from the floor! i rarely do rack deadlifts, everyonce in a while just for a change of pace. how much can i deadlift? ive hit 710 in the gym before but that was at the end of a back workout, i have never just went in the gym and try and pull my best.

b-boy · Aug 5, 2006

since ive switched to a higher volume workout i haven't done deadlifts but just a few times this year. i did deadlifts this past tuesday, and man i was freakin weak, i hit 585 for only 6 reps and my lower back muscle's are sore as shit for about 3 days later. just goes to show if you don't USE IT you LOOSE IT.

thanks bro. for tan i used about 3 coats of protan, then i used a very light coat of dream tan, because i have vitiligo (spots of no pigment).
im a very pale brotha anyways!

Bad ass back bro. I think that's one of the reasons my back came up more this year. I added deads from the floor back in to my routine. Gotta love them.

Sick....just sick. A big thick back just screams power in my opinion.

No bro nothing yet, i don't go see the brain doctor for couple more weeks, and my doctor said if nothing comes from his appointment then the only thing she know it that maybe i had some mislabled insulin or bad insulin (she doesn't like the fact that i use it, but understands my insane sport as she called it..LOL)

nice!

great back b-boy.

are you still doing dc workouts? what kind of rep range do you like for deads? i gotta agree with you, nothing makes my back grow as well as deads do

naw bro ive been doing more of a high volume training lately. rep range on deadlifts DC were 8-10, and now i try and get 12 with the volume workout, but i will admit its hard to do deadlifts (from the floor) with a higher volume workouts. DC workouts i did primarily rack deads.
