Great deadlifting. Hats off to the hook grip.

Nice job, man!
Excellent work on the 485. You might want to try sitting back some more in the lift, trying to get your shoulders more behind the bar. I know that in the first pull with O lifting you want your shoulders in front of the bar, but I think that you might get some more power in the deadlift if you get the shoulders behind it more.
You’ll get that 500 in no time.

Eh, I went to do 500 yesterday and got the plates 8 inches off the ground before I dropped it. Boo-hoo. I did add five pounds for a new PR of 460 though. I stopped training for the DL for the last month and went into a caloric defecit. I had a feeling I wasn’t ready but I know it’ll come soon. I’m gonna try to get my wife to video tape it.
Hi, my name is James and I deadlift 500lb. Can I be part of your club???
FIANLLY hit the big 5-oh-oh today. And hitch (not TOO badly) 235kg/520lb too 
475x1 today. Tried the hook grip with it and it didn’t work so I used switch. I did do a hook grip 405 though, I am beginning to get more comfortable with it.
