17 Year Old Shotputter/Rugby Player

Check out all of Dan John’s articles. He is an accomplished thrower (discus?) and coach. His emphasis is own the olympic lifts and related training.

i dont think match sticks can deadlift 400, but good start, looks like your getting somewhere.

and i dont know what the hell it is about this forum lately where people post pics and stats that obviously dont match

thanks for all the advice about shot put i really appreciate it. and i understand some of this crap can probably get pretty annoying. and about the 400 pound deadlift i really dont see how improbable it is, ive just been a pretty good deadlifter and after i learned some good form and started using a mixed grip i got up to 400. a deadlift of just over 2 times your bodyweight really doesnt seem like it should be so implausible. ill try to get a video of me deadlifting during one of my workouts so we can just put this crap behind us.

is it one a day we are now being treated too?

I’m just wondering why you posted this in rate my physique not the Beginners section.

People don’t seem to get that you are supposed to be a bodybuilder of sorts for this area. I mean I figure I would get a low score on here so I keep my ass out until I put on some more size.

shizen, that avatar is an instant classic!!!
