Thanks, I've thought about it but frankly single max lifts kinda scare me, too many training injuries over the years. I figure I'm good for close to a 400 bench, and can squat around 550, so my total would be okay, it might be something to consider
Hey man, loading and unloading the bar must have been a pain huh?
I think I'll use the platform when I attempt my 405 at the end of this month. Set the bars so the distance is the same as when its sitting on the floor.

It was a pain in the ass. My old gym had a contraption that you put under the bar and lifter, then loaded the plates and dropped it down again. My current one is a yuppie gym so they dont even know what a deadlift looks like
Good job on the 600! It may be time to jump into the PL'ing
world. You have a pretty good bench. This coupled with your
DL would make for a good total in a push/pull meet.
Good job with the lift - look forward to seeing a picture of what 600lbs looks like! I hope to be up to 600lbs one day - setting my sights on 500lb DL before Christmas (430lbs at the mo. so maybe a little high?).
I too, go to a yuppie gym where it really takes it out of me to unload the bar at the end. Great CV workout
