This is 320 lbs. The bar looks stupid lol because at home I just have a basic weight set and only 2 pies. I weigh 180 lbs and I dont do any powerlifting so i guess this is a decent amount of weight for me. Just wanted to share it!

I have no idea. I never tried it. Try it out for a few sets and see how it goes bro. Let me know what you think.

Baby powder (talc) reduces friction, it doesn't increase it. Chalk (magnesium carbonate) increases the friction. Don't use baby powder to increase grip. The only time I've seen baby powder used is on a powerlifters' legs in order to ease the drag on the shins and thighs.

ive used it on my deadlifts the last time and i got some new pr's, because whenever i deadlift my hands are sweaty and wet all the time, only thing i have access to is baby powder

Well it does soak up moisture, that's why it's sprinkled on babies haha Use what you want, but the properties of them are different. Perhaps your deadlift is just getting stronger?

Chalk on the hands, baby powder on the legs.

If you're non-powerlifting/strongman dont worry about using straps.

Lookin good AINU! Keep up the good work.

Deadlifts are a back exercise, if you can work your back more efficiently by using straps then it's stupid to not use them for the sake of your forearms.

If it makes you feel any better:

And solid work to the OP.
