Nice! Are your hands big enough to grip 6 plates? 6x11lb would be awesome!

Thanks guys.

My hands can grip 7 11lbs plates.

I should be able to get 6 with practice, especially considering that this lift was done after 2 days baack to back grip training (including 2hp).

Thank you for all the encouraging words. Gazza and Dan have you done 6 10s/11s? I certainly think both you guys have the potential.

I only bend nowadays mate im a 1 trick pony :D Once im back at full power im gonna see where bending takes me then i might go back into other grip stuff.

My mate Maxwell fancies his chances at the 6 x 11lbs plates tho.

Anyway mate nice work on the 5 x11s onward and upward bro.

Gazza - if your mate does it upload it, it certainly would be an inspirational lift to watch. When i tried 6 earlier today, i didn't even break the floor.

bigmatt - thanks

Doesn't Sorin suposedly have a 7-3/4" hand? And has lifted 6-10's ? So it's fair to assume that handsize doesn't matter too much on this? I would've thought it does. My hands are 7-1/4" and everything feels wide, lol.... :)

There's hand length and hand spread - not always the same thing as it pertains to wide pinch lifting.

This list of names proves how hard 6 10s or 11s actually is - huge respect to anyone who even gets close.

Too easy for You! Go for 6 AND 7 plates!

Chris is right on the handsize - handspread thing: same hand lenght does not mean that the difficulty level of the lift is the same for both persons.

Burkhard Macht - thanks.

Yeah they were definately 5s. 8 5s if memory serves me correctly. Big Steve and Jedd also did it.
