The point of the chains is to strengthen my sticking point which is around my knees. As I initiate the lift, I pull 245kg off the floor but then the chains raise makes the lift heavier and forces me to get stronger throughout the lift.
At lockout, there would be approximately 40kg of added weight as not all the chains are off the floor.
The aim is to complete a 245kg deadlift triple with 50kg of chains.
Add 50kg of chains to all sets.
