Isnt that a bit too much? I think doing a total of 243 reps of the same exercise is overtraining. And a 75 minute workout seems long to. I have heard thatit should usually be between 40-45 minutes or under. Im not an expert though and could be wrong
 
holy crap thats a overkill on a work out!!! sheesh! Slash over half of those sets out! and put in some lateral pull downs and back extensions weighted. and do some T-Bar deads, may not have named that correctly but thats the one where you load up one side of the bar and stand over it and pull it up to your chest with both arms while bent over
 
wow.... that is all i have to say.
you need to add more than deadlifts.
try wide grip chins, chins or lateral pulldowns, tons of rows, bb rows, and some deadlift variations and spinal erector exercises like good mournings.

the only thing i realy see as 'wrong' is that you did too maby 'warmup' sets.., 135 for 20 is a bit much and the sets of 10's could be 3 or 5's at most , and as strong as you are you could have made bigger jumps in weight. do you ever pull off the floor?...
i see no need to overcomplicate things with other exercises , and as much as you are pulling you have obviously been doing this for a while and have let your cns adapt to the heavy weight..,
Kill THAT SHIT!!!

For deadlifts just build up to one set 3-5 reps maximum weight possible while maintaining good form. Scrap that 315x100 and cut all those sets to warm up, you dont need that many. Your CNS takes time to recover from deads and doind that many sets just isnt healthy. However, it takes time to find the best jumps in weight for warming up for your own body.
 
LOL @ you guys giving him back training advice. He's pulling 800+ out of the rack. Obviously he's been doing this a while. Bigdave you're a competitive PLer, right? What weight class do you compete in? The 2628 in your username, is that your total?

I don't mean to be rude or offensive here, but I think I need to throw the BS flag on this one.

I feel my chain getting yanked a bit :biggrin:

I'm with you, if you are pulling 800+ you don't waste time with 135 x 10 twice in a row, lol

For warm up most power lifters will make increments of 90 on their warm up sets and only reps of 3 or so. 135 x 3, 225 x 3, 315 x 3, 405 x 3 etc.

I agree with this assessment
 
I just looked up the record total for the drugged up, multi-ply canvas, half-squat, "What's a lockout?" WPO. Its held by Andy Bolton at 2806.

Quadruple ply canvas/poly hybrid bench shirts you say?

I wish the OP would post up. I remember him coming on here a while back and he posted some gaudy stats. Maybe I should use my platinum power :biggrin:

I'm 6 1' 280 lbs 30yrs old. Im already extremley strong have a 500lb bench press 800lb deadlift and 650lb squat all raw. Current diet is 400 grams of protein all from chicken or steak and get most of my carbs from veggies. Workout like a mad man when I hit the gym if thats not how you workout then dont bother.

That's a burly fucker if those aren't e-stats. I actually kinda believe him.....

Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that I work out with a few of the strongest guys there are. I have never seen them do this kind of DL volume or workout.

After studying Ed Coan and Captain Kirk, I can say with reasonable certainty that this would not be a workout they would do either.

But, WTF do I know? There are a lot of freaks out there that can do amazing things.

FOR EVERYONES QUESTIONS:
Im not going to say i can do something if i cant. I do this back workout every couple of months to give it one hell of a shock to spark new growth. I dont compete and never will compete. I just
love lifting heavy and trying to do the impossible. I have always been extremely strong my whole life. In high school I paused rep 400lbs raw on the bench press at a bodyweight of 176lbs. I always warm-up differently when I workout. Sometimes I'll warm-up with 100reps on the deadlift w/the 45lb bar or 100reps on the bench w/the 100lb bar. Im 6'1" and currently at 270lbs. Just turned 31 in january. I lift for me and not for a trophy or someones amusement.
 
I did mine raw. If it was not raw, then who gives a crap. My own opinion using a shirt,deadlift suit or squat suit is not a true lift. Again my own opinion.
 
big numbers, that's something to be proud of. I can't imagine what a small fraction of the worlds population has the strength that you do. I would love to know what it's like to have that kind of strength. One of the things I've noticed, as my strength has doubled, tripled, is how light everyday objects feel. A full gallon of milk, something that normal people consider heavy, must feel weightless to you. That's awesome. How do you not break someone's had, by shaking it?


That reminds my of a strong friend, that was awkward and didn't know his own strength. He would routinely, accidently crush an ice cream cone, as he tries to eat it. Or squeezes and punctures his fingers through a Styrofoam cup, spilling his drink all over. Funny stuff.

Anyways, thanks for sharing!

No point and dont brag about nothing. Always see other people post there workout, so thought I would post mine. Have been a natural lifter upto this past january, then started taking AAS supps.

True, I have seen many more ridiculous/ pointless posts than this.

I still don't understand the point behind all that volume with the lighter weight's on your way up to your working weight.
 
Don't mind the haters BigDave. Those are some good numbers and you clearly know what you are doing.

FOr what it is worth, I do sets with the bar as part of the warm up and to make sure I'm in the right groove. Wonder what they will make of that!

Not a hater but someone who is confident enough about himself with these marks would clearly be competeing! Still deadlifts 3 inches below knees are rack pulls, wanna know your max strength potential on any lift? Don't go past 13-14 reps that way you won't be converting any fyber that potentially would become fast twitch into slow twitch. Now here is a good example about someone who had great potential but didn't have what it took to be a champion belgian Serge Reding:

YouTube - Serge Redding - 502lb. (228kg.) Clean & Press

few minutes later... Vasily Alexeev

YouTube - Vasily Alexeev - 230kg. (507lb.) Clean & Press

Alexeev talking about Reding and other comments:

"Even Alexeyev once said of him, "If I had his huge muscles there's no telling what I could accomplish!"

" Many people are convinced that Serge Reding, the incredibly massive Belgian weighlifter, was physically capable of beating Alexeyev. He broke several of Alexeyev's records in minor contests and many felt he would be the next champion. But every time he went head to head against Alexeyev he seemed to choke and failed to duplicate his record lifts. I have been talking to several international lifters who confirm that Serge was certainly the strongest of that time. Even Alexeyev used to state that Reding was the strongest man in the world at the time. But he always said that he had the stronger mind and that he would defeat Reding every time (what he actually mostly did).

"

"...do 2 reps with 180 kg (396lbs) seated neck-press, starting out of the neck. In squatting I know about easy 330 kg (726lbs) squats but some people claim to have seen even more spectacular results. Some people tell they saw him him do FULL squats during the early 1970s for 5 reps with 400kg (880lbs) with no wraps, suit or belt."

So if you really are that good don't waste your life being something else, train hard, smart and be part of weightlifting history, only a few of us are going to be remembered till the end of times anyway!

I don't agree with that first sentence. If 'would' was changed to 'should' then you might have a point.

Not everybody lifts just to prove they are stronger than the next guy. Not everybody does it for recognition. Some just do it to compete against themselves. Others because it helps in their job etc.

I could also make the point that powerlifting feds are fk'd up. All that different equipment in different feds. Ridiculous. Even if you are top dog in most feds many don't respect you. What would competing accomplish?

"Should" sounds like bossy, "Would" defies and challenges that's why my choice.

Someone who does his workouts based on squats, deads and bench clearly means business.

There are other competions than powerlifting with equipment, strongman competions, raw powerlifting and olympiclifting.
 
I don't have any issue with equipment. Far from it. Just wish there was some consistency about it all.

Bro, Im not wasting my life. I travel around the world doing feats of strength and watching people change there life threw something I have said or done. For me lifting big and doing something that said cant be done is bigger than a trophy I could win at a competition. Don't have to compete for people to remember me.

This is awesome. I really admire that.

I know a guy who used to travel with a christian power team. They would travel around the country and perform feats of strength.
 
congrats on your progress and thank you for sharing your routine with us.
