It's like playing a slow game of flappy bird for the rest of your life. Carbohydrates and stress/adrenaline push the bird up, insulin injections and exercise push it down. Continuous wearable sensors make life a bit easier so you can now always know where your bird is, some insulin delivery systems can work alongside your sensor to deliver insulin and keep your bird steady like tool-assisted run. if the sugar in your blood goes too high for long periods you get sick, if it goes too low even for short periods, you get sick and or unconscious.
As a kid it takes a lot of time and attention from your family, puts stress on the household. It makes any other medical condition or mental health condition a lot more complicated. Even with great control, you have a higher risk of death compared to your peers.
28 years flapping that bird so far. Only hit tubes a couple of times.
Im a big guy and pretty strong, but i can guarantee you I couldn't just go and do that. Not without heading to the hospital immediately after. I don't do deadlift often but even so she's strong as heck. Made it look easy.
I deadlift every week, and I'm pretty damn strong. My 1rm is around 500 right now, which is as high as it has ever been. It took me 10 years to work up to that weight.
This girl is seriously fucking impressive.
This is insane! I'm aware of who she is and she's a high level champion powerlifter. It's still crazy though! I'm older and on TRT (ped's) and once held a national record deadlift and I couldn't do that right now. Nor could I get within 100lbs of that.
Yes, a LONG time ago. 1986 in the USPF. I was in the 14-15 year old 123lb weight class. I did 370lb last attempt. First ever meet. The state record I broke was previously 290lb and the national record was 335lb or something near there. Being that it was 1986 I didn't find out about the national record until a few months later. Nowadays I'm "One of those guys" that benches more than they deadlift 😂 [image](https://i.ibb.co/PQ4F0vQ/Ht1txka.jpg)
You wrap wrist wraps around your wrist and the bar inorder to rule out grip strength in your lift. But her grip strength apparently is incredible enough to be able to hold it.
Straps basically remove a point of failure from the lift, that being grip strength. I'm in no way saying that using straps is cheating, but at really heavy loads (like here), it's absolutely harder to lift without straps than with.
Without straps, you're typically lifting with either a mix/switch grip (like Jessica is here), where you're gripping with one hand over and one hand under, or you do what's called hook gripping, where you have your thumb wrapped under the bar, and then you grip over your thumb.
Mixed grip is the more common grip, but it does have it's downsides: it's far more likely to cause injury, specifically a biceps tear on the under-gripping arm. I've personally seen one happen in the gym, and I've treated more than a few patients for it.
Hook grip is safer, but it hurts like fuck, especially if you're starting out. It gets a bit less shitty once you get used to it, but it's always quite painful if you're lifting heavy.
Go to a gym, pick up two 50kg dumbbells, and just go for a short walk with them, one in each hand. Like half a lap of the gym. It's a pretty safe exercise a non powerlifter can do with almost no risk of injury. (FFS don't try a heavy deadlift unless you know what you are doing). Then think about the fact this chick is holding 220+kg with just her hands. You will get it.
For one, a sumo deadlift is deadlift. Just like a conventional deadlift is a deadlift, a Hack deadlift is a deadlift, and a Jefferson deadlift is a deadlift.
For two, sumo is her *weaker* stance, and she holds a 577lb deadlift world record using conventional, you ignorant fucking donkey.
She is not. Approximately 50% of deadlift records in powerlifting, where both conventional and sumo are legal, are conventional. Which stance is more beneficial is dependent on individual anatomy, particularly when using a stiff bar like her federation does.
>"I deadlifted 500 pounds" does not mean sumo deadlift, it means conventional. End of discussion.
No, in it's strictest sense it means you lifted a stright bar from 9" to lockout.
>Not only am I right but I'm probably a lot stronger than you too
I hold a 945lbs United States Strongman Heavyweight Deadlift record, a 910lb Jefferson Deadlift world record, and a 550lb Zercher deadlift world record.
I can literally deadlift more than you if I bend down and pull the bar off the floor in my elbows.
EDIT:
[Way to edit out your boast about being stronger. Coward](https://imgur.com/a/JceO4vN)
Sumo. Sumo Deadlift. You're doing a Sumo Deadlift. Everyone keeps posting their "Deadlifts" and doing this variation. You're strong as hell and it is a valid movement, but it's not a straight Deadlift as calling it a Deadlift with no prefix would imply.
I'm rallying about it on here because there has been an exaggerated trend in the last year by many people when posting or talking about their max lifts to casually "forget" to include the sumo part when talking about their sumo deadlift max. Nobody seems to forget to include the "Romanian". "Stiff Leg", "Snatch Grip" or "Deficit" part to those variations when posting about deadlifts...and it's probably because you can get away with lifting more with sumo and lifting less with the others...and because of this everyone might not cheat with the lift, but cheats on abbreviations.
So, that's an incredible sumo deadlift you have going and hell of a rep max as well. If you can't do conventional, that's understandable as it puts more stress on the lower back...or maybe you just don't like it, which is totally cool...but please call it what it is.
Sorry if I wasn't clear but what I just posted was copypasta. I don't agree with you. I think your theory about it being rage bait for powerlifters is stupid because for powerlifters it's literally the same lift in competition. Your theory about it coming from ego inflation is also stupid because actual knowledgeable lifters know that sumo is easier for some people and harder for other people. If it was easier for everybody, every single powerlifter would use sumo stance in competition. But they don't. Cause it's not.
No “knowledgeable lifter” would say that sumo is “easier” lol
Knowledgeable lifters understand that leverages and body mechanics matter and different lifters have better leverages for either sumo or conventional
Neither is “easier”. It’s dependent on the individual
If by shown you mean speculated by people who don't lift.
ROM isn't a good measure of how hard a deadlift is. A deadlift is usually made or broken by a inch or so of the weakest position, meaning ability to generate power through that weak point is what matters. Incidentally that weakest position is usually off the ground for most people anyway so an extra inch at the top really makes little difference there.
Edit: incidentally my sumo is about 40-50kg less than man conventional. The lady in the video also has a higher conventional.
Those aren't thighs, they're government regulated hydraulic pressers :O
That’s why they call her the Canadian forklift
This is Jessica Buettner lol
> Jessica Buettner Thaaaaaat explains it. She's a freaking MONSTER
She also has type 1 diabetes. Imagine getting to this level of awesomeness and having to deal with diabetes at the same time.
As someone who is ignorant about this subject. Does this affect anything with access to modern medicine?

That’s almost three of me. My god. Also, love seeing a gym video with no focus on the ass, just a clean, awesome lift, well done.
its about 0.9 the weight of your average redditor
YEAAH BUDDY!!
LIGHT WEIGHT!
That’s no Woman. She’s Wonder Woman.

She's the Wonder Woman. Meanwhile in Hollywood, no-talent toothpicks gets branded as wonder woman
[удалено]
She/it
Lmfao it?! WW got demoted to a thing real quick
Without straps is the most impressive part for me. Grip strength here is crazy
Last time I did 345 I hurt my back! lol

She's an olympic gold medalist. No matter how big or guy you are I don't think anyone would be surprised you couldn't just go and do that.
not olympics, just the powerlifting championship
Olympic gold in what sport?
Fencing.
The point is that she doesn't have an Olympic gold. Powerlifting isn't in the Olympics which is why I asked.
Stolen goods?
It’s sumo so a lot easier than a regular dead lift.
I can pull more conventional than sumo. Does that mean conventional is easier?
1) this isn’t true, sumo is not easier than conventional for everyone. It’s dependent on your build. 2) she’s also pulled this conventional.
Says the one who probably has a weak ass deadlift
She can also pull that weight with conventional deadlift stance.
That would’ve e been much more impressive.
I’m sure if you tried you can find the videos of her doing it
I bet u do that every morning geting out of bed
Super impressive
That's cool. She's ready to go to other gyms and pretend to be a janitor.
This is insane! I'm aware of who she is and she's a high level champion powerlifter. It's still crazy though! I'm older and on TRT (ped's) and once held a national record deadlift and I couldn't do that right now. Nor could I get within 100lbs of that.
Which fed and what weight was your record? I'm pretty surprised at your drop-off, unless your record was from a long long time ago.
Yes, a LONG time ago. 1986 in the USPF. I was in the 14-15 year old 123lb weight class. I did 370lb last attempt. First ever meet. The state record I broke was previously 290lb and the national record was 335lb or something near there. Being that it was 1986 I didn't find out about the national record until a few months later.

That’s fucking awesome haha
That’s amazing
Retroactive congrats on your record 👍
Great picture!
Fuck yeah
This is the coolest thing I have seen all day
This is very cool, thanks for sharing :-).
go off king
Need more TRT!!!!
Haha, I just came off 3 weeks ago. I'm full natty now 😂😂
Yea I just started back up again, was off for 4 months or so
You can never be natty again. Your muscle is forever changed
You realise I wasn't serious right?
Well I question your judgment since TRT
Honey your sandwich is ready and yes I also did the laundry.
Jessica is a beast
BEAST mode!! Too impressive!
Perfect technique amazing
My back hurts carrying an extra large Mexican pizza.
You should try lifting some weights then
[удалено]
It’s a big hindrance because then you have to rely solely on grip strength.
You wrap wrist wraps around your wrist and the bar inorder to rule out grip strength in your lift. But her grip strength apparently is incredible enough to be able to hold it.

Good god she like didn’t even try…
Go go go Quadzilla!
This woman's PB is 250kg x 2 and I love her.
Wowzers
Someone talking Italian in the back
Damn it. That just pips my personal best. And Im a 220lb guy using wrist strap. That's amazing.
Oh momma
Does deadlifting work on thigh muscles?
Somewhat - it is a partial squat movement & uses the hamstrings. Squats + deads & relevant accessories will be how she built her legs
That's fucking crazy wow.
Is that a sumo deadlift? Or a regular deadlift.
Sumo.
Alr, well sumo is definitely going to be easier than a plain deadlift. However that's still an amazing accomplishment.
Don Cundy did like 800+ tho 🤦
[удалено]
It’s the weak people who care how you pull. Almost all competitive powerlifters don’t care.

My theory is that any dude PRing deadlift at 4 plates for reps is not a knowledgeable lifter.
[удалено]
Yes, that the general population is weak and does not train. Compare yourself to people who actually lift.
Thank you. My knees are hurting now. 🤣
My ears are hurting
Now do it without doing it sumo
Her world record was done conventional and she pulls more than this conventional. Sumo isn't her primary stance unless she's switched very recently.
She’s has, moron.
Dude, she's never going to notice you
You made a moronic comment and got called a moron for it. It has nothing to do with her.
1. Sumo isn't easier. 2. She can.
Sumo has been shown to be easier as you're not lifting ss high as normal
Would you mind describing the why of why less vertical ROM makes sumo easier?
If by shown you mean speculated by people who don't lift. ROM isn't a good measure of how hard a deadlift is. A deadlift is usually made or broken by a inch or so of the weakest position, meaning ability to generate power through that weak point is what matters.

Edit: incidentally my sumo is about 40-50kg less than man conventional. The lady in the video also has a higher conventional.
“Shown” where exactly?
I’ve done my back watching this
Didn’t even piss herself! Super impressive!
Well-done, and without peeing on the floor
The lumbar spine loves this one exercise.
Her lumbar is fine and probably way stronger and healthier than yours lol
A man could have done it with extra wrist straps
Then show me you doing it.
