    Default Some vids of me and my wife

    • starting strength seminar april 2024

    Here is one of me squatting 480 in just belt and knee wraps:

    Here is 470 a couple weeks before it (better view):

    Here is a 507 deadlift, belt only:

    This is my wife deadlifting 347 (at ~132BW) in only a belt a while back:

    Here she is doing 358 (she has since done 360):

    And for fun, a 135lb one-arm power snatch (anyone else do these?):

    Any comments/critiques welcome. Keep in mind form is not always going to be perfect on max effort lifts!

    You should post more videos of your wife.

    Very strong & impressive from both of you.

    I was wondering if either of you actively/intentionally round back your deadlifts?

    In your deadlift especially, you setup with a very rounded back in the beginning. Is this on purpose? How do you find it?

    Not on purpose. My back is generally straight but it's hard not to round a little on a maximal pull.

    I left my comments on Youtube but suffice it to say, it appears sorcery was used to aid your wife's lifts. Besides that good work. You are a very strong couple.

    Good job. This video was related, but I thought it was funny.

    Ha! That guy is a dork. Pretty damn strong, though. That's probably the biggest one-arm snatch I've seen.
