So what im saying is I progressed at the start I couldn't even do 130 on trap bar so over time short period of time my lifts went up dramitacly in all area's. What ppl fail to add in as well is your average trap bar is 15 to 20 kgs heavier than normal bbs.most gridion and rugby sides are implementing trap bar deads because of the explosive all round power and strengh they can deliver in comparison to traditional bbs. Just saying
These clubs don't use it because it is seen as safer option??
"The trap bar was originally patented in 1985 by a powerlifting aficionado named Al Gerard, who was trying to find a way to train around a recurring lower back injury. It has since gained widespread support among many coaches as a back-friendly alternative to both traditional straight-bar deadlifts and squats."

Another little extract from Bret Contreras's site aka The Glute Guy
"Many coaches (including myself) have theorized that the trap bar deadlift allows lifters to:
1. Lift more weight
2. Place less loading on the spine, and
3. Get more knee extensor involvement
These findings were all shown to be true in a brand new study by Swinton et al. (2011) titled A Biomechanical Analysis of Straight and Hexagonal Barbell Deadlifts Using Submaximal Loads."
Might help to explain some of your gains

why didn't you just say
serious gains - I went from 130kg trap bar deadlift to 200kg trap bar deadlift?
You're hiding behind "oh it's what body building is about" while making "strength" gain claims.
you might be highly confident that there is a carry over... so go ahead..
load up a regular BB and start at 160 and do singles and increase the weight till you fail.
lets see how much carry over there is...
bet you won't... because body builder so not important.
lol..
It's great you got stronger at trap bar deadlifts.
but it is not a deadlift as most people know a deadlift.
are your numbers on bench and rows also the new number on the trap bar?
or are they the new numbers on regular BB?
as in, you were benching 100kg on a BB before and after some time benching with a trap bar, you can now do 120kg on BB bench?

I'm starting the trap bar fed, wanna join. Three lift comps, multi ply, special trap bar monos.
It'll be good, we can all set world records on the trap bar and get around claiming national and world records in powerlifting. They still count in gear why shouldn't they count with the trap bar.
That would be great!!!! if ppl actually gave a fuck about power lifting. ..
Excellent you are member #2 & vice president.
Congratulations on your world record in the deadlift at whatever weight category you are in.
I have white lighted the lift and will put your medal in the post.
Now all we need is a cool logo and some t-shirts.
Oh oh can I please be junior vice president? Please please ??
