Once a week and blasting through PR's almost every week for the past 6 months. I started off 6 months ago with a max of 405lbs (first deadlift session ever). Now I am maxing out at 635lbs. I don't think I'll be adding or diminishing the frequency or intesity of this particular lift any time soon.

Thank you lil homie. Squats is the next biggest improvement. That lift went from 365 for a few shitty reps to 550lbs for 3 solid reps. Bench didn't go up tremendously but these 6 months were focused on deads and squats. Also, I finally figured out that technique on bench was all messed which is why I was having so many shoulder issues. Once I saw this clip a few months back, things started popping into place (literally). YouTube - Dave Tate's Six-Week Bench Press Cure

thats a great video iv seen it several times, the thing I have a hard time with is my wrists and exploding off the chest. But I doubt there is a single person who can say their bench technique is 100% perfect.
I can pull heavy conventional deads (3-5 reps) from the floor once per week while squatting on a separate day and recover just fine.
I also like pulling SLDLs from the floor after squats on leg days for sets of 5 and then pull from the rack just below the knees on back day. This is the only way I can train deads twice a week and recover.
