gear helps the deadlift pretty minimally when you are conventional. Ive heard rumors of guys getting 50lbs.. but I don't believe them I can pull 600lbs any day i want, and 661lbs with a suit was no joke life in the contest.
I just thought I remembered a conversation about him pulling close to 5 a while back.
I got 100 out of mine :p
Doubt I can do that again though.

Comment:
-Well, I'm about 10kg from my best in the bench(best raw 125kg), this sucks bigtime
A few possibilities:
-I'm guessing my shitty diet of 2 meals a day with hardly any protein, doing it as cheap as I can, has finally caught up with me.
-Am about 2-2.5kgs lighter than i was when I did 125kg
-Had only eaten a pie that entire day
-Sore abs from wednesday
-training cycle may have been to ambitious, may have been fatigued from the past few weeks sessions
-fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck! This has sapped alot of my motivation for nationals now

edit: just checked its different
Yep it's different, I wasn't studying or receiving payments on feb 3, but it says I should get it anyway - guy at uni told me that aswell, his brother got it last week, so i should get it tomorrow I guess, with my regular payment. Most courses start in march anyway, so most people willbe in the same boat.

Comments:
-200kg was close! Almost got it past the point where you think "fuck yes I've got it". Would have definitely got this with a belt, but I'll just wait until next cycle and give it another crack fully raw, I should get it. Also 2-2.5kgs lighter than last time I maxed.
-Reps were pretty solid, had heaps left in the tank - 155kg is three 22.5kg plates, finally I had 3 plates on the bar for work sets lol!
