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

Deadlifts are GREAT. Builds overall power. It also can increase hormone levels.

I'm not sure how much those blue-plates are but you would be surprised how much people can dead-lift....especially those that are genetically gifted for it. Harder without straps though.

 

You seem to be very clued up with hormones and testing etc, what's your background mate?

 

Ah. Ah. Ah.

 

Conte, is that you . . .

 

Try and find it mate. Would like a listen to that.

 

Unless they make them different in the UK, they are 30-32lbs. I have one sitting on my bench at home right now. :good

 

Did a lot of dead lifting in highschool about 11yrs ago. Def strengths the lower back.

 

LOL

 

:rofl

 

what i was thinking too.

lol the kiddie bars, or the ones the girls used were 30 pounds, i believe how it's always been in the weightrooms i been in.

 

Deadlift is great. I run track so I use the straight leg variant to target hamstrings. I feel more power in my sprints because of it. There's nothing wrong with boxers strength training with heavy weight as long as the strength is converted to power and you can avoid muscle gain.

 

We were talking about the bar.

 

7 foot Olympic bars are 30 lbs. There are 45 lbs ones, but those are mostly for power lifting much larger weight. ****, there are some 75 lbs. ones but the extra weight is mostly to support greater weight.
