We need to piss test Ladsy for PEDs. I saw it on the news lastnight; everyone and their sister is using drugs to give them an advantage.

You would be surprised, actually. A lot of people are weaker at the top (as displayed by the fact that he bailed).

I know I'm weaker at the top, as is Decoppel, who just pulled 675.


Lol weaker at the top? Why do you think people rack pull more than they deadlift? Being weaker at the top at our level is pretty strange.

By the way, what's considered top when you're such a manlet? Ladsy and I are cleaning at the height you lock haha :P

220 and can't even DL 5 plates? I don't want to live on this earth anymore. I'm hurling myself off my balcony now.


He has barely trained for strength, though, and is fresh off several injuries, mate.

Tends to be better positioning on the rack pull (depending where the pins are set), which is why people can rack pull more. Mid-shin rack pull tends to be a different story. Piss poor leverage and quite a few people pull a lot less there.

Not everybody can rack pull more than they deadlift, but that's based more-so off where the pins are set. :P Being weaker at the top is actually more common than you believe it to be. That's why people do deadlifts against bands and chains. They don't just do it to look tough, haha.

The top for me is considered to be 3cm off the floor. I'm so short that I only need to rip it 3cm off the floor, umad? ;)

No, I'm not, but knowing that your DL RoM is longer than my dick saddens me.

I have T-Rex arms. My leverages are awful for the DL.
