 9x WSM finalist! Member 662, 3372 posts | martinb said: I was close!  Was I thinking of your lifts at your first bsm or did I make them up? You made them up. My first bsm was 2006 and was deadlifting 380 by then. I deadlifted 260 first time I ever deadlifted so 20kg would have been a poor improvement. When I did the southern qual for uk's I pulled 310 and that was 6 weeks after starting training | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | I don't think it's about ped's at all, loads of people take all sorts, have for 100 years. Genetics of course yes, while terry pulled 260kg first time, i could do 60kg haha That isn't an excuse to not improve and get better though (infact my deadlift has gone up a good bit more than his). Personally i think smart consistent training and keeping the injuries at bay is the most important thing for a strongman. | ||

 Member 4618, 93 posts SQ 205, BP 147.5, DL 265617.5 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | I've been lifting a number of years and I am pretty sure I'll make 260 this year. To do that at a first ever attempt is just mind boggling. | ||

banned. Member 4768, 413 posts SQ 310, BP 232.5, DL 310852.5 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq | I did 230 first time when I started at 110 kilos bodyweight . But I never learned to use my legs so my dead stayed pretty weak for all these years . Never liked it , rarely do it these days . But respect big deadlifters a lot. | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5207 posts | Thing said: 240 for me, but i f**ked things up and can just pull that again Thats f....g huge pull as well though. I would thought someone pulling over 150 first time would be doing well! Suppose guys on here,arent your normal gym trainers | ||

Mask it or Casket !! Member 4600, 8166 posts SQ 240, BP 162.5, DL 255657.5 kgs @ 90.5kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 11.09.2013 @ 11:22 AM by dannyboy73 Same. I pulled 240 1 month into powerlifting from just training at the gym for vanity for 15 years. It took a month before I could grip the bar with 240 on it!It all went south after that! Injury after injury.Hell you can bench though. 210 wow! I can only do it close/med grip nowadays. Thing said: 240 for me, but i f**ked things up and can just pull that again | ||

 more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 3351015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq | I failed 140 first time I tried deadlifting! I've always hated the movement. I got up to 315kg at one point (about 2 years ago) but have since had problems with my hips so not progressed since. | ||
