Good for him......I'm strapping up. I did two sets of 405 1 for 10 raw and one wrapped for 8. I went up to 455 for 6 wrapped....I'm glad somebody got us rolling.

Unstrapped should win over strapped I'd imagine....regardless of reps?

no.  10 with straps is greater than 3 without.

I pulled it for 4 from a 3" platform the other day.  That was the first time I have done them in a while.  I will get more the next time I do them.  I am alternating them with pulls from the floor right now to get my leg drive going again.

has all that reppin with 225 done you good or bad chris?

do you really need to go past the rom required to get more drive from the floor? i mean, wouldn't heavy squats or partial squats give you the stability and knee, glute extension power from the floor?

yes...platform deads are great for strengthening speed and power off the floor on a regular dead. Do them for a month and see the difference. They really force you to learn to drive with your legs.

Partial squats work nicely as well.  My left knee has been acting up a bit so I am avoiding heavy partials right now.

Actually, I only did the 225 for reps once.  I then did 315 for reps and that was it for the high rep stuff.

I'm sure you can do it, as well as many others here, but can you do it on video and get it posted on the internet?   Seems to be taking some studs around here an awful long time.

Don't forget that I'm still working on getting that 500 lb single... my squat weight went up recently (a full 20 lbs), so it's not yet a foregone conclusion that I can't do it.


Question:
Is sumo style acceptable for us midgets with a 6'' range of motion?
