Can u deadlift 200kg/440 lbs?

[Man of Steel]

That machine,on that day ruined me. 

Right there with ya....and I love hacks too......was a life changer.

[snx]

I can deadlift just a smidge (20lbs or so, depending on the day) more than 440lbs.

Regardless of bodyweight.

I've done it at 215lbs, and at 275lbs (fat phase). More bodyweight has never done anything for increasing/decreasing my deadlift. I am officially maxed out on the lift and have been for several years. I have a long torso and shorter legs and arms, which makes me ill suited for the lift (great for squatting and benching though).

But I'm done heavy lifting for the most part. A couple of weeks ago I pulled 430 from the floor to see if I could still do it after a year or so of not trying. It felt real heavy, and I don't think I care to try it again.

Dumbbell or Barbell?

Barbell. It puts your hands in front of you with an overhand grip. See how long you can hold 225....315...

640lbs in a meet.  675 at the gym

At about 185lbs I randomly deadlifted 405lbs w ease when my brother was doing them. Never deadlifted before, and haven't to this day after that. I enjoy doing stiff legged deads for hamstrings, but I've been too afraid of injury to throw them into my routine or do them seriously. I can definitely see the benefit of size/strength that they add.

Good timing on your question.   I pull today. Only two more workouts before competition.  Cycle calls for 600 x 1(set) x 3(reps).   Should go nicely.  Looking to go 620-640 @220.  

Weights moved slowly but a nice clean triple. Of course NO STRAPS.

[tommywishbone]

Tommy,what meet are you doing and is just pulling or is benching and squats included?

Go for it brother!  

The meet has a Full Power division and a Deadlift only division. I am only going to deadlift.  I cycled my squats along with my deads (for the hip & leg power) but I did not cycle my BP's or even train them on "chest" day.

Thanks Wes!

Best in competition is 620....biggest rep PR 425X12...last monday. I've hit a 535X5 last training cycle. 635 is my goal for the next meet.

6 plates a side, legit with people around. no straps, just chalk

[Danimal77]

That`s 355kg  not pounds.This was in the 100kg bodyweight class

Do you have an actual pic of you actually completing the lift successfully? For all we know you couldn't get it passed your ankles.

[Hulkotron]

[dnduque]

[thebrink]

440 for maybe 10 or12. Maybe at the moment.

So I guess I have the greatest deadlift on this thread ..again 640 in a meet 675@gym
  boom!

[Uncle Junior]

I am.  Thats not even my final form.  Arms are fat there and so is everything else.  I probably should start posting new pictures.  Or maybe not... ha ha ha

I am about 11 weeks out right now as a matter of fact.  

So basically you must be genetic freak, you do realize that impossible for 98% of natty's right???

[backday]

worst form ever.

And yet one of the strongest backs pound for pound, and never an injury 

[headhuntersix]

Some guys round out like that....if he's walking around what difference does it make.

Nope, no with that weight, but an oficial world record prof at 40 years old.Tell me if you are happy now

[SCRUBS]

Did you guys with herniated discs get them from dead lifting?

[dnduque]

no slipped disk from deadlifting...started doing them after...and knock on wood back feel stabler....probably got it from banging fat girls

[tommywishbone]

Nope, no with that weight, but an oficial world record prof at 40 years old.Tell me if you are happy now

760 pounds @242 pounds.

Nice. Real nice.

My training buddy is a good deadlifter 320kg/705lbs. I know you need the right build for that lift yada yada, but i've seen 5.3 bb:s pull 240kg/530lbs. The dude who pulls 320kg says that ANY healthy man with some manhood should be able to pull 200kg/440lbs.
I could do this at 16 y/o. 3 or 4 months after learning the lift. Back then i was clean as well.  260x1 is my best single (bw 235 lbs...on1g sustanon as well), consider 210kg/460 x 21 is better though (bw of 200 lbs, about 5 weeks out on 500mg test, 1g eq, 50mg wintabs ed)  What about yourself whats your best pull?

no

[backday]

Nice. Real nice.

Thanks man, and good luck in your meeting.
