    Dead lift max

    With the 1 Billion threads about the bench press and chest exercises I thought one on dead lifts would be a nice change of pace.
    I highly recommend all IronMagLabs supplements!

    The only reason for so many bench threads, is that they all
    want to bench 8k like you -

    I suck at DL and Squat. I do them as much as I do everything else. They are the staple lifts in my routine. I can only DL about 315 and I only squat 275. I weight 180lbs. My BP is 245.

    If it was only one person, it was me...

    in... 2000?...
    My DL-ATPR = 590 @ 220-225ish

    (I was a sack of muscle back then,
    and I could only achieve that lift once,
    it was a freak strength day)

    Why the confusion? I thought it was impressive, that's all...

    To isolate I'd say hypers (maybe reverse hypers, but that seems more of a ham/glute exercise), but for compund movements, of course deadlifts, rack deads, and good mornings.

    If you're tall, then you have to use a lot of leg drive to get the bar off the floor.
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

    Maybe your lower back is stronger than the other parts. Do you usually train the posterior chain quite well? My back rarely gets sore at all, but when it does it's from heavy deads. Besides, if you do sumo style it's 90% legs, so your stance has a lot to do with it as well.

    I do squats and SLDL so I would say I train it pretty well. I don't think I do them correctly. I try to keep my back as vertical as possible. I bend down and lift. I totally feel it in my ass when I lift the weight. I think I need to make my back more horizontal. If you can find that web-site with the exercise animations I can explain it better. I do not do sumo style. Feet are shoulder width apart.
