Crazy man...I'm fairly new to 811 and sick of the "skinny" comments. I'm your weight but not toned/strong at all. Wondering how long you trained for this and whether you full out hit the gym or just do deadlifting mostly? How many fruit cals you pumping in a day? Thanks :)
@zefside84 just this last summer and really I haven't been full force as I like. I was really slacking, but now I'm gaining more than what I expected on it. I'm going to hit 400 lb soon (pinch me)! This is relative a new lift compared to other lifts I been doing for YEARS, those are coming, lol! You will want to watch those. 2500-3000, but more or less depending on my activities. Go get your lift and fruit on man, you'll love it!
You've got some mad strength my friend! I want to convert to a raw vegan diet for health reasons and I'm trying to ease in slowly. I'm a power-lifter as well and I was worried about not being able to keep as well as gain strength and muscle on a raw plant-based diet. All I can say is you busted that myth! Keep up the heavy lifting!!
@TheLonelyLumberJack THANK YOU, it really means a lot to me coming from a fellow powerlifter. I haven't even put my bench/squats up, now those will definitely get some attention, lol. I know it sounds bananas (well, in the most literally sense), but you have just give it ago. Doing is believing, so do it 100% and then tell the world about it. They have to know! I just was doing reps of 315, 320, and 325 for my sets yesterday. I really think I can hit 400 lb this year.
@IronCladBen just the opposite. It helps you hold on to the weight without it slipping out of your hands. If the bar rolls out from one hand, you can catch it with the other. It's absolutely essential when deadlifting heavier weights from what I have seen.

@fruitandstrength :)
Question...are you actually tracking your cals? That seems a bit low for someone who's pumping that much weight or is that just a ballpark figure?

Why does the bar look crooked when he's lifting?

@hypnos315 maybe because I recorded it on an angle?

Hey I don't deadlift much, but what's up with the cross-hand grip? Can't that get you injured?
