What business does she having even doing that much weight if she can't even deadlift it in the first place?

[MTVdontplaymusic50]

was she running to the kitchen?

@goatkiller68 She can Hang clean 231lb. You talked about a clean. Totally different.

@SquatsOats what are you talking about?

@sklim2009 tl;dr

@kylesteinhauser she was doing the specific exercise of clean from the hang position. She got help with the deadlift to save energy for the specific lift she was attempting. It's not that she couldn't deadlift the weight, it's that she wanted to save energy for the specific lift she was maxing out on. Understand? Lot's of times lifters do this lift from blocks but as you see she didn't have those. She was not attempting a deadlift+clean from hang, just clean from hang. Understand?

@Dreadnaught89 i didnt ask why she shouldnt do it. all i said was even if her form is no good she can still lift that weight. thanks for answering me 1 year later.

[Dreadnaught89]

@goatkiller68 Because that can lead to nasty injury in the future. That's why.
