Its not a question of willlpower- its science!
For 2 weeks running i have managed to rep - 350 kilos deads but any extra and i can only get one lift. Its not a question of too much iron the bar - nor that i believe that its not possible to lift it - rather it is a question of science! I am unconvinced - alarmingly so - that human fingers are not designed for taking such extreme weights. Going to continue with the tennis ball squeezing to see if i can muscle just a little more out of the fingers. One thing is sure - i am not resorting to straps , gloves or hooks! Others can - no problem - but i want to do this "au Natural "

I haven’t lifted nearly enough weight yet for it to affect my fingers, but I can feel it in my elbows, like the weight is trying to seperate them

Your so right my friend. When it comes to lifting that kind of weight the fingers are definitely the weak link. Good luck in your quest my friend.
