I dit it - 200KG Deadlift video! Wohoooo!

[Swede!]

Maybe you guys lift in freak gyms but I hardly ever see anyone DLing anywhere close to 2.5 bw and never for more than maybe 4-6 reps.

you should be able to get one at least. If your into heavy lifitng Especially

[Swlabr]

I'm at 2.4.

[devilsmile]

Deadlifting getbiggers: I have recently started deadlifting again after a bit of a break (regular and SLDL) and am finding my grip is giving out fairly quickly (gave out on a working set of 245 for reps last week, my max with straps is probably 350-400).  What can I do to strengthen my weak, feminine hands?

Use chalk, brah! Anything that needs a grip of any kind I use chalk. Trust me  

[chaos]

Anyone I have ever seen lift like that in the gym has been juiced.

Lots of inexperienced people repeating what they're told around here.

[johnnynoname]

Not to pile on but, seriously, that is a deadlift like a donut is a healthy carbohydrate

[johnnynoname]

It's "ego lifting"

you have never seen anyone pull 2.5x bw that isn't juiced?    I had a friend that weighed 80 that pulled 200 when he was 18. didnt even look like he liften, and wasn't on aas thats for sure lol

if you're on aas and into lifitng heavy you should rep 2.5x bw... if not, lose weight

[devilsmile]

Why won't people use CHALK is beyond me  

for example when coleman was deadlifting the 800lbs for 2 reps, I thoght it was strange how he was on the squating positiong for over a minute putting on the straps, and stayed on that position for another minute after that before he finally lifted it.

Me I have to walk around a little and focuse, then go near the bar, position my feet, and then ass down, head up and lift, that's how you should deadlift.

Ironneck got it up and it was a strong lift, I'm not taking away that but it was not a clean lift, is all.

Really? It's beyong you that probably 99.99% of commercial gyms doesn't allow chalk? you would probably get sued in america from using chalk in non SUPER HARCOOROE GRRRR gyms lol

Actually makes me want to video my deadlift now this friday lol , but maby it's better if i jsut add it up in this thread

my gym Back in the day was 50£ for a year. open 24/7 and you could bring your own music and play on the speakers.
Good ol days

even had a old ass tanning bed in a small storage room. Looked like you grilled yourself afterwards. was probably dangerous haha. One little fan on a stool on the side

[chaos]

Actually a lot of gyms will allow chalk if you are respectful with it and not a slob.

Swede apparently you missed the natural part of the 2.5bw lifting convo. I would agree that anyone seriously lifting and juicing should be able to break 2.5bw...but I'm not a juicer.

[Per Se]

Lmfao @ some of you people and your 2.5 bw bullshit...hahaa!

Well I wouldn't consider myself a 'strength guy', and I can do quite a bit more than 2.5 BW, probably 2.7 BW.
I personally believe, to be considered STRONG in deads, you should be able to pull 3 x BW.

Sure you aren't, "chaos", is that even your real name?

[Per Se]

Especially for a natural. I know a guy that competes natural w/suits/gear...he's about my size and pulls around 650.

Don't get me wrong I am by no means putting a limit on myself but to say naturals should be lifting 2.5bw on any lift like its a common practice is kinda lame.

With respect, 650lbs for someone who weighs 280lbs is weak.
Espicially if gear is used.

We have a tanning bed too, lolz , it's 4 euros though, takes only 2 euro coins and lasts 20 minutes maximum.

I used to be the regular there, it was uncommon not to see me go there, that's why I have my natural white color now lol. Perhpas because this summer i was out all day and had natural strong tann from the sun that I haven't wanted that greyish/brown look that it gives in my solarium.

you train hard though. heavy.. And should be able to pull 2.5 easy.. imo..

[chaos]

So all the 220 natural competitors should be pulling 660+

Don't forget we're talking naturals not juicers here.


Wait I forgot I was on getbig, home of the 5x's bw deadlifters and multi-super model banging billionaires....hahaa!!!!

This wasn't the type of tanning bed that you paid for. Didn't have a timer either.

This does makes sense... perhaps the raw power mark comes into play in the heavy weight division when you have to step your game up in order to lift heavy shit.

But we did see the video of the 132lbs guy pullin 600lbs for 2 reps.

[chaos]

Swede I imagine with your range of motion your lifts don't have to move too far.
