650 lb Trap Bar Deadlift @ 185 lb Body Weight

PR on the trap bar deadlift today! 3 days after my powerlifting meet last Saturday 6-6-09. Check out the vid all the way to the end. We duct taped two 10 lb kettlebells to get the bar weight to 650. There's some serious irony to the pattern the duct tape left when the bell unintentionally fell off.

Reminds me of a quote from an Old Book I read from time to time. Philippians 4:13 - "I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength."

well DA its easy to have good form with trap bar because the bar is not infront of u it requires less felixability, also how tall is he because i dont think he needed the extra handels

@muzimuzi True, the trap bar is an easier implement to deadlift, that's why my numbers are higher than my barbell lift. I'm 5'9" for reference and 185 at the time of the lift as the title states. The higher handles just decrease range of motion. I haven't tried from the low handles, but I'm sure there would be a difference. Thanks for the critique.

@LoneStarJason yea im a bit harsh but its only cuz people dont understand usually, and sometimes would critisize people who use regular bar with "bad form" , i actually do wish i had a trapbar to from time to time but id never ditch regular deadlifting
