for a noob to deadlifting, thats awesome goin! with some stimulus from the PLing guys, you could have the potential for big numbers!! what height are you?

Ive just started working on reps on the deadlift again, started yesterday, changed back to conventional and pulled 200x8. Trying to improve my lock out part of the deadlift as when pulling sumo can fly the weight of the floor but then struggle getting my hips threw to lock out.
Want to hit 320x1 by June.

I have only been back into training about 3 months after a very long break. But i can deadlift 190kg x 5 but i use a trap bar.

steveg · 29-12-2006, 02:19 PM

Thanx, Im 5ft 6".
A few mates are starting to get ready for the national championships in march/april and then the GPC europeans and i said id train as much with them as possible. Itl help me put on a bit of bulk where i want it.
In the new year the program their starting is with the different weighted bands, so this week is probably the last workout for a while just using the bar weight.

**big pete** · 29-12-2006, 08:17 PM

nice, using some band work, thatll target the lockout portion whichever way you look at it!

Ellis, do you have a thickbar where you train?

mant01 · 02-01-2007, 02:39 PM

My gym is total crap and don't have enough weight to try proper deadlifts. The only thing I can compare to is that I do shrugs with 260kg but to do that I have to fill the bar and then tie dumbells on the bar as well, lol. I do use lifting straps though.

shortstack · 08-01-2007, 08:10 PM

my personal best is 225 in competition clean no gear at 80kg bw

Ellis · 09-01-2007, 02:13 PM

still focusing on repping deadlift at the mo, last session 220x9, next one should get around 230x8, all done unequiped no belt or straps or suit.
Should hit 300x1 unequiped again in several weeks when I move back to singles.

Ellis · 09-01-2007, 02:15 PM

Pete, we do have a thick bar but its the over sized squat bar, 25kg bar. Have done some light deads with it before, you can sure tell the difference when griping it. Have you been deadlifting with a thick bar to help grip strength?

Nice!

Which is your 1st comp this year mate?

Ellis · 10-01-2007, 05:35 PM

well it was going to be the BPO british in bath in april but I'm prob going to give that one a miss and just train threw to June and do the Europeans in Wales.

dale_flex · 13-01-2007, 05:37 PM

To be honest only recently started doing deadlifts but have done 200kg for 6 reps. Not sure what 1 rep max woukld be as I don't fancy taking the risk to find out!

mant01 · 13-01-2007, 07:24 PM

I've just started deadlifts as well, only did it 3 times now but each time I've increased by 10kg so now I'm doing 200kg. Only did 2 reps and the second one I was shaking all over the place to get it up, lol. I can do 260kg with shrugs but I start them from off the floor so hopefully soon I'll be able to do that as well.

evil elvis · 03-02-2007, 08:55 PM
