next stop 655![]()
After seeing that picture I just want to duck out of work and hit the gym now...that is just awesome.Tweakle said:thanks guys, my goal now is rep work, I want to hit 585 for 5 by the end of the year before I try another max. hopefully by then I'll be good for 655.
Last time I got 615 I was wearing a belt so I guess this was even more satisfying to pull without one.

thanks bro..seems pretty simple..i always pull double overhand dont know why i started that way and have stuck with it ever since..Tweakle said:sure although it's nothing fancy, no conjuated periodization or wave loading or any of the other stuff you 'must' do to get stronger. I dont even have a set training schedule and I usually only do a couple of sets of 4-5 and maybe a backdown of 10 when I deadlift. I'm squatting, 4-5 days off, squat again, 4-5 days off, deadlift, squat, deadlift, squat, squat. And thats it right now
Box squats might be helping.. sometimes I do sumo and stiff leg deads to make sure I'm working every muscle, I do them relatively slowly and without the explosive pull I use on conv deads.
I've not worked my upper body for like 2 months now so the extra recovery ability from that must be helping a little
Straps.. yeah I pull overhand now because I think a mixed grip weakened my shoulder and led to the blowout & the slight twisting was starting to grind down my back. I'll do partials without straps to keep my grip strong but not full range.
but its mostly just that I have a genetically huge ass and hips, I was pulling 405 for 5 after a year of training...

Its all good..just through me off because I am at work.eat big said:its not all porn, it has a link to a video of ronnie coleman doing an 800lb deadlift twice, easily, no sweat, i posted that link but i guess it takes you right to the sight
wow my bad, it did work about 5 hours ago, if you wanna see it PM me and i will send it to you, its one of those sites that doesnt let you go past the homepage, if you wanna see it scroll down and look under the vids section, theres like 16 of them, and on the bottom row second from left, there is a ronnie coleman clip
my bad bros
i have to agree with you here. i am the same way! i can own squats and DLs. i could pull 405 in about the same training time. now about 2 years in i can pull 495 for 2. good form too. none of that "i'm dying and will leverage the whole lift with my back."Tweakle said:but its mostly just that I have a genetically huge ass and hips, I was pulling 405 for 5 after a year of training...
