broke the schools deadlift record - Sunday, January 20, 2008 11:58 AM ( #1 )

So im pretty excited not really but i broke the schools deadlift record at the 140 weight class. The old record was 365 and i deadlifted 385. I really want to get my deadlift to 400+ but damn i put on 10 more pounds to try 395 and damn it felt like so much more.

that's great, 385 at 140lbs.. not much to complain about.. try loading the bar with 405 and do rack pulls from a little below the knee.. do it for a few weeks, "3-4" adding 5lbs each time you lift and i'll bet money you'll be hitting 405 from the ground within a month..

ok so i think i figured out why my deadlifts where so high. Our school has always used the deadlift bars. So when i was looking at a deadlift program i found out the use the straight bar things for deadlifts. So i looked it up and its harder to deadlift with straight bars so from now on im going to use on of them. I will max with one of them when i go back to school and tell ya my max for that.

oh u were using a hex bar? yea from what ive seen that adds about 50-100lb. onto ur deadlift (its probably more about % though). i could prob. DL around 365 with a hex bar since my DL max with a straight bar is 300+

Yeah are there any people that could deadlift more with a straight bar then a hex bar. When we go back to school wednesday if we lift ill max with a straight bar then post that in my stats instead of the one with the hex bar.

I know why you're so good at deadlifts. It's because you do cleans as well. Cleans significantly build more explosive pulling power off the floor which directly translates to a much stronger deadlift. As soon as my shoulders stop hurting, I will be doing power cleans as well.

Great job though!

lol the record at our school for hexbards is 465, the person weighs just under 200lbs. straight bar however, well im pretty sure im the only person in that gym doing straight bar.

last time i maxed on hexbar i got 325, i think i'll start my maxes around the end of march

first day with no buds, 11/17, need a new job. 1 down 13 to go.
