My current deadlift program (opinions?)

[BigRonWannabee]

Rocco me and you have our dead and bench numbers criss crossed. I saw you got 605x2 on bench and your working on 405 for deads. Ill be damned if I dont have the same numbers on the lifts only reversed.

I got my way up to 405 dead by pulling deads every week rain or shine. Then Id pull stifflegged deads and squat same week. If it works, it works.

Thanks PB. THe gym that sponsers me has one of those. I'll try to spend some time on it.

2 sets of 50reps 2xw. slowly bring it up. this may help w/your back pain as well. strengthening the abs adds more support for the lumbar which in turn will allow more posterior core work. what does this mean? a bigger dead lift.

SOunds good. Thanks PB

Week 1: 10x5 (repsxsets)
Week 2: 9x5
8x5
7x5
6x5
5x5
4x5
3x5
2x5
One week off
Meet pull

THis week will be the 5x5 with 315 belted. DO you guys think that at this point I should cut the volume back or wait another week or two or should I just shoot for the 5 sets? PB?

stick to the prtogram and see how it pans out.

how big a jumps are you taking ea week?

 

[roccodart440]

how big a jumps are you taking ea week?

So far it has gone like this:

5 sets of

unbelted
135x10
185x9
205x8
225x7
275x6

belted
Today 10/19/2006 315x5 unknown sets
365x4
385x3
405x2 which would be a lifetime PR

at that point I wll have one or two weeks of training left and I'm thinking atsome point I should be putting my suit on. When should I get into my suit? How far out of the meet? ALso from my last wek uof doubles should I just stick to doubles at that point like you would with bench?

 

[Skarhead1]

I think you at least have to be putting on the bottom half of your suit at some point soon

Well maybe i'll get into my suit after I pull the 405x2. I'd realy like to hit 405 raw.

odd jumps. anyway...... wear your suit at least 4 weeks. the last 2 weeks should be singles.

nah..easy to load! LOL


anyway...... wear your suit at least 4 weeks.
Then next week is my last week raw


the last 2 weeks should be singles.
really? I thought singles will burn you out too soon? Never heard of singles in pre-meet training. But you pull more than me so I WILL try it.

Check out my training log. I think you'll be surprised what you find.
