Question of the Day #11

Q1: What is the proper name for the lines that go around a barbell and aid hand placement?

Q2: If one were to do a Steinborn lift with a barbell what would they be doing?

Q3: What 1980 comedy hit featured the 1957 Chevy shown below and a load of other classic cars and was based largely around a hamburger joint and Smitty's Speed Shop?

    Come on gant I thought youd get these

    1 = snatch rings.

    2 = close yhea but you squat after getting the barbell off the floor by proping one side up off the floor and onto your back then tilting it up.

    3= yup thats it.

    Never heard of snatch rings. That's a new one for me.

    I thought you meant the lift component of the Steinborn. We had an odd lift day once where we did max Steinborn, max leg press (lying on our back, barbell on feet), and other silliness.
