20lb PR on Russian Deadlift

Hey everyone! I just went back to doing russian deadlifts off the floor again today. (a deadlift with the bar behind the legs) I got 585lbs for one rep. 565 was my best before that. The rack pulls really helped, that and the additional ab work Ive been doing. It felt real nice to hit 6 plates a side. I tried 600lbs but was so beat up after a total of 6 hours in the gym. Next time I try them Im sure Ill get it. ThanX for the encouragement everyone. Will be trying 370 raw on the bench on thursday most likely. Hope to get it this time!!
 
One of these days, I'm going to wash some Russian dbols down with vodka, then go to the gym and do Russian deadlifts.

ThanX guys!! haha Actually Im not really sure what to call the movement. It seems "russian deadlifts" are like GM's?? Im confused. But what I did was just like a deadlift, only difference is the bar is behind the legs instead of in front. =)
 
ThanX Ish and Suston! Wasnt sure what to call it, see so many names for it on the net. Doesnt seem to be too popular, but its my favorite lift. ThanX again guys!
 
congrats on the pr man....thats alot of weight...dont think i have enough cordination to do those w/o falling over.lol

haha ThanX King! The movement feels much more natural to me then a standard deadlift :D
 
Sure bro! ThanX man! Hows the training been?

Youre welcome dude. Trainings good, I followed the advice that you and the other training board fellas gave me, and created the "Super Ultra Hyper Family Fun Fuzzy Incredible Routine". Its been going great so far. Tmr delt day. Its 12am here in Burnaby, so good night dude and good luck with your lifts.

Nice!!! I look forward to seeing the FLEXED pics. If those others were relaxed you must be a behemoth flexed! haha My next batch of pics may be in april,but I do plan on getting a video up of some of my lifts within the next few months. My size gains take a long time anyway lately. =)

Great lift, Beast.

You been squatting at all?


Hey Zander! No...Havent been doing any squats. I stopped training legs seperately for now, cuz it takes away greatly from my deadlift strength. So the only leg training Im getting is from deadlift variations. Though I dont feel these in my legs much at all.
 
beast + brute = longest threads ever!

You two have massive signatures and funny back and forth banter...very entertaining! :D

they are done with 60% of your 1RM(much like speed bench except the precentage). of course, you warm-up to that weight and do your 10x3(30 second rest) with 60% of 1RM...sound punishing to you?? tb

Nice. Would that be the entire routine? 10 sets of 3. Problem is my squats are still shaky so I dont know my max yet.

no..it doesn't have to. you can follow it up with something else. usually when i do those i do speed deadlifts for 7 singles(7x1). and if you do both speed squats and speed deadlifts in the same workout, i think you'll have enough energy for another exercise and some abs..LOL. if you want to know how do to these, visit this site here:
