so 300k, 320kg, 335kg, this sounds good! I’ll get a 4th attempt though since its breaking a world junior record in the gpc, so I think il do 300, 317.5, 325, 340.

Is that a Metal King Pro? I was debating between that and the Jack. Ended up with the latter just because I got it cheap. How do you like it? You use the metal suit slippers, or have a different strategy to get in the thing?

Great pull.

its ok, Im wish I got the jack though becuase its multiply, I just couldnt find anyone who could compare it to the king pro so I bought a king pro, I have one in a size 48 and one in a size 50, If i find a preowned jack in one of those sizes I’ll probably buy it

also the fact its pure orange and looks like some weird halloween costume put me off too haha

anyone here rate the metal jack deadlift suit? thought this thread might as good as any to ask

I still haven’t taken it for anything over 405, and don’t have anything to compare it to. It seems solid, and it’s not terribly uncomfortable, but I don’t think I’ve gotten it all the way jacked up yet.

what size did you get, and what height/weight are you if you ont mind me asking?

I had a metal king pro, size 50 (i am 5’9 200lbs), and was too loose so I bought the king pro again in a 48, was so close to getting a jack suit in size 48 but was afraid it’d be too small as I was told the sizing was odd on it, and if that was the case it would be useless to me so I took the safe option

We’re the same height and weight, haha. My jack is a size 50. Definitely takes more than 2 minutes to get on. Everything is super roomy on it itself for the leg holes. They’re comfy (at least compared to the old Z suit I own), but it takes a lot of wiggling, stretching, hanging and dancing to move it up after a certain point.

You look like you’re holding less fluff than me, so a 48 MAY have worked. I’m a gear virgin and training solo, so I could very well be fucking up on getting it on, but I think you picked the right option.

That might be the most epic training selfie vid I’ve seen. I mean Pic of jacked BANE and hulk on the back wall, METAL deadlift suit, Blood on the floor, blood running out of your face, pickin up heavy shit. That shit was an 11 bro. If it would have had two hotties jumping on trampolines like the old Man Show, would it have been lifted into the stratosphere.

Good job man, and good luck at your comp!

Oh yeah, is this a full power meet? Push / pull? Although that lift was epic, make sure you get on the board with an easy lift, then take something like that for 2 and go fucking nuts on the 3rd.

haha thanks man, yeah my friend Gordon spray painted them on a walls two weeks ago he did a great job!

Full meet man.yeah Im thinking 290kg, 315kg, 335kg, 340kg (750lbs) (I’ll get 4 lifts since its breaking a junior world record past 331kg/730lbs). I know Im adding a lot on to what I did this day but Ill be well rested and well carbed up and hyped, where as right now im drained and overtrained. also the 25kg plates are half a centimeter less in diameter that standard red Eleiko 450mm plates, so that should add on a bit :slight_smile:
