  • No Whitebelts
  • By Bodyweight deadlifts i mean the weight of the bar is equal to your bodyweight.
  • Choose a weight closest to your BW, if you weigh inbetween 5 lb increments round up. If you weigh for example 222.5 then you should do 225 and not 220.
  • Conventional, Sumo, Semi Sumo and Zercher styles will be allowed.
  • Once you pick a style you may not change it during the 5 mins
  • You must use a barbell, olympic or standard. If you use standard plates you may elevate the bar to equal that of an olympic plates (distance below gripping are of bar is 8 inches)

I like this challenge. I'll hold off performing it until the end of the month so I only have to DL 225.

One thing though:
Gear? I assume chalk is okay. What about straps/hooks? This is a conditioning challenge after all, not a grip strength competition.

good idea, yes chalk, belts and straps will be allowed. Hooks in my opinion kill puppies so no hooks.
