Member 4115, 1247 posts SQ 195, BP 140, DL 220555.0 kgs @ 82.5kgs UnEq | Great video... Would have been more interesting if they had picked similar weight guys. e.g 90kg class people ish from each thing. Also, That weightlifter was awesome. Lovely form every rep. Anyone up for trying this? How many do you reckon you could get in the five minutes? what technique would you go for? | ||

Member 3366, 247 posts SQ 200, BP 150, DL 230580.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | We have done a couple of things like this. One was reps x weight in 4 mins I did 67 @ 70kg.. Rich Scott did 70 @ 100kg Loz did 50 @ 140kg It kills!! Had to do 100 reps at bodyweight a couple of weeks ago and it took about 9 minutes. Its a weird one as you dont know how fast to set off. | ||

My asshole is not watertight. Member 2926, 6050 posts SQ 217.5, BP 107.5, DL 225550.0 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | Motorbiker said: Anyone up for trying this? How many do you reckon you could get in the five minutes? what technique would you go for? I once did 46 reps with bodyweight in 3mins but wasn't able to rack the weight during that period. It gave me the worst DOMS I've ever had in 18-years of training. Based on the longer time and being able to rack the weight I reckon I'd push 70 reps at 90kg bodyweight | ||

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq | slimsim said: Based on the longer time and being able to rack the weight I reckon I'd push 70 reps at 90kg bodyweight I was actually disappointed when I realised they were allowed to rack the weight. Keeping the bar on the shoulders for 5 mins would take that challenge to another level. | ||

His levers get the bar up. Member 2919, 8635 posts SQ 195, BP 127.5, DL 225547.5 kgs @ 77kgs UnEq | Benfrancis1993 said:the wl's squats look effortless. They are only 70kg though? I bet his max squat is between 180-200. That's going off the size of his quads at 69kg BW. | ||

Member. Member 2171, 1612 posts | As a percentage of max the weightlifter was always going to win. It was an easy weight in a motion that he trains multiple times a week. The powerlifter surprised me, thought he was doing poor at start just kept going though and got the draw | ||

hermit Member 3904, 988 posts | Everyone can get their squat looking like that, trust me! Squatting is not most unatural movement for me, wrong leverages, bad joints, bad flexibility, weak! but after about 5 years my squats look like that. | ||

normal people, like me. Member 2325, 550 posts | Really good video, enjoyed that. Incredibly envious of the weightlifter's squat, my front squats look a bit like that, but I've never been able to get my back squat that nice. Tactics are a big part of that, the powerlifter was racking more often than some others early on. Used to train for most bodyweight reps in one set, no re-racking. Most I got was 42 at 80kg. Which was disappointing as the goal was 50, and my hips won't let me do that sort of thing any more. | ||
