deadlift and stalling

[raneyer]

My deadlift has gotten to 4 plates then stalled out, I’ve stunk at deadlifts for a while now, maybe it is due to my short limbs I dunno. But it is one of my weaker lifts. I was thinking of gradually adding a little weight every 5 days when I do them to trick the body that way. Or is there another trick you recommend

Like any exercise you just have to Implement progressive overload to success and get better. That means continuously pushing to increase workload, reps and/or weight

You should keep at this weight for a few months then add 2.5lbs every few weeks to get up there in weight

that strategy may work in the short term but it will not work long term. not how our bodies are built and if it was true you could just add a little weight weekly and after 5 years be able to lift 1000 pounds like magic.

the best advice i can give you is build consistency at a lower weight

Isn't adding weight, even a little every 5 days, kinda what you're supposed to do? How's that different from normal progression?

Progressive overload

I would probably take a week or 2 off of doing deadlifts, then start with a slightly lower weight and add 5lbs each time you lift. You will gradually work up from there.
