    I'll believe that one when I see the video. On her AMG page where this claim is made is a photo of her  with a "mere" 225 lbs on the t-bar row which belies this fantasy. The look of strain on her face does not make her appear to be working up to substatially heavier sets. My apologies if I am wrong. If she can do it that is unreal, mind blowing wonder woman level strength.

    same here. She is a good deadlifter but not that good. Only Becca Swanson might be able to do that kind of set.

    Impressive lift, indeed. But four big wheels on each side + olympic bar = 405 lbs. But a far cry from 585 which is six plates on each side.

    As I figured. I assumed she might be able to do it with the assistance if a power rack or even a smith machine. Not the same as a true dead.  She's completing the last six inches of the lift. It's a nice trick for upping your max but not an honest-to-goodness deadlift which starts with the weight on the floor.

    I don't get what's the purpose of that kind of a lift. Some might have problems with last phase of the pull and they need to do "High-deadlift" but this movement is so short and weight so much higher than in a standard deadlift that I don't think that's the case now.

    Grip and and upper back?
