on many forums merely discussing your lifts adds 20% to them.

Strong off the floor, miss lifts at lockout?


No really mate, most miss just below the knee or a few inches off the floor...


I agree that using a Deadlift Bar certainly FEELS nicer to lift with, and possibly makes lift FEEL easier. But as to adding to a persons 1RM I doubt the difference in more than a couple of kgs.

Agreed. I've pulled just as much a stiff bar even though it feels way worse.

It makes me wonder why they bother using a different bar at all then? Far simpler to just have the one type?
