That is one strong lift especially for his bodyweight! I wonder how he got his grip strength so strong? When using alternate grip I almost dropped the bar with only 190kgs.

cheesey dude no doubt about it

He uses a hook/pinch grip i believe.

Very strong dude.

Any of my gimmicks in this thread that have said other wise do not reflect my own opinion.

this impresses me too, he look in shape, not like a power lifter at all, yet very strong.

yea, have you tried even deadlifting 315 with Double overhand grip and no straps, i can't fucking do it.

with alternate grip i can deadlift 405x2 but with double overhand like layne is using i can barely move 315 inches off the ground.
His grip strength is ridiculous.

Hook grip. You put your thumbs under your first and second fingers. It hurts like hell but once you get used to it, it is good. If you ever loose it though it just pops out... no chance to grind out a rep if your grip goes.

He did that weight no straps with double overhand grip. Very impressive. Maybe I should start doing my lifts "for the troops" to break 405?

Holy shit what stereotyping. Bodybuilders have bigger guts than powerlifters nowadays.

And oh yeah, all the armless/legless/headless marines will thank you and your lift, Layne.

that's not double overhand. it's a hook grip.

Just to corret myself so I'm not completely stereotyping myself.

If we compare bodybuilders and powerlifters within the same weightclass. They might have even bigger guts. There.

Layne has to be the most dedicated guy out there.

PHD in protein synthesis, never misses a meal, never goes out partying.

Gotta respect that

Sounds like he's missing out on many of life's great pleasures.

I wonder if he had failed what this would mean for the troops?

that would mean total failure for the troops.

What in the world does that have to do with "The Troops".

I can't believe this guy - he acts and looks like a total turd in the video. His physique in contest shape is impressive, but his little act is ridiculous. Good lift, but this still registers as an EPIC FAIL.

Did you appreciate the lift more because you are a Marine?

Bast175 · « **Reply #46 on:** May 26, 2009, 09:13:29 PM »

let's hope that Layne deadlifts 665lbs so the troops can come home safe.

Didn't that salute at the end of the clip inspire you? Keep up the good work, Layne! Soldier on!

Layne is pretty amazing
100% natural

Sexual Mustard · « **Reply #49 on:** May 26, 2009, 09:53:37 PM »

watching the ridiculous, stompy, meathead act before his lifts almost makes me support Planet Fitness' policy.

Not serious, but you know what I mean
