Jose Jara Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Hi, do you know what's the best lift in the exercise "bent over rows" (overhand grip) with apollon axle? and, what's in your opinion a world class lift in the same? I think that 150-160 kgs for reps is world class lift Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opnsysme Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I just got a 2.5 bar from Lance and I'm going to train with it tonight. Maybe I can do a few of these for a laughable comparison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Jara Posted October 7, 2005 Author Share Posted October 7, 2005 I know that it's not a world class... but i'm doing bent over rows with 100 kgs, 6 reps, very easy. My best with olympic bar is 155 kg, 5 reps. I hope to lift in the next weeks, 110-115 kg for reps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gottabend Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 I'm just an old-guy slacker that's not been back at it for long but my working weight is 210lbs with a 2" bar. Should be able to add weight rather aggressively as I get used to wider grip. Have only had mine a week. Tried deadlift yesterday (that's awkward) and got 300. I'm sure there are those among us who do much more but that's my two bits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opnsysme Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 so last night I did DLs with my thickbar, its 2.5 and I forget if thats the same as Apollons axle or not. I got up to 200 lbs for 3 then jumped to 250 and only clearded the floor. This was my 4th set I think, doing reps of 3. So as far as rows I will have to try again another night. Then I had to switch to mixed grip to finish my DL's and I think we finished out with 320 and I got 2. Let me know what yoru getting. And I weigh 220lbs with 7 3/4 hands I think.
