Timo Tuukkanen Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 From todays grip training session, had a good feeling with Fatbar DL 160 and 170kilos so tried PR 180kg... Had to do it 3 times because of "technical problems with mobile phone camera": friend missed camera shooting TWO times But finally got it on tape... Sorry about the quality of video and sound, taken with Nokia mobile.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

climber511 Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Congrats on a huge pull!

JAU1985 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Haha, just so you know I was only making a Joke. I don't want any confusion with the difference in native languages. You sir are awesome, I'm just jealous is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoC#3 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks everyone! Would be nice to know other "gripsters" Fatbar DL PR's though, inform here! I train this exercise with the strongman guys who use the gym. Here are our bests: (2'' axle to full lockout, with no hitching.) Mark - 175kg Me - 165kg Ben - 155kg Radek - 145kg Not sure what the other lads managed, but only 4 of us managed over 140kg.

Teemu I Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) I guess no hitching means not dragging it against the shins and thighs, making the lift easier. Edited June 12, 2009 by Teemu I Quote Teemu Ilvesniemi, Finland My Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoC#3 Posted June 12, 2009 Share Posted June 12, 2009 No re-bend of the knees to regrip and then finish the pull. This is a hitched normal deadlift: When the DO DL was contested at the euros last year a hitch was cause for failure. Don't worry though, your lift was good!!!

Timo Tuukkanen Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 Your welcome mate. Any goals for the end of year on this lift? To pull little bit more than others in Europe... Seriously speaking 200kg pull would be nice on Finnish open-competition at fitness-expo 3-4.10, other 3 parts of competition are new RT, Grippers CCS-set, Europinch.

1stCoC Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 After seeing Rch and Tex lately getting lots of air time with the 202lb. 3" handle Arnold's Circus Bell and Richs 511 double overhand deadlift on a 2"bar I would think since he is even better at reps he would come very close or would do 182.5 Kilo for 10 reps (400lb about 10 reps) I also want to push him "a bit" with the 172lb Inch Bells and see what feats he can do with them. I "caught" him the other day doing bent over rows for reps with a pair of them( no straps ,strict)).( I saw him bent row 585X3 last night and Rolling Thunder deadlift 252 with either hand using the new Ironmind handle)) I think if he could get them( The Inch's) to his shoulders he would press them at the same time.RS Quote Richard Sorin, Sorinex Equipment SORINEX.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to clean 1 Inch (and jerk), let alone think about 2 and press. I can't wait.

1stCoC Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I think any implement that has a thick handle is relevent and useful to increase thick bar deadlifts, The question was asked in relation to what others can or have done.
