That's nothing. I use that weight for workout reps of 10. :angry:

The best feeling in the world is the feeling you get after a tough set of squats after you step back from the power rack and throw up all over the floor.

Its tough popping your hips in with that much weight. That and to hold onto that much weight is tough, especially at lockout.

He wasn't even wearing a DL suit. Just a belt.

All I have to say, if I pulled it that high....and didn't get it.....i'd be seriously pissed off lol


I don't think suits help much in the dl anyways....more for support.

Ya very minimal help. I think he might start using a suit to break the 1000lb barrier.

what was his 1st lift? I assume his 2nd lift was 937...i bet if he did 1001 as first lift he may have gotten it....those 2 sets killed his back...it was pointless to even try...I am shocked he got it off the ground...

The first lift was around 830-850lbs. Not too sure though.
