  • God can certainly make you humble when it comes to weightlifting! Had a good laugh and a PR! Culmination of a rack pull workout, as always, Jesus Christ gets all the glory, all my strength comes from God.

    There is a certain threshold at which “lifting” becomes “hoisting.” I don’t know the specific threshold amount and it probably has something to do with the Schwartz/Malone equation, but I guarantee what you are doing is “hoisting.”

      Interesting, being a newbie to lifting I've never heard of this formula, thank you, I can tell you that this weight is 1.41x my bodyweight.

    awesome pull! How did you fall down in the beginning of the video? 635 lbs a lot of weight. Is this a deadlift?

    • @Flab2Flex

      This is a very low rack pull, the bar was in a divet at the end of the spotter arms and I pulled a little too fast 🤣

    Your gym allows heavy rack pulls
    It does void the warrenty on most bars and it does tend to bend bars

      Check the conditions of warrenty
      Ive been looking at the rogue ohio bar and they say something like, if a loaded bar is resting on the inside of the sleeves this voids the warrenty
      That basicly discribes a rack pull
      Dont know about eleiko bars, but they are good bars youre probably fine

    Very nice pull. I know its tough to do in the rack, but get yourself closer to the bar. Your inital pull burned up alot of power because it was so far away which adds many pounds to the pull right at the toughest part. You probably know all this, just my observation.

    Great lift! Nice job!
    It's amazing how easily the Lord can lift us after we fall. Even when we are bearing such a heavy load. In this case literally.
    Matthew 11:28-30 says, "Come to me, all you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.
    God Bless,

    good job on the lift, that was very impressive...
    it's just, was the mentioning of god really necessary? I won't bother you, I just hope you understand how influential you can be to others, especially younger minds with these messages... seeing a strong guy lift an impressive weight and give credits to some deity, that could draw in people... but that might have been your goal, then I'd like to remind you about one famous saying: "thou shalt not take the name of the lord in vain!" and this is clearly out of vanity

    • @Flab2Flex
      @Flab2Flex  Před 3 měsíci +2

      I hear what your saying, however, I give all credit to God, God gives me everything in my life, my strength, my mind, my tenacity, my desire to try and live as best I can, my desire to honor my wife and live a good life in fulfillment of whatever purpose he has for me. My faith, it all comes from him.
      The scripture your referencing is Exodus 20:7, the word vain there is Sawa in ancient Hebrew, which means emptiness or worthlessness in conduct.
      God knows that I meant what I said, he sees my heart brother, he knows my intent.
