Well, my body is taxed from competing last weekend, so tonight's session was basically just playing around a little to get the blood flowing. I figured I'd try a Reeves deadlift, this was my first time trying this. 315 was pretty easy, I bet once my body recovers from competing last weekend I can get 405.
Reeves deadlift Im willing to bet there's alot you havent heard of when it comes to lifting. Nice job there BTO.
Reeves deadlift that's pretty cool actually... I think I'm gonna maybe try to somehow modify a curling bar and see how much I can do... I'm pretty sure I can't even reach the end plates on a standard oly bar with 315 loaded on it
Reeves deadlift Blimey! Good effort bigtallox! Reeves I've seen done normally have a 45 then a smaller plate next to it before larger plates again, so that you can grip the closest in plate. Bigtallox's long arms means he can reach the furthest plates, and he only uses his fingers and doesn't even grip with his thumbs! Strong stuff.
Reeves deadlift HOLY SH_T!! That was impressive. I've really learn to appreciate these StrongMan-type lifts.
