Damn, Khans new conditioner got him lifting Big boy weight!

If those are 25lb plates at a min, then thats 245lbs, unless you meant kilos.

 

Well I have olympic bumper plates but mine are black, no color scheme. So these more than likely are 20's or 25's.

Yeah I use a mixed grip as well, but his S&C coach probaly just has him using a pronated grip so he can get used to the movement.

The heaviest I pulled (or attempted to pull) was 315 for about 4 reps a couple years ago (weight of 180bs) and I didn't need chalk. Bu then again, I lift on the regular so I dont need it.

 

Deadlifting is great but I wonder how it helps with boxing specifically? Will you it give you extra power in uppercuts? Better overall balance?

Just hope it doesnt cause an injury.

 

Maybe Haye's S&C will really help. Now if Amir could find a trainer to teach him some inside fighting ability........

 

deadlifting strengthens your chin as well

 

Sadly, no..:yep

 

Deadlifts being a compound exercise, work the entire body, much like the other 2 compounds squats and when done properly, bench press. Though they are primarily used to thicken and widen the muscles of back, and strengthen the hamstrings they also have a marked effect on the sternocleidomastoid

Though I doubt that is there intention, strengthening of the shock absorbers could very well lead to an increased punch resistance.

 

boom

 

was from his twitter i think earlier this year
dont see why he would lie


david haye was benching 180kg back in 2008 at cruiser weight if i remember correct
so god knows what he was lifting when he put on the extra muscle moving up to heavy

 

You can pull more with chalk though... At least going for like one rep max. All those guys in deadlifting competitions use chalk (the straps are illegal in most that I know of).
If they aren't 45s I wouldn't be to shocked, but if they were... dude would be a beast.

 

I was there, he cleaned this.
