wew lad
/r/fitness fag
>>36776665
nope, guess again faggot
pretty sure bars like that are rated for 250kg and he's got 270 loaded on it? no wonder it broke, especially since it was probably fatigued anyway
>>36776678
prob a setup with a cut in the bar
>>36776648
what the fugg is happening in this picture senpai?
>>36776694
he is some kind of sect leader
>>36776689
look at how the spotter reacts
no fucking way that is set up
I fucking hate posers. Not even 1/4 rom. What's the fucking point? Oh right ego massage and youtube hits
>>36776712
did he know?
>>36776712
nobody will ever spot me like that.
>>36776637
imagine this happening while deadlifting. the bar would slice up your chest
>>36776694
Thats a story from polish junior high school. The guy on a chair is a priest and a school director.
Licking a whipped cream from his knee was a part of "hazing" for a new commers.

I don't think so, the force at the breakpoint doesn't seem to be strong enough to actually send the bars flying upwards and impale you or slice your chest.
Remember that, with deadlift, you would only be endangered for the first 1/3rd (?) of the exercise. The moment you get the bar to your knees you are completely safe and even on from the starting point to your knees you are way too close to the ground for the bars to move much up, chances are they would just fall down immediately. The reason why they fly so up in the video is that the weights force fast descend on their end and so the other ends go vertical, rather then shooting up menacingly with amazing force.
I'd be more afraid when rowing than deadlifting.
Or fuck me
OVER
HEAD
PRESS
the moment it snaps the weights will smash your head in
Jesus
fuck
>>36776717
Clearly not, he grabs the guy and holds him like he's about to fall off a cliff or something, he puts his whole body into it in a split second, no way that is acted.
>>36776827
>Overhead pressing 270 kilos
>>36776863
DYEL>?
>>36776863
>not The Press 270 kilos
>>36776827
>the weights will smash your head in
the weights fell almost straight downwards, it wouldn't hurt you in ohp.
>>36776878
It would hurt you in OHP.
You wouldn't have such a weight loaded, and as it is higher, the momentum of rotation would be higher as well while falling, most likely hurting you in the fall.
Maybe not smashing your head in, but it would definitely crush you someplace.
>>36776910
no
do the math
>>36776910
there's no force keeping the ends of the bar where they are so the plates won't swing, they'll fall almost straight down.
I feel like this is bound to happen in my gym at some point
almost everyone who squats at my gym will throw the Olympic bar on the floor and grab one of the cheap 10kg bars
>>36776715
You hate them bcuz u aint them
>eighth squatting with a dyel spotter
>>36776863
do you even lift, bro?
>>36776863
>2016
>Not overheading 270 kilos
>>36776948
yeah, your hands
assuming you don't let go the actual instant the bar snaps
look at OP's gif, he holds on for a second so the bar swings
>>36777059
>the bar swings
the weights drop straight down, they would in ohp too.
>>36776827
that's fucking nothing m8, imagine...
BARBELL FLYS
>>36777657
OH THE HORROR
>>36776793
I already have nightmares about regular lifting accidents, this shit is going to be added into the rotation.
>>36776910
I OHP in the squat rack, so if the bar snaps, it'll hit the safety rails instead of my head.
>>36778282
Doing the God's work, Anon.
We need to teach people to The Press in the The Squat rack for their own as well as the whole gym's safety.
>>36776813
>>36776694
>>36776711
Fuckin kek look at the boner he has in another pic
>>36778341
Like you wouldn't be rock hard in such scenario.
I don't think I could control myself and not rape all four of them.
>>36778363
I'm pretty sure that was the end game desu
>>36776793
Imagine a front squat
god punished him for his 1/16th rom
>>36778447
if I could front squat enough to break a bar, I've already reached enlightenment and dying would be A O K
>>36778447
A new definition of "chin ups" indeed
>>36776678
It was a 20lb training bar I believe. It has the same length but not thickness to hold that weight.
>>36776678
Some bars are rated higher than others, depends on the quality control and the tensile strength.
Generaly cheap bars bend, they don't break, but a bar too hard or with a weakness can break and it's not pretty to see.
This guy was lucky because he was backsquating, not front squating. And the weights fell on the other side of the rack, not on his feets/legs
>>36776827
lol just like in Star Wars.
>>36776648
What I wouldn't do to curb stomp this fucking ugly creep.
>>36779054
more importantly the snapped bar would impale his fucking head
>>36776637
No, because I don't go to some poverty-tier gym where you don't have proper barbells.
Imagine doing the rack position after a clean and it snaps in half like in OP.
Your head is flying off, bro.
>>36776637
no my partner usually is gentle during barbell butt sex
>>36781862
it would be a nasty laceration to the underside of your mandible; if you're extremely unlucky it might sever an artery (I can't see it, though).
>>36776910
Never teach anyone your version of physics. Leave that to the smart people.
>>36778282
So it would start falling safely to your sides, but then each side would hit the safety rail and rapidly rotate inward and slice you in half the long way like a giant pair of scissors?
Possible?
