405 is 4 plates. 45x9=450 (8 45lb plates and an olympic bar is 45lbs)

Got a new 1rm on my overhead press - 255 lbs. Tried to video it and put it on Instagram, but the camera angle is about as unflattering as it can get. Still gonna post the video even though I'm sure mocking will commence.

Hex is about 52 pounds, throws off all the calculations and confuses my friend when I tell him what I picked up and set back down.
E: So 4 plates on a Hex is 412.

Very strong, impressive.

And you are correct: that is the least flattering angle possible... all belly, double chin, armpit, and the hole in your shirt

You talking to me or him?

Him: it depends. It's the same weight, but on a hex (which is, imo, a bit easier). It's also not 4 physical plates, though I'm curious how he got 7 lbs less using plate math. Maybe just simplifying it by calling the hex 45 lbs? So, yes and no?

E: derp. Just remembered he said he wasn't at 4 plates yet. So, 3 plates, a 35, a 5, and ... a 1.5? Do 1.5s even exist?

Me: Nope. Personal max is 372 on a hex.

Yeah sorry guys, I meant coming up on the 4 plate official deadlift club. Hex is usually a good indicator on my upcoming DL progress.

E- had no idea the hex bar is 52 pounds either :wow:
I didn't realize that post would cause such controversy. I just count the hex bar as 45. I had 4 45's on each side and called it 405

I went back to ab wheel stuff 3 days ago and the first set everything went fine, then on the second set I could feel the muscles below my belly button had already been shredded like tissue paper (the bad kind of shredded) from 6 months of neglect. My core was still in shape from the big 4, but now when I sit-up or move I get a nice little surprise depending on which muscles are being used. I forgot how much abs get worked in chin-ups yesterday, too.

If he waits long enough he can use his accrued interest from his savings to bring his negative checking balance back into the black.

We have 3 options here:
*1st is this guy is potentially playing the long con. Waiting for someone to be like, uh bro you are hanging from the chest down in a perfect chin up only your arms move. When this happens he is gonna spring and be like you idiot I never specified how much theyre used obviously its 0, thus puppet mastering one of us. I would say 20%.
*2nd and more likey is this guy is kipping like a mad man on chinups but this one almost defines logic because if you kip from a neutral grip you are gonna be loving your wrists up because the forward momentum isnt stopped by a bar like on a pull up. I would say 75%.
*3rd and a late comer. This guy does not know what a chin up is and is confusing it for something else. I would put this at 5%.

If you chin and hold your torso at a stationary angle through the entire movement you will feel it in your abs. A lot? No. But if you ever work your abs and brace your abs you'll feel it more than you'd expect to.

I wear a backpack with weights on my chest for chinups and ill definitely fatigue my abs a bit. Not like with direct ab work, but something. the backpack positioning might cause me to try to counteract the weight by curling forward though

I only said something because it surprised me, too, but certain abdominal muscles are most certainly stimulated by a pull/chin-up that aren't by the big 4. I was expecting a couple more days of recovery before another ab exercise and didn't expect it to be a factor (never was before). Made me paranoid that they would be a factor in deadlifts, but they weren't, only in the accessories I haven't done in 6 months. :shrug:
