whats your deadlift max?

[Dz_7]

I'm 16 since May, been training for about two years, one of wihch has been powerlifting. I specialize in bench, but my deadlift max is around 350 @ 175.

My best pull is 555@181. For me, shorter cycles with bigger jumps work better than longer cycles. I feel more recovered when I allow eight or nine days in between pulling sessions.

I get nervous going heavy w/ deads. Too old and had too many injuries! Most I ever rep is 345, bumped it up last back day and pulled 365 easily. I'm gonna work up to 405 over the next month or so, but am pleased so far. I have grip issues, (skinny hands) and am only 195ish at just over 6'. Funny though, I train at a local gym, and a Golds. In the past year I've seen maybe a handfull of guys doing deads.

i doubt anyone will ever hit over 1000.

Andy Bolton will get it soon, mark my words. He's close already...

I agree, heavy deads are extremely taxing on your CNS and it takes a long time to attain that high of fitness level or work capacity to where heavy deads don't kick your ass for two solid weeks.

You can pull heavy every week. You just need to monitor your total volume. I dont pull anything heavier than a single on any DL type movement, nor do I train under 85% inless deloading or speed training.

A lot of people might think they can deadlift a lot, but I have seen someone pull 405 with wrist straps and only 300 bare handed. And I once saw someone deadlift 500 with a trap bar and only able to do like 395-410.

i just came into the forum looking for something on deads

i have done deads 4 times over the past 5 years - one session yesterday, one session about a year ago, and a couple of bullshit sessions sometimes before that

im natural, dieting (low cal, low carb ), weigh 178ish at the moment at 5 9, and i pulled 400 for one after a couple of work sets at 320

cant say i felt much the next day though, dont know if ill do it again..
