Shortgorilla Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 @Rooks, @Gainsdalf the Whey, @Rookiebeotch, @mattyboy7one8, @ El Exorcisto I'm calling you out! All of you! Here's my big two: DEADLIFT, OVERHEAD PRESS. STRICT, BITCHES. NONE OF THAT PUSH PRESS CRAP. The goal? Deadlift 500 pounds. OHP 250 pounds. Same workout. I don't care how long it takes. First one in the group to pull this off wins. If you don't want to participate, it's cool. I guess. If you want to suck. 1 Quote PVP Challenge (Deadlift and OHP): http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/69895-shorts-race-for-the-big-two-ongoing-challenge/ My Battle Log: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/44606-shortgorilla-is-fat/ Link to comment
Gainsdalf the Whey Posted August 12, 2015 Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 Very in. Where's everyone else's DL at? Maybe I should up my number there since I'm closing on 600. Maybe a Wilks type deally?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Massrandir, Barkûn, Swolórin, The Whey Pilgrim 500 / 330 / 625 Challenges: 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 31 32 34 35 36 39 41 42 45 46 47 48 49 Current Challenge "No citizen has a right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training.

Shortgorilla Posted August 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2015 That's not a bad idea. Someone more smarter than me would have to figure all that shiz out though.

Rookiebeotch Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 My most recent 1rms were 415 and 170 at around 202 and 182 bodyweight respectively. 500 seems doable. 250 seems ridiculous. I'll be testing both at the end of this 6wc. Achieving a BW OHP is one of my lifetime goals, so crossing the finish line on this pvp challenge would be amazing, unless I somehow get super fat. Wilks seems like a smart call, but boring. Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Gainsdalf the Whey Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 So what's everyone at now currently? I'm at 589 DL and around a 200 OHP @ 260 bodyweight. Bodyweight is probably dropping into the 230s depending on the results of my body comp test tomorrow. As long as I don't need anything below 15% bodyfat to do it, it's happening over the next year.

goodbye_farewell Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Well you didn't call me out specifically, but I'm here to watch / participate. I rarely do OHP though... My last DL 1RM was 385 lbs after 1RMing on squat and bench.My best estimate on a strict OHP would be ~150 lbs.BW = 240 lbs. 1 Quote Link to comment

Shortgorilla Posted August 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 That's why I was going for weight originally. You could shoot for 650 Deadlift maybe? I don't know what's realistic.Sent from my N9520 using Tapatalk Quote PVP Challenge (Deadlift and OHP): http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/69895-shorts-race-for-the-big-two-ongoing-challenge/ My Battle Log: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/44606-shortgorilla-is-fat/ Link to comment
Rooks Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Holy man... 250 OHP... 500 dead doesn't seem too far off... but man a 250 OHP would be insane. I'm in! Quote Link to comment
Rookiebeotch Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 A 550 or 600 DL would make a better match with the 250 OHP. Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Rookiebeotch Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Ok how about DL + OHP wilks score of 216.3. This will be equivalent to a 500 DL + 250 ohp @200 bw. Or a more realistic 530 + 220. Typical competition rules for form and equip; the ones we use in the virtual meets on NF. My SG's-Big-2 wilks total is 168.71 as of the SSSS. 1 Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment
Rookiebeotch Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Or maybe double the OHP weight for the wilks calc, so as not to make this a deadlifting competition. 2x250 + 500 @200 = 288.39 wilks. The same 'realistic' ratio that I used on the previous post would be 546+227. 1 Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Rookiebeotch Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 The more I think about it, a stronger scoring on OHP is needed. DL gains are always much easier to get pound for pound. Roughly 2.4 times easier. The 2x coefficient I offered earlier normalizes the two lifts partially. It's a simple calculation too.
