Hey, I'll take a crack at this. My BW today was 189lb/85.9kg.
My last big 1RM was 308lb /140kg back in August.
Hitting 378lb / 171.8kg is going to be tough, but I'm up to try it.
kib's numbers
Metric conversion:
100lb / 2.2 = 45.45kg
100kg * 2.2 = 220lb

Here is one thing that I've been wondering about. What does the winner get besides the feeling of a job well done and a pat on the back? Is there anyway for Mehdi to add like a little appellation in the forums denoting somebody has accomplished the 2XBW Squat challenge? Or maybe a way to change the color of the users name form blue to yellow or some other distinguishing color?

Anyone who can put up a 2xBW squat should get a custom forum title, and their name added to a list or something.

Yeah, that guy was insane. I thought he had good lifts, but then I found out he was doing them at 120-something, that's when I was really impressed. Too bad he disappeared, I really wanted to know how his meet went and if he hit that 365 deadlift.
