Looks very nice. I was able to do 375x3 twice just yesterday, but neither set looked as smooth as your deadlift. Your form and pace sets the standard for deadlift form at that weight.

Thanks, I started doing 1x5 every other Saturday starting with 150kg (330Lb) on March 20th, taking a 5kg (11Lb) jump each session. So far no sign of trouble at all, and I'm sure I'll get at least to 185kg (407Lb) x5 before things start getting difficult. After that, we'll have to see...

Hey charles, mayve I could get your oppinion on my DLing progression, I have asked mark and he thinks I should begin doing rack pulls and Halting DL's. I'm doing Texas method programming...

My last 6 weeks of DLing were as follows :

W1 - 451 x5

W2 - 456 x 5

W3 - 461 x 3 (did these on intensity day, instead of volume for laziness issues, failed because of fatigue I think. Took the following week off due to wanting to revert back to DLing on Volume day...)

W5 - 461 x 5 (had to take a mins rest in between reps 4 + 5 because it was soo hard, I marked this as a fail)

Missed week 6 - did some back extensions instead.

Week 7 - 461 x 5 this time they went up easier, form wasnt great, the whole bar resting on the knees thing. Still took good 30secs between reps 4+5

MY DL has been going up 10lbs per week until I got to about 440lbs, then I made 5lb jumps because the weight was getting heavy for me. This is the first time i've had problems, would you think a reset would be beneficial? Or just do what Rip's saying? Thanks, and for the record I value Rips oppinion, its just nice to get a second look.

My Stats, 6'1, 230lbs @23%BF.

Thanks for the time Charles.

I think I'd back off a tad and start pulling once every other week

Pulling bumpers on a platform is so much more fun.
