I was originally going to do doubles but decided to go for a triple anyway. I got the third to just above my knee before I lost it. My pull off the floor was already horribly rounded, though, so getting it would have been a small miracle. Ah well.

I'm going to be out of town for the latter half of next week, so I'm going to text my maxes on Tuesday then just do calisthenics for the rest of the week. This is also why I decided not to try a few more sets of deadlifts.
Also, this is kind of a fun link. My (very rough) measurements are a 32-34" torso and 29-31" arms. So at 5'8", that's something like a 47-50% torso and (cough) 42.5-45.5% arms, meaning longish torso and really long arms.

I got something around 81cm/184cm=44% arms and 88cm/184cm=48% torso. I can't imagine anyone with arms shorter than 38% of height. Head and hand size are included in the measurements, but I don't think they matter.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the author was oddly precise in his determination of "average" measurements. Still, it was a fun exercise. I wouldn't put too much stake in it, of course. The best way to approach this kind of thing, as with much of lifting, is to experiment and find out what works for you.
