How often do you Deadlift?

How often do you guys and gals deadlift?

Witchblade · 05-05-2007, 03:00 PM

Twice a week currently. If you include all variations, 4+ times a week.

NordicNacho · 05-05-2007, 03:06 PM

never

needs to change

soxmuscle · 05-05-2007, 04:32 PM

I'll always deadlift (either romanian, sldl, or regular) on leg days, occassionally performing them on back days if I need a change of pace.

So atleast once per week.

What does that mean? You mean 2x in 7 days? Or even 4x in 7 days?!

Witchblade · 05-05-2007, 06:59 PM

Yep, I'm doing an upper/lower 4 times a week program. So that's 2 leg days. Every leg day I do 2 deadlift variations, usually 1-leg-RDLs and conventional deadlifts.

fufu · 05-05-2007, 07:12 PM

When I used to deadlift I did it about once or twice every 2 weeks. Maybe less.

That is deadlifts from the ground.

I would do RDL's usually once a week.

JonnyStead · 05-07-2007, 04:04 AM

Deadlifts from the ground - once per week.

goob · 05-07-2007, 07:11 AM

Used to do it once a week on pull day, but have given it up because of all the running and HIIT that also goes into my 6 day program.

Uthinkso · 05-07-2007, 07:50 AM

I do deadlifts on leg day which occurs once a weak. Only way I do them is from the ground.

Duncans Donuts · 05-07-2007, 03:24 PM

I stopped doing them because I almost destroyed my spine doing them a year ago, but I'm looking to get back into them.

danny81 · 05-07-2007, 03:35 PM

where you doing them properly?

Yanick · 05-07-2007, 05:22 PM

I do convo deads from the floor once a week as a strength movement. I do variations of deads (Bilateral and unilateral RDL's) as secondary exercises 2x/week.

crazy_enough · 05-07-2007, 06:09 PM

romanian or conventional: every back w/o
sldl's every leg workout...so 2 x week I guess.

JerseyDevil · 05-07-2007, 06:32 PM

Usually once a week, but I will take breaks time to time. Will mix conventional deads, rack pulls, SLDL's, and recently trap bar deads.

Rubes · 05-07-2007, 06:37 PM

once a week

katt · 05-07-2007, 06:40 PM

Once a week on leg day

Yes, I was doing them properly. Once you get to a point of repping 500+ pounds for repetitions, the weakest link in your "kinetic" chain will be a likely victim of too much stress and fail at some point, despite form.

mk_iron · 05-08-2007, 08:58 PM

at the very least once a week, mostly mixed with romanian, sldl and from the floor. rack dead's for my back

**CowPimp** · 05-08-2007, 09:27 PM

I probably do some variation of a deadlift (This includes stiff-legged variations) 1-3 times per week depending on the program I am currently involved in.

vortrit · 05-08-2007, 09:32 PM

Some variation 3x a week.

Leatherface · 05-09-2007, 07:11 AM

How on earth are some of you guys able to deadlift 3x a week? I am still tired after doing them ONCE a week.

I'm getting old
