May deadlift max is 320 I don't want to do less than 3 reps. Other than that have at it.

Thanks in advance.

The one I use has been helping me break PRs every workout. I usually do it like this:
x10
x10
x8
x6
x4
x2-3
 
i change it up about every 12 weeks, but right now i've been doing strip sets from my max (not all out max) down,it looks like this:
warm up -whatever it takes
455x3
405x5
315x8
225x12
repeat 3 times, 2 if i'm pressed for time or if i'm doing alot more back work.
lately i've been sticking to pretty heavy lifts on just the core three (dead/squat/bench). with two or three supporting evercises.
 
i would do my warmup sets...around 4 or 5 of them. at first i would do 3 or 4 sets of 8 reps making sure the form is good. once you feel you got the form down i would do the warmups and then do 2-3 sets of 5 reps. i wouldn't increase the weight until i could get all 5 reps on my heaviest set. then i would increase the weight.

you do that with no rest in between sets???
i would be extrememly careful your form HAS to suffer when pulling that many reps after another

rocco i foy u are new to pulling or you havent pulled in a long time just pull that in itself will allow you to make progress in the lift..once a serious plateau is hit then you can pull out some neat tricks/routines..

till ten pull hard work the glutes/hams and lats
 
I'm just getting back into pulling.

I guess I really wasn't looking for any tricks. I just wanted to know how many sets and how many reps per set to do .

should have clairfied-
i do rest between sets- fully. and i stop ANYTIME my form is not on. i had a bad back injury in 2002,since then if my form isnt perfect, i feel it the next couple of days. so yeah- rest between sets, keep a tight form, quit if you break form. right on BB for calling that.

I agree with tman, get your form down then go with 3-4 sets of 5 reps. After you complete all sets with the set weight, move up the next week. This is what i've been doing. 3 months ago I couldn't pull 385, I just got 405 x 5 the other day, seems to be working.
