I mean, I am envisioning a 19th-century wagon wheel as the weight, but of course there must be variation in weight and all, so I am not sure what this would mean. Is it a higher starting position because of a bigger plate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh wow - so it is a higher starting point, so I guess the opposite of a deficit lift. Hope to get out there sometime - probably won't be next month for me but you are becoming THE grip destination of the West Coast and I really want to get out there for one of your comps. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
