Recently? That's pretty gnarly, even for a juiced up midget. :D

New kid I'm training with walked between the benches while a guy was benching....I ripped him a new ass, I'm sure he won't do it again. I hate when people do that shit. >:(
Cmon Chaos, I am 5'9

I had some 65 year old man start yelling. He was like"stop, stop,......put it down,.."
I was repping with 315 on the bench, so I thought fuck something is wrong, so I put the weight up and a said "what",... then he says your going to hurt your back from arching, I was like are you fucking kidding me. then the guy goes back to his bench and reps out with a 10 on each side.

Fortress your cool shit and I feel like a jerk now,lol,... anyhow you do got me beat on deads though cause you don't use straps and I do, I did fourteen reps once at 250lb (5'9) and of course juice to the gills, realistically I can do probably 10 reps with half a bottle of ephedrine lol, at the moment, Some good lifts you have.,,... someone send me a link to your 315 for 25 on squats, damn you go deep,, especially for a tall guy, anyway I apologize as well so we are cool, us Canadians are suppose stick together  8)

Thanks, man.

Maybe some time we can hang and lift some weight. Let me know if you're ever in the east Toronto area.

So you say you saw the YouTube vid (
)? I actually didn't know it had been posted to YouTube.

I have actually done 31 with 315 (I am physically capable of more now ... if I trained specifically for such reps for a few weeks, that is) but when I did this I hadn't done reps over 10 for, like, a year, and I also had made a six-hour drive earlier that afternoon, down from Toronto to Akron, Ohio. Also, before squatting, we did bench, and I hit two sets of 10 with 315 and then, for fun, a single at 405. There was no plan on this day, obviously (ha, ha). It was just a fun time with some buds. We pulled some deads after the squats, too.

Then we ate pizza and drank gallons of Coke and iced tea.

Today I weighed 296 at the gym, just before my squat session. So nude, maybe 292 or something.

Not lean but also not a fatass.

Anyway, yeah, PM me if you're ever in my neck of the woods and wanna do some lifting.

Rob

Fortress claims he can do more then 8 reps on a 5 plates per side deadlifts and says I know shit about deadlifts then he says he finished me, ya with a bunch of words and claims any gimmick can make so I will finish him where it counts,... I know, I know,

INTERNET IS SERIOUS BIZNESS,   ;D........ but cmon guys it's been boring around here lately so I thought it might be some entertainment for my fellow getbiggers, so here is the deal 6 weeks to prep, post video proving who you are and the lift, 5 plate per side for as many reps as you can, loser never post's on getbig again.  8)


JUST FUCKING WITH YOU WES, LOL   ;D

fortress and I are cool so had to change the title, lol.   ;D

Hey, two with five is strong. Most men pull back muscles carrying a pail of water.

Straps? Really? Can you even do a 495 single without straps?

You know, not only do I have a total lack of caring for what you believe or do not believe, but I also know that, if I DID post a video, you'd challenge a) it's not me, b) the plates are fake, c) I am not, infact, drug-free (and want a verified drug-test profile mailed to you), etc.

So even if I did give two shits about what you believe, what would be the point? As is, I'd have to sacrifice an important deadlift session to appease someone I don't even know (I am always following a program, being a competitive powerlifter and all, and very rarely do reps of 10 or more) and trouble my sometimes-training-partner (I almost always lift alone, getting spots from random gym members), Peanuts, to come to the gym so he could use his camera to videotape my doing it. (As I have said, I don't have a cell phone or camera; never have had one).

About four months ago I pulled a tight, controlled (many would say my lowering speed on each repetition was almost a negative) 10 reps with exactly 500 (495 plus a 2.5 on each side) and without wrist straps. I think I perhaps had two more, if I pushed it. I had competed just recently and was just horsing around for a few weeks and decided I wanted to officially do 10 at 500, just for kicks.

Fourteen reps at 500 is a serious freak out performance, man. And guess what? I believe you! Did you use straps? Just wondering.

With straps and a faster lowering speed (but still controlled), I can see myself doing maybe between 15 and 20.

I have officially pulled 650 (raw) and was all set to yank a seven during my last meet (the 2012 Ontario Provincial Championship) when I had to ditch the deadlift component after injuring my knee on my second squat attempt and realizing it was NOT ready to pull big numbers off the floor. Hurt like a bitch warming up with 135 for shit sakes. Sucks. Next time.

You're a big puller, dude. Congrats. And if I ever DO videotape something such as what you challenge, I will certainly post it. But as I say, you wouldn't believe it anyway ...

Stay strong, Onetimehard. Oh, and I apologize for insulting your knowledge about the deadlift. I didn't know you were an accomplished puller. I jumped the gun.

    

      
Long-winded meltdown.
