165kg for 1 rep no belt or straps, natural...........aiming to improve this lift to my target of 200kg

robbiedont · 13-01-2008, 12:34 PM

100kg x 5 no belt, no straps just chalk

Personally my best (most satisfying) deadlift was 20 x 180kg non stop continuous reps.
This was in the gym using a set of straps at a bodyweight of around 100kg - i cant tell you how good that set felt - it was a PB in terms of weight and endurance and rivaled only by the satisfaction of my first marathon.

The heaviest i ever pulled from the floor was 250kg - raw and using a double overhand grip.
I went for 272kg after this, again using a double overhand grip and couldn't lock the fcuker out. Oh well...
This was at a deadlift competition promoting a new gym - where guys my weight were opening with 300kg+ (albeit wearing suits etc)
I certainly wasn't going to win on weight so had to resort to showing off my grip

Very impressive lifting Punk, 180 x 20 is hard going.

Some serious grip strength as well to pull that double over hand,

punkfloyd · 13-01-2008, 02:05 PM

Thanks Nytol,

Im not quite Mobster Steve but i've been told the old grip ain't bad.
I attribute it to many lonely years as a single guy....

PMSL,

190 with straps for 3 reps, not bad for 13.4 stone i think

Chris4Pez · 13-01-2008, 03:17 PM

I managed for the first time the other day to do 100kg for 4 reps without any assistance of any straps, belt, chalk or anything else and that was after doing 3 sets of 10 with 70-90!

so my weights are certainly going up

Chris4Pez · 13-01-2008, 03:19 PM

oh thats at a body weight of around 85-90kg (15st)

tommy28 · 13-01-2008, 03:51 PM

220 for 8 using straps but no belt. need to work on my grip!

BLUE(UK) · 13-01-2008, 07:33 PM

220kg x1 is my best(5x20kg per side).
At present i am coming back from a lower back injury after 5years i am up to 180kg x2reps.
I weigh about 105kg and lifetime drug free.
Must say some of the weights being talked about here are 'suspect' to say the least.Reason i say this,i am second highest deadlifter in the gym i use and highest goes to a guy who does the 'strongman UK' comps but even he doesn't do as much as what quite a few people on here are claiming at very low bodyweights.

have fun,stay real.

i'm inclined to disagree with you. If someone as genetically weak as me can deadlift 155kg, then your average person should easily be able to achieve significantly more.

220kg for 1 is ok......if your arms are as long as t-rex dinnasour and even dig who has even shorter arms than that can drag up close to 300kg in an hour or so

lol

Also no offence but drug free means very little in deadlifts, i could pull 280kg before touching any thing and then i could take whatever the hell i wanted and it still took a **** load of hard work to get to 350kg in the gym and i "drag my knuckles on the floor" as some people like to point out!!!!

dmcc · 13-01-2008, 10:27 PM

I'm doing about 110kg for reps (with straps) and I have a weak back - so I look forward to that weight creeping up as it gets stronger. A year ago I was gingerly doing 60 at best.
