY!!! LIGHTWEIGHT thing

I've dont it once I want to do it again.

You will get 4 a side easy. Pretty much everyone 75kg plus should be able to pull 400

i did i once when my father went with me to the gym, i normally do 315 for reps but i put 440 in just to impress him, and did one, it was a TOTAL ego lift but i did it and my dad was really proud of me!

It's crazy how much the mind plays with you when you are lifting, I still believe that I could lift far more if I would
learn how to concentrate propper, but I always had an issue since a small child to really focus really concentrate.

Or like Bluto says... to go into the Zone
