Long arms and short legs is the ideal structure for the deadlift

*Long arms, short back

Anyone who can pull 5 plates a side or more is very strong.

All depends on a persons bodyweight.

A fat fuck who weighs 400 pounds doing 405 for 8 is not strong relative to his bodyweight.

Usually the ratio for a respectable DL is 2X your bwt, just about the same for the squat. A 200lb guy than does 400. Exceptional DL would be 2 1/2 times your bwt.

2 reps 4 wheels on each side is the best I ever did - 4 wheels are like the magic weight on deadlift - I had to take 3 month off due
to my wrist but I am back to 3 1/2 wheels on each side x 6 reps.

I have always been good at deadlifts (relative to my other lifts), maybe it's because i'm 6ft.2, i think i heard that being taller is an advantage in this one lift. Once the weight is a few inches off the floor i have no problem getting it up, it's the initial drive i find hardest.

I'm shit at squats though.
 :(

Try deadlifting while standing on a 6" box. It will help with your intitial drive.
