I pulled 400kg from my knees and thats 45kg up from my previous best so i hope a big pull is on the cards:)
Squat is also up did a very very easy 280kg box squat with the bendy bar with no wraps or straps up.
May not sound a lot to some of you but its great for me:mrgreen: :twisted:

400 from the knees will mean a fucking sweet DL. Cos you pull Conv right? So the weak/stalling point would be around knee height anyway...so if you can pull 400 from your weak point you'll be on for a mad full DL! :cool:

Awesome pull, was that without wrist straps?

If so, that is fantastic grip strength you have there.

You absolute bastard. Way to make me feel totally inferior!! I was totally chuffed with my 200kg PB and now you have to go and double it. I hate you.

What he's not telling us is that his arms are so long that they reach below his knees anyway so all he had to do was "bend the bar" a bit on the pins...

Only joking mate, great pulling really!!
