Whats a respectable Deadlift?
« on: March 19, 2009, 12:46:36 AM »
I do 8 reps with 4 wheels on either side, is that respectable  ???   :-[ My grip starts to fail before my back and legs.

I'm going to keep increasing the weight untill i can get 6 wheels either side for 8 reps then i'm gonna stick on it. I'm gonna do this with bench press aswell when i get to 3 wheels either side. No point going any higher because you will wind up getting injured.

405 for 8 is very good, in my opinion.

That's a good lift.

The best i have done is 4 plates a side for 4 with straps.

500 for 1 rep is correct.

I would say the same - well, for me anyway seeing as I'm shit at deadlifts. I've never hit the magical five plates a side.

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.

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