I send your vids around to my friends to either cut them down or give them goals, depending upon my mood.

Those deads, the thing is, you stand there like a perfect "X" and then crank out deadlifts I've only ever seen fatass powerlifters (and I'm not hating on the fatass powerlifters, some of them are my bestest buddies) hammer out.

Lifts like a powerlifter, looks like a bodybuilder... DAMN!

I had a guy on another forum tell me my pulls look awkward and that I should pull in my stance a little... I started to think about it and then I noticed he was 18 years old.

Um, the "X" thing... (prepare for deep thought)...

The universal properties and structural integrity of a triangle intrigues me…

i.e.
What makes a triangle so strong?

Easy:
The moments at each vertex are negated by opposing moments from the other members.

So, if a triangle is sufficient to the load placed upon it, it cannot be collapsed.

IDK if this even really applies to weight lifting but the contemplation flows through my mind every time I line up with my sumo stance. It works for me.

So whaddaya think about that? lol

Well congratulations and good luck!!!!

HeavyBomber · 04-24-2009, 09:22 PM

Did some light recovery lifting yesterday. The meet is tomorrow. I have 12 paid, four of which are women. Three are driving more than 100 miles...

I expect that I'll probably have three or four more sign up at weigh in. It should be a good meet. Oh yeah, I have eight deadlifters which is quite rare.

chiquita6683 · 04-24-2009, 09:33 PM

Sounds good! That'd be fun to watch, I know you have to be excited.

Thank you

The meet was awesome! A lot of energy and enthusiasm and from what I could tell the lifters all felt good and excited. We had well over fifty spectators and a lot of people just looking in to see what all the commotion was about.

I will be posting vids on my site and in my log soon.

Here's my deadlifts:

675 was rough. The problem was not my lockout strength, it was the fact I was losing my grip and was going to drop it.
