Powerlift88’s BodyBlog

Last night I spent my night focusing once again on the Rickshaw deadlifts for strongman. I must say it was a good night. On the bottom grips I got 315 for 8, 405 for 6, 495 for 4, 585 for 2, and 650 for 1. On the top grips, I got 705 for 2, 765 for 1, 820 for 1 that really flew nicely, and I attempted 865 and got it half way up, but once again, my grip decided to go against me and I dropped it. Ah well no big deal. What is a big deal is that I have officially maxed out the machine, even to the point where I am hanging 25 lb plates off the bottom handles just to add weight. Back in on Sunday for regular deadlifts just to figure out my opener for the competition.
