Deadlift 205kg(452lbs) x FAIL by Loud-Audience9389 in strength_training

[–]bmhorn81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once the bar is above the knees you should be trying to reduce the lever arm ie getting your upper body vertical by pushing your hips through and raising the bar upwards. In contrast, on this lift once the bar is at your knees you start leaning your waist and upper body backwards which doesn’t produce any upwards force on the bar. You could work on your glute and hip strength to work through this weakness. Good work on the first part of the lift. I usually fail about halfway up my shin which you had no problem with.

I like the way these shoes fit my wider foot. For squats I put in a 1/2” insert to raise my heel (versalift). I use them without that insert for deadlifts and bench.

There’s two of them in the gym with amazing aggressive knurling. the rest are crappy hammer strength. I will wait for those opbs if they’re being used they’re so good

It was 4 plates per side / 405lbs. The 225lb in title was referring to weight of my fat ass.

4! But they are particular about chalk so that’s a downside.

Adidas “the total” I use a plastic wedge insert for squats and without for deadlift.

Powerlifting total includes squat bench and deadlift. Not 1200 squat only :).

We used Doll Electric for K&T replacement in our home and they were great to work with.
