Nice! keep pullin heavy. Have you tried incorporating deficit deadlifts into your program? They've been great for me, really improve bar speed when you go back to coventional.

deficit deadlifts

Now that's the best idea I heard in a long time bro, no but tomorrow is back day and going for 650 lbs rack pull bro... so maybe next week I can start doing some deficits next.. I had another person suggest it too... Well see how it goes brother!! Thank you!!

At only 5'5" and 185lbs, 2x Mr. Olympia Franco Columbu deadlifted 750 and benched 525!

When I'm dreaming.

I can't wait to prove myself to everyone here.. When I deadlift 700 lbs... by the end of next year...WATCH OUT EROIDS... THERE'S A CHAMPION ON THE HORIZON, AND IT'S ME.

thats exactly what i use for shrugs. except I lose my grip at 365 so I use the golds hooks on 4 plates and up

Ever tried "lateral raise shrugs" for traps? Grab some dumbbells, lean slightly forward, do a shrug, hold it, then do laterals. Holding in the shrugged position all the way through the set. Guarantee you'll be cryin with 20lb DB's. Massive trap pumps and crazy burn.

I shrug the top portion on the DL...

birdbear27's picture

Love that feeling. Dat Trap pump is among the most satisfying feelings.

It's really hard to hold anything above 500lbs without straps and chalk.. by time I made it this far, my hands we're bleeding and burning.. gotta push through the pain brother... btw thanks for the love dude

You get a very different look to the muscle when you incorporate powerlifting styles into your bodybuilding training, its well worth the effort. And injuries don't happen if you train smart. I do heavy squat dead bench rack pulls. Not one injury in 8 years. Just gotta leave your ego at home is all.

Jeez man. passes aromasin

Nah I missed the reference lol. Sorry bro. What movie. I know I'm gonna feel 100% down syndrome when you tell me the answer but lay it on me.

birdbear27's picture

Son of a bitch. Hahahaha. I can play that entire scene out in my head too. Full Downs syndrome.

Dude. Fr.

We're done with this shit bro.. everybody got off on the wrong foot and lets all start fresh... I accepted you FR now its water under the bridge..

It is not only my intention to by a IFBB pro but to be a powerlifting champion too. I believe in myself and I will do what I want too, to me this comment is completely negative, with a hint of jealousy. Look back into the 70's how much did they deadlift, bench press and squat.. a few hundred pounds more than me. And guess what? They were legends, you think they became legends listening to your kind of bullshit.. they didn't they laughed at it and kept going.. so guess what Apu, I'm going to accomplish what I've dreamed about, and the rest will fall by the waste side.

Champion Of The Mind's picture

Yeah dude to me, it sounded like some patronizing BS, I catch from jealous assholes around some of these gyms. I'm a really nice guy bro, but I don't take negative bs dude.. nobody is going to stop me, I will accomplish my dreams. You infacted sparked motivation in me to do 20 reps a set tomorrow instead of 12. I know a lot bro about bodybuilding, dieting and aas dude.. not being an asshole but, thanks anyways.. I got this under control dude.
