Went to a gym yesterday and they had some straps hanging on their accessory station.

Did some deadlifts as i've been doing for the last few months, raw, double overhand. Powered out 295 x 5. Almost at my three plates, the grip is still playing catchup.

"Why don't I give the straps a go?" I think to myself, I've never tried them before, why not? 315x7 like nothing. I'm feeling pretty confident, even after 5 hours of sleep the night before. 405 is on the bar. I tighten the fuck out of the straps. 3... 2.... 1... pull. The bars bends like i've never seen before. The weight doesn't move. Shit

I'll be back... Don't you worry. I'm buying straps for next week. Hah
