Deadlift: Choking's Illegal Tee

If you can't choke them, you're going to have to outlift them. The Deadlift: Choking's Illegal tee from Conquering Barbell is for the lifter who settles disputes under the bar instead of with their hands, since one of those gets you banned from the gym. A classic illustrated strongman locks out a heavy pull, mustache and all, with the CB shield stamped on his singlet. DEADLIFT arcs above in bold collegiate lettering, CHOKING'S ILLEGAL anchors below in heavy block type, and CONQUERING BARBELL EST. 2014 finishes it off in a clean script line. The single-color vintage graphic keeps this one simple, sharp, and gym-floor ready.

Made on a garment-dyed heavyweight cotton tee for a broken-in feel straight out of the bag. The relaxed fit, lived-in texture, and vintage wash make it a go-to whether you are heading into a heavy session or walking out of one.

  • 100% ring-spun cotton, garment-dyed for a soft, worn-in feel
  • Heavyweight construction with a relaxed, oversized fit
  • Garment dye process creates a unique vintage texture on every shirt
  • Front graphic with premium print quality
  • Classic unisex crew neck and short-sleeve cut
  • Available in ivory, pepper, and black

Every order is printed after you place it. Tees, tanks and hoodies ship in 7–10 business days (after the payment clears). Flags ship in 10–14 business days (after the payment clears). Weekends and holidays don’t count.

Priority Mail shows at checkout when your order’s weight qualifies. It speeds up delivery, not printing.

To prolong the lifespan of your Conquering Barbell apparel we recommend the following care process.

  • Launder/wash cold with like colors
  • Wash inside out
  • Tumble dry low, or hang dry
  • If desired, steaming can be utilized to remove wrinkles; do not iron.

    “Walks the walk.”

    THE BEST brand on the market hands down. Walks the walk and talks the talk. Amazing art work and design too. Fits perfectly and just like the guy above saying they abuse the shirts in the gym, same lol.

    “The perfect pump cover.”

    The relaxed fit one I got recently is the perfect pump cover/extra layer for me. In Alaska the gym can feel cool at times and I hate being cold when I train. Mississippi boy. I just order 3 more. CB versus erbody

A little help with the fit

Find your fit. Then chase the PR.

Like it snug on the arms? Room to breathe under the bar? Start with a shirt you already love.

  1. 1

    Lay your favorite shirt flat.

    Measure straight across, armpit to armpit. That's the chest width.

  2. 2

    Check the length.

    Measure from the back collar seam straight down to the bottom hem.

  3. 3

    Match it to ours.

    Compare with our garment measurements, or let Find my size do the math.

In their words

  • “Fits the big boys.”

    Really comfortable shirt for the big boys. I got the 3XL (I currently weight 305lbs standing at 6'1") and it fits perfectly. A little breathing room so on and so forth and it hangs lower than your normal tee. If you're about my size and want a tighter fit I would recommend the 2XL. Definitely recommend Conquering Barbell and will be back to purchase more.

  • “Exceeded Expectations!”

    Just received my order (3 flags & 2 tee shirts) & was genuinely surprised at how good the quality is. The flags themselves feel high quality, the black background is dark and the material feels substantial. The image on the flags is vivid & sharp with no “bleed over” at the edges of the image. The tee shirts again feel substantial. The images are sharp and vivid with a thickness to them that feels like the print will last. I ordered size L in the oversized tee’s and wasn’t sure how over sized they would be. I was pleasantly surprised that for my build they actually fit comfortably snug in the chest / back / arms & trim in the waist. (For context 5’9, 195)

    All in all, the quality exceeded what I was expecting & I will absolutely be ordering again soon. . Also & important to me, Audie (the owner) was extremely responsive in answering my emails even at evening hours. Great purchase for me.

  • “The fit makes you look jacked.”

    I ordered a shirt from Conquering Barbell, and the quality is fantastic! The fit makes you look jacked, and the fabric is super comfortable. I had a shipping problem (not their fault), and Audie took care of me right away. I will for sure be ordering again!!!
