what they dont tell you is that those are rubber weights and 15lb bars

[rilizzo21]

@rasheedmendenhal Actually they are 15 KG bars, so about 33 lbs. And the weights range from 5KG to 10 KG each.

[rilizzo21]

We are not powerlifting-- the technique we use involves pulling the weight as high as we can and then dropping under the bar. There is more risk of injury in a sport such as football or basketball then in weightlifting.

[rilizzo21]

Ya, that's really good!

[ClayPoindexter]

@rasheedmendenhal You don't know shit, so don't knock these kids. They're form is textbook. I'd like to see you squat snatch an empty bar with out falling on your ass
