[AHol]

That wouldn't pass in any meet!

That wouldn't pass in any meet!

this

strong though. how long you been lifting?

[Truebmxer01]

why is that?

You used your thighs as support to help pull up the weight.. it would definitely be red lighted in any meet.. you can slide it up your thighs but you cant use ur thighs to help lift the weight..

[Truebmxer01]

still much stronger than me.. mirin.. just drop the weight a bit and make sure you aren't using your thighs.. Nice work mane

Ones that I use to directly benefit my deadlift have been:

Powershrugs (dont use straps, chalk only)
Squats below parallel
Powercleans
Box squats

Pick what you like, dude. I personally love all of em.

Your hitch is powerful as fuark lol. Too bad it means your glutes and hip drive is prob crappy. Try doing some sumos to warm up, don't hitch just think of chest coming up and hips driving up into the bar rather than thighs. Sumos will put you right into hip drive mode and you will feel DOMS in your glutes, hammies, and quads better.

Big hitch, but impressive non the less man. I just hit 500 myself last week

You have a lot more in you.

with a bit more technique work you could probably pull 550 legit.

thanks man!.. i definitely feel like i have more in me as well!.. can't wait to deadlift again!

It's not a hitch, a hitch is where the weight stops and you rest it on your legs and use your legs to wiggle it up.

What OP did is referred to as ramping.

I am not aware of powerlifting standards but nice job. That looked fairly easy to me.

Not great, very evident hitch.
However, it looked easy and i'm pretty sure if you worked on your form a bit you could get 500 with good form.
