Just wanted to bump back a bit to this thread. The day I posted I started playing with the large superbands and my deadlift. I didn't do this alone, I grabbed someone else and took him with me. I am 6'1" and he is almost 6'5". After about four weeks he went up from 345 to 375 and I finally...

OK, that was a great link. I guess I should have checked it out b4 I posted. I agree with the hex bar thing, I usually start my people out on it if you have one available to you.

It sounds like this one is good for you, but somewhere I have a three piece series where Eric Cressey breaks down the SLDL the RDL and the Sumo. I'm sure if you went to his sight you could find it. If not let me know and I'll dig it out and forward it to you or try posting the links here. Cressey is...

I just have to keep returning to this thread! I was called out in my own gym, I posted a challenge on the board and posted an 805 rack pull and someone came in and beat it. So I bucked up and pulled 850 today. Without tieing weight to the bar I could not possibly add anymore weight. My safety clips ...

Hey guys, back from the depths here reading these posts. I have a guy in the gym swearing by this iso-pure stuff so I thought I'd come to my favorite discussion sight to find out the in ands outs of iso-pure. Cant say my questions were completely answered, I was looking for purity and processing que...

Agreed, if you can hold it longer than 5 seconds you didn't use enough weight. I'm usually a fraction under lockout, watch those elbows and knees...

I know the archives are getting larger by the week but I'd suggest to everyone just to browse back through them for reference reasons. Es...

Many use only two a night, and then surge at specific times.

Best to you, Steve.
Thank You.

I should know this by now and this is good info here..How much DHEA is in 3tabs of AN? I'm looking at the banned substance list for a competition and DHEA in excess of 50mg per day is illegal. :shock:

I use the resistance bands with handles. I run it underneath the frame of our benches then hook the handles outside the weight on the bar. A few snaps of the band underneath the bench to make sure it's even. GO Now our new power racks have pegs for this on bench and squat. I've "looped" th...
