100kg Deadlift last night

MindPower · 05-24-2006, 07:16 PM

Im excited so, i needed to tell someone who cares
Im currently doing NROL -Hypertrophy 2 and last night i hit the 100kg (220lbs)
for a few sets in the deadlift
whilst not a huge number for some people it has been a goal of mine for a while & it felt damn good (& heavy)
i felt i could have gone a little higher maybe 110kg (240lbs) but my grip, not my legs was letting me down

thanks for reading

I know the feeling Mark. Great lift! It does feel great to share it with people who care. Now set a new goal for yourself and work on breaking that one.

Thanks everyone, hopefully i can achieve the same numbers with my squat and bench soon, then onto 150kg

Nice work!

Wow didn't realize people in the ACT could lift 100kg. Well now i know there is at least one.

karky · 05-25-2006, 05:40 AM

nice job! im also around a 100kg deadlift, last time i checked it was on 105

i also got a grip problem, but since im in MA i dont use straps, i want those forearms to bleed some:P

igunick · 05-25-2006, 06:43 AM

nice job! I remember when I hit 100kg, I was pretty excited too

Newlife · 05-25-2006, 07:45 AM

Blackjack · 05-25-2006, 08:21 AM

Aren't those round 100 numbers awesome to hit?!?!

Congrats, brutha!

pjhenry · 05-25-2006, 03:02 PM

Nice pull. I can't wait to get back to those numbers.

MindPower · 05-25-2006, 05:13 PM

Thanks again everyone, its nice to read so many responses to a guy who reads (lurks) more than he contributes here.

Hooray for you!

Doesn't that just make the whole day great? It makes you feel like you can handle ANYTHING that comes your way. I love that feeling!

You should be excited, that is a great lift

MindPower · 06-22-2006, 05:59 PM

Thanks everyone, i might start talking in pounds just cause it sounds more
impressive, 300lbs actually seems like an achievable goal now, plus it will sound really cool

Nice job Mark!
To make your grip stronger - HOLD WEIGHTHS - on deadlift, side deadlift, lat pulldown ect. Do NOT use straps. Staps will take your grip BACK while your body goes forward.

karky · 06-23-2006, 10:30 AM

definitly good advice there! Last time i pulled 105 RDL, my grip was about to give up on me completley, today i did it again, grip was no issue what so ever, and ive been training strap-less

yovwmon · 06-24-2006, 02:33 PM

Nice work Mark!

I went for 315 one time, probably could have gotten it but my grip didn't agree, I know the feeling.
