Walkingtree Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 I was able to lift 435 on the deadlift today [5'7" 174 lbs]. Given that I have been getting back into lifting, and am "on a cut" I am super stoked about this lift. It took about 3-4 seconds to complete, a total grind, but I was able to get straight early and finish with my quads. Given the fact that I am 'far from home' I can feel confident that this is the biggest DL in a 50 mile radius, evar. Now to get my BP up to snuff.... That will be the focus of my next 6 weeker. TLDR: Conan step aside, I'mma gonna punch that camel for ya. 1 Quote Level 0 Were-Huorn Mastering runes, eating prunes and getting bruised in the temple of dues. Link to comment

Guest Posted March 13, 2014 Report Share Posted March 13, 2014 WOW! We're the same size, but I'm 120 lbs behind you... Quote Link to comment
Walkingtree Posted March 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2014 Thanks for the positive feedback! I remember a little while back being absolutely STAPLED by 365 and having to learn how to pull sumo just to finish it off. Now I can pull way more than that using conventional. I still like sumo lifts though as I find they're easier on my erectors which take a hammering from low bar squats. However I'm now working on front squats so I have a lot more qi in my lower back!
