Just saw a guy at the local Y straddle a barbell with 370 on it. One leg on either side of the bar, now, and he squats down, right arm behind his right leg, left arm in front of his left leg, and pulls. He stands up with it with a ginormous grunt, and then drops it from the top. He does this twice more. Then he sets up to do a conventional DL. Standing in front of the bar, he does a dry run for three reps. He grabs the bar, tries for like two seconds to pull it, and gives up and walks off.
