I'm planning on competing in the 21 deadlift salute this year again at the Arnold Classic. I compete raw but used a Metal jack Deadlifter last year, and will use it again this year. I definitely have a lot of work to do in order to get the most out of the suit. I have a lot of trouble getting into a good starting position with the straps even relatively tight. So, tonight that was my main focus.
Reverse average elitefts bands:
225x1
315x1
405x1
495x1
545x1
Suit on Straps Down
585x1
635x1
Straps up (loose)
675
725
765
I didn't really crank the straps but they all moved well. I still have a lot to work on and I'm looking forward to getting some help from Dave and Ted Toalston one weekend at the S5 compound
