Thanks. I need to work on my grip. forgot my chalk, so i used straps and even with those i was losing grip. i could have done it 2x i think with the proper grip.

how was the bar knurls (i think thatwhat there called, the rough area?)? i try and find the one w/the most roughness on it..i tried pullin once, and didnt realize the bar was as smooth as a babies ass, needless to say i didnt get it up very far.

yea that is it. new gym, all new equipment. the bars are kinda slippery and the weights are those rubber coated weights. There wasn't much room left on the bar for more weight. i guess if someone lifts seven+ plates, they are sol at this gym. the bar won't hold anymore weight. anyway nothing a bunch of chalk won't fix. i love the way 6+ plates bends the bar.

What you talking about Willis?

no they are 45's. 6 on each side with 5's and 2.5's on each side made 600.

wish they did. but nope not a single one. i am used to using one for dips. i see now what you mean. would take up less space that way. i am slow but eventually i get it.

With sweaty hands bar can slip even using straps. Very dangerous because it may hang from your wrists... happened to me once.
