Seems like an interesting idea but is quite pricey. I could probably just use my loading pin from ironmind.com and do...
No. He seemed like he was just screwing around. Nothing wrong with having a little fun in addition to all the hard work in the gym.
Haha, yeah that's why I figured this would be a good place to post. I looked in a lot of other places online and I didn't see anyone who had this that goes to the gym religiously.
As an update...
I was just diagnosed with hypothyroidism the other day (not 35+ but found this thread on a search). I was my usual self until I had a really nasty sinus infection in January and lost 5 pounds in 2...
So this all sounds like a good idea but there's something I'm confused by. Why are these supposed to be raw? Isn't this a powerlifting/strongman section? It seems like it would make much more...
Most of the time it's going nowhere but then it just jumps out of nowhere. It was stuck around 465-475 for over a year and then in something like 8 months jumped to 600. It's been a year and it...
Yeah, it's definitely worth it. I think what you need to do is make friends with anyone who hits parallel with a decent weight. This all started for me when I saw a guy repping 4 plates and...
Actually, it is a bit different if there people are very knowledgeable in your specific sport. I used to post here a ton 2004-2006 but stopped once I started lifting with a bunch of powerlifters. A...
I think there are tons of benefits to lifting with a group of really strong people. For a few years I only had other people from the math department to lift with until I started lifting with some...
I've always found that just below or around the knees gives me TERRIBLE leverage. As in I'm probably lifting less than off the floor (whereas above the knee I lift way more and still a good amount...
You're probably right. I haven't been on these boards much in the past two years so I've sort of forgotten what the demographics are exactly. Among the overwhelming majority of powerlifters I've...
I've personally had better results losing fat by dragging sleds than other cardio. I think part of the difficulty sometimes is that this sort of stuff can interfere with the rest of your workouts. ...
Yeah, mine certainly isn't. Though I figured someone would only ask a question like this in the powerlifting forum knowing that's part of the sport (especially since some of us don't even know what...
I just started playing with these so I'm not sure what the end result will be. I've been doing HEAVY high rack pulls for reps (an inch or two above the knees, about 10 reps). Last time I did these...
I've always had good luck throwing a good bit of chain onto them. Seems to make the motion much more natural.

I used to actually do this before I started getting serious about competing as a powerlifter. The problem is if you're getting psyched up for a BW+155 pound weighted chinup that's less energy you...
You can also check out a rigging company. I got the 1/4" and 3/8" from Lowes but anything 1/2" and above I got from the other place. I had to clean grease off the chains though :-/
I don't know exactly what the rules are for when a chinup is completed, but if you're actually going up all the way the top will almost surely be your sticking point. I got good results by doing low...
First time was 300 (don't know if it was a max or not). A few months later I pulled 405. A few months after that 465. I was stuck at that for about 1.5-2years and then I pulled 525 out of nowhere....
