	2008/11/13, 08:51 PM thank you guys. felt like i had another 10-20 lb easy in me. will need to see if I can hang on to the weight with just chalk. I am thinking of trying hook grip maybe but that's extremely painful. lol great to see u on here gatormade. 2-100lb 10-45lb 2-10 lb

Tinnuk Posts: 291 Joined: 2005/12/19	2008/11/14, 03:07 PM I'm just wondering too, your back looked a little bent when you made that lift; how'd you manage to pull that without hurting yourself?
Devinm Posts: 270 Joined: 2006/06/01	2008/11/14, 06:42 PM congratulations. is that elite? also, i was looking at your other videos and i noticed your squat is i think 240 pounds less than your deadlift... seems a little odd to me.. -------------- Veni,Vidi,Vici.= I came, I saw, I conquered.- Ceasar

	2008/11/14, 10:00 PM I am naturally more adapt at deadlifts than squats. I lift with shoulders forward. I got a couple injuries that have been nagging me on squats for forever so that's part of the huge disparity. Yea generally deadlift>squat but for me it's getting to the point of rediculous. I have been trying to break 500 squat barrier for a while. Had 2-3 over the head rolls with the bar. lol... if i can replicate it with just chalk then i think it's def in the elite category...esp with no gear or aas.

However a "longer" built person( long arms legs etc) will always be a better puller.imo BTW my coach pulls double over hand and is close to pulling 700 in gear. He has pulled 670ish wigh double overhand. -------------- \"The eight laws of learning are explanation, demonstration, imitation, repetition, repetition, repetition, repetition, and repetition\"

	2008/11/17, 10:01 PM didnt really fix the hitching/ramping. I just got stronger. Had I got another 20-30 lb heavier I prolly would have been doing the prior....which to me is not a huge deal as I am not a competitive PLer so those set of rules dont really affect me. and I have never gotten injured hitching/ramping..

rev8ball Posts: 3,081 Joined: 2001/12/27	2008/11/18, 11:46 AM Hook grip is really tough initially; gotta drop the pounds in order to get used to them, and it may take awhile. But, ultimately, you should be able to pull more. I only know of two ranked competitors that use it regularly (and with success): Brent Howard, who just won the WABDL Worlds, and Brad Gillingham, who isn't even human. ============ Quoting from menace3000: thank you guys. felt like i had another 10-20 lb easy in me. will need to see if I can hang on to the weight with just chalk.

wrestler125 Posts: 4,619 Joined: 2004/01/27	2008/12/03, 10:07 PM Good pull man, looked pretty clean. If you're considering switching to hook grip, he might not be my coach but Misha pulls that way and just posted a video of something rediculous like 860 for 3, so it can be done. Of course, if you aren't competing in powerlifting and you know your grip isn't weak, then I don't think the straps are really that big a deal. -------------- SQUAT MORE ~Jesse Marunde Blood Guts Sweat Chalk
	2008/12/03, 10:57 PM thanks steve. yea i got a badly hitched 745 deadlift yesterday...and had no trouble holding to 700 chalk only yesterday...i will try 725 in 4 weeks to see if i can get a clean chalk only video...
wrestler125 Posts: 4,619 Joined: 2004/01/27	2008/12/04, 12:21 AM When we gunna see you competing? You get your bodyweight up 10lbs and you'd be a threat to the lw pros in strongman.

Why I ask is besides weakness work I was thinking strapping a final rep would help to make the other set get stronger meaning use it on max days for 1 more max with straps to strengthen legs for the non strapped lifts. As wrestler says if my grip is there then the straps are not that big of a deal and with the thinking I said above it makes sense to me as it should help strengthen then non strap lift. -------------- Knock-Um Down & Keep-Um Down!

	2008/12/05, 08:12 PM I have no idea what my grip can hold. The difference might not be all that much but it's just one thing less to worry about while pulling. I might compete spring or summer if there's something close to where I live. I might compete in police/fire/military PL...I know alltime deadlift record is 620 so should be interesting.. Thanks Ka. I still dont know what's an alltime tested/raw deadlift max.
