6 plates on the bar

[cheesecake]

I'm planning on pulling at least that much within two years. I'll be squatting something close to that too.

One day, I plan on benching it.

cheesecake, I don't think I'll ever be doing six plates a side on any chest movement, except maybe the hammerstrength decline, and probably in the next year. I've trained with two guys (one is my cousin) who bench that much for reps, and both were bigger than I plan on being.

Anyway, good luck on pulling that soon. The weight is all in your head. You just have to know that you can do it.

I hit 6plates on barbell curls every week bor... in the power cage.

6 plates a side for reps? that's... sick. How big is he??

I've done it in the hammer dead, tb dead (and could do it in the hs wide if you could fit that many plates on the machine) but for barbell lifts no fuckin' way. Not now, not ever. Major kudos to anyone who's in that club!

The guys at my gym who 1/8th squat on the smith machine are slowly working their way up to 6 plates total.

Seriously, how many of us here will EVER see six plates on the bar for ANY exercise besides leg press and maybe shrugs? (not you b-fold )

I've been at it since 1987 and I am just on the verge of 6 plates for both squat and deads. A LONG journey...

I've gotten 585 for rack deads from the knees. Does that count?
