You know that you don't deadlift 850lbs. You know this. You think you're going to deflect the BS calls by mentioning them yourself, but it's not. You're full of it. You don't squat 800lbs and you don't pull 850lbs. In fact, I don't believe I've ever seen a trap bar that will take that many plates. Let's see, most trap bars weigh 50lbs, according to a quick google search. 905lbs minus the 50lbs for the bar leaves you with 855lbs, or 19 45lbs plates. Betting that you aren't going to tell me that you use an odd number of 45lbs plates, let's say that you use 9 45lbs plates, two 10lbs plates, and one 2.5lbs plate on either side. I just do see how that will fit on a standard trap bar. In fact, I have a picture of a fully loaded trap bar right here, with 9 45s on it and very little room left over.

Did you weld extensions onto your trap bar, or are you just lying? Just stop it, dude. You've been chased out of these forums more than once for claiming this ridiculous crap. If your claims are true, you're literally the strongest teenager in the world.

He may be lying about his lifts, I dont really care, but it is possible to get that much onto a hex bar. Especially if he doesn't have a standard hex bar. Mine for example is custom made and could probably hold up to 1000lbs counting the weight of the bar itself.

Well, we can't all be lucky enough to have custom hex bars, can we?
