last night...450 6-10 times depending. Been doing them for 2 months now after stopping for a long time, and cant believe I ever did. Nothing makes my back and traps thicken up and grow.
I do 3/4 deadlifts in the squat rack, usually get around 585 for 4-7reps with straps. i don't like deading off the floor, to easy to pull or hurt something.

I agree. I got away from them for years and just went back about 6 months ago. While I rarely get sore from doing them (I am learing slowly that soreness is not a sign of growth, but for me a sign of over training that body part) they make me grow like crazy - true physique changing exercise. If I could only do 2 exercises it would be deads and back squats.
My last set of five I did was at 350. I also do several sets with 225 after my heavy sets. I think I am around the 405 mark for my max and growing. I just started deadlifting again after a year off. I am 6'2'' 210.
Most I have tried was 425. I use double over hand with straps but when I do them again I will not be using straps. I do good morning now instead and maybe some rack pulls.
have done 500 conventional, no belt no wraps no shoes...however due to a forearm injury while doing heavy rack deads i now have to use wraps and double over whichcaused me to start back from square one or 225 lol but am now back to mid fours for 2 sets of 5 reps.....
