Has anyone read Ano's log over on EFS? They're doing chain-suspended Goodmornings with a "kill bar" (pretty much a Spider Bar), while doing rack pulls. Madness.

Thats pretty similar to the mechanical ox, or a free weight version of it anyway.

That sounds just about as close as you could get to hell on earth

I agree.

I did deadlifts off the floor with the SSB on my back.

A also did rack pulls against bands with the SSB on my back.


They both were teh suck!

That looks like it hurts a lot..

but with those chains set where they are...its not much of a GM is it? I dont know a hell of a lot about GM's(having performed them only a couple times) but we went much lower than those chains would allow..

I think it's so that the GM deloads at the same time as the rack pull, but who knows.
