705 x 5. Is this starting strength?

No you gotta use strength co plates for it to be Starting Strength

I hear they’re smooth and easy to grip! Durable even

Designed to look great in your gym!

Yep, getting there. Just starting to get strong. Like halfway there lol.

One of these days I’ll be strong

You gotta add 5 lbs tomorrow

Good idea

No straps! 💀😳

Pretty sure your Viking ancestors are celebrating in Valhalla!

Add fahve 🤝🫡

Bro is finishing strength

Yes this is a great start

Not sure what’s more impressive, the weight or no straps 😳😳🔥

Dude, have you done this before? If not test your overall strength at the next powerlifting competition in your area. You’ll get noticed!

Haha yes I’ve competed before

🤣I thought you were an u known phenom! What’s your max?

I pulled 804 in a meet 2 months ago

Yeah but still

Your poor garage floor.

Clearly cheating being a tiny short man. Only have to pull the bar like 4 inches.

Yes clearly

Now that is some solid pull power! 💯💪🏻

That's about 150 lbs heavier than I will ever go.

Why?

20 years in the Navy, lifting, rugby, getting beat up on small boats and I didn't take care of my knees. I work out like a geriatric now..

Mfer stronger than 99% of the men on earth asking this 😂

Advice for men with a giant hog? I can't skin the snake every rep.

No, SS does not endorse touch-and-go deadlifts. Incredible job though.

It was a joke about it being a set of 5 brother

I know, I was joking in response.

😂😂😂

GG big dog.

Thats some finishing strength

Novice? Sure, if you can recover soon enough.

Needs more milk

Sounds like a good time
