Deadlifts!Oh my god..

[b fold the truth]

Don't know what the conversion weight would be...can't really compare. Everyone has a weakness in some part of the deadlift.

I have always done deads from the floor, but for the contest we will be pulling from 18" dead center on bar. It will be just like the old silver dollar deadlift where Kaz pulled a grand I believe.

I think that it does put me at a slight disadvantage over the shorter guys because the 18" could be at their knees or slightly above...shorter range of motion. At 6'2" it is about 2" below my knees. Trying to learn sumo deadlift style. It is a strange and difficult spot for me to pull from...but surely there will be guys in my 300lb class that are taller than I...so maybe I'll have the advantage.

B Fold, I had no idea you were such an elite puller, you are talking about competing in a legit meet, right? 850 would be HUGE considering the best ever is 925, what is your bodyweight?

I am not a powerlifter. I compete in strongman contest. Very different rules...easier than p/l rules. They are much easier and much less strict. P/l is totally harder for the pull.

I currently weigh right around 285 and gaining. Will probably come fairly close to 295 or 300 by contest time...but I have to be in very good shape for the other events as well.

There are several pics of me on here...one under pics of our members and a few under training where I'm doing my events.

I think he means 850 with the centre of the bar at 18 inches. If I understand you correctly you are referring to Gary Heiseys record in powerlifting where the bar is lower to the ground.....this is why I wondered what he would pull using olympic discs.

Somebody correct me if I am wrong....

Its still huge though no matter what

He's got me wondering whether I could roll a car too hehehe.
