Hub Lifted A 45 Today

[steve0]

Today I finally hub lifted a new 45 I just purchased. It came up easier then I thought it would and I got it on each of my last three sets. Taking on the blob next, any advice? I have small hands, just under 8" from the base my wrist to the tip on my middle finger.

Congrats! just under 8" hands aren't small at all, well above average for sure.

Today I did some more hub work. I got 47.5 up for a five second hold. 50 came off the floor but I could not lock out with it. 5 easy reps with each hand with the 45. What is considered a good number on this lift. I have different sized plates and was wondering what is considered the standard of hub sizes for this lift.

Depends on the type of plates your hubbing....deep hub?? Shallow hub?? Tapered hub? Wide hub??

Here are the hubs that I use. The Jack Lalane plates are just under 3/4" on their hubs and slightly taperes. The gray 35 is 1". The 45 is about 1/8" shy of 1". I add weights using 1 1/4 lb plates. Its kind of funny, my new goal is to lift one of the Jack Lalane 45 I have. I can barely budge the Lalane 35 off the ground.
