180 KG Deadlift New 1 Rep Max, (blockpull)

i have improved form in terms of where my feet are, but i am still rounding a bit in my lower back. Still practicing!

[davidgarratt]

Good work my man, please go slower when returning the weight but at this point practice with your warmup sets. Time under tension baby.. yeah!

[ArjunSingh-xvld]

Well thats a 40 kgs increment on the deadlift in 1 month ..impressive😊

[soberpowerliftingprking.]

That went up fast and smooth I’m pretty sure you got a 190 kg deadlift in you. Very nice job

[johnsmith]

Very impressive lift keep doing what your doing, seems to be a lot of experts in your comment sections

[Templas]

Nice bro keep it up! I hit 165x5 recently so i pretty much have 180 in the bag. I aim for a 270kg deadlift a year from now

[QBSIXTD]

Nice job
What would be a challenge a could make a video on that you would join

[anyquestions]

That's awesome man! 💪
Would you mind if ask how many rest days do you take in a week?

[HerGunAynVideo]

It is pretty amazing. You are strong af.

[tommyk]

Good job buddy! May I ask what (if any) program your following? I whas at 180kg (78 ish Bodyweight) a while ago. And my deadlift shot up following jonnie canditos 6 week program.

Do blocks take the weight off a deadlift cause of range advantage?

[gerardgeuss]

For the people saying he needs to lower weight and work on form, you're behind. Look up the science to rounded back deadlifting, while it might not be as efficient and you might actually be weaker when pulling with a rounded back, unless your lower back has an extremely severe degree of bend then you have almost 0 risk to damaging your back. In other words, this amount of upper back rounding is absolutely fine and while it should be minimized, it's not going to snap him in half. Do your research before commenting

[wesleyfitness]

What was your weight before you started lol i feel like you close to quint beastwood with those blessed genetics

[averagegymenjoyer]

there is no tention your lat, improve that and your numbers go up

[flawtyjohn]

If you rotate your elbows towards your torso, so biceps facing forwards instead of to the sides, you'll be able to get a more upright chest/torso position which will also flatten your back out more and increase tension in your lats.
Also those shoes will kill you one day, no shoes or chucks are best imo.

Great lift anyway and sick improvement.

[happzy]

Narrower stance woud probably be better and as some people here pointed out, no shoes. Other than that solid rep and far from 1RM, I'd say you could pull 190.
Edit: You sure it's not 170 though? The last plate looks like 15kg not 20.

[peu]

That was impressive, once again! You just get better! I was about to mention your back was a bit rounded, but you said that yourself in the video description xD! Keep going Ben, you're too strong!

[azxgod]

Just a tip, dont point your toes straight that much move them a bit to the side it will help give you more leg drive

[lichmaster]

did not seem to strungle with no shaky legs so he can easy go up

[luxloxmario]

I'm hoping I can get to that level at a end of the year I'm at 100kg now, great work and keep it up

[adamgrgrg]

watch the form bro, your lowerback seemed pretty bent, other than that great job, strong guy!
