How much do you deadlift ?

[cwick0]

lol
126%
315 (10 reps) @ 250lbs
sorry, bad knees, wont go past 315 on deads or squats.

lol i'll spot you the bench

Duly noted, we should battle it out on the ohp though,lol.

 

[french tickler]

i weigh 260 and deadlift close to 500 so i dunno

lol... so that would be around 192%

405@200

 

[Tweakle]

588 @ 210.

most people's DL strength lags because they don't work the lift very hard, which is a shame because for hardgainers it's one of the best things you can do (and consistantly working it hard you will get strong at it, unlike the squat or bench where most 'average' people will struggle to get big numbers)

325 @ 180. no straps or belt though. and it was on a bad day in the gym. so maybe 340. probably like 370 with a belt and straps.

Buy some chalk. It is night and day.

Agreed. It makes all the difference. I can grip over 700 with chalk and a mixed grip. Definately adds a few hundred pounds of grip and allows you to hold on for a long time. If not chalk, Id use straps as to not sacrifice heavy deadlifting because of a bad grip.

I'm the only one who does less than 75% of her bodyweight...

I do my really heavy sets with a 70 bar... and I'm 120. But my bench is really good. I can do 55 with one of the big bars with a 5 on each side for 10 reps. Grrrrrrr.......
