How often do you Deadlift?

[Leatherface]

How often do you guys and gals deadlift?

 

[Witchblade]

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

 

[NordicNacho]

never needs to change

 

[soxmuscle]

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.

 

[AKIRA]

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

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

 

[Witchblade]

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]

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]

Deadlifts from the ground - once per week.

 

[goob]

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]

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

[Billie7]

I usually do them once a week, but for the next few weeks going to do them twice a week....Trying to improve my max!

 

[assassin]

usually once a week ...

 

[danny81]

before i was injured i did them 1-2 times a week an 1 leg RDL 1-2 times a week

 

[kinkery]

52 times a year (once a week)

 

[Duncans Donuts]

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]

where you doing them properly?

 

[Yanick]

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]

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

 

[JerseyDevil]

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]

once a week

 

[katt]

Once a week on leg day

 

[Bakerboy]

twice

 

[SAMIAM]

3x/wk - I use a fullbody w/o M,W,and F...

 

[Duncans Donuts]

where you doing them properly?

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]

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

 

[CowPimp]

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]

Some variation 3x a week.

 

[Leatherface]

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
