Re: "Karl"
Seems I wasn't too far from the mark when I jested we call benching up from the 600' a "Karl" maneuver. Check out what I found on Wiktionary.org...

Karl derived from Swedish
...
Usage notes
Has connotations of being manly, and is as such somewhat frowned upon by believers in gender equality; but it also may have connotations of being able to perform a certain task. C.f. the formulaic expression karl för sin ... (with some attribute), which denotes someone who is up to par with his role, and is able to perform at least by some minimal standards on his own.
