make sure they are as they were when you removed them from your body. any alterations change the fetish if you get what i mean.

I'll do my best but you know you can't trust UPS.

Bblazer the joke of shitting in your pants is a little uncalled for, im asking for answers not smart ass comments! Anyway i am definately going to include deadlifting into my routine now. Since were shitting our pants and giggling like little school girls what are yalls deadlifting routines looking like?

I'm over 60 years old and I use warm up sets to get up to at least 5 working sets of 705 - 755 x 5.

Oh, and my pants comment was not directed at you, but at something funny someone else said. Relax.

And just so we're clear, you won't get very far chastising me, then the rest of us and then asking for help.

But I digress.....

Read Rippetoe, Kraemer, Tate, and Wendler. They have a few things to say on this whole deadlifting subject. That should get you started.

10-4. understand the pants no harm done. and im not chastising anyone. i just wanted opinions and answers to my ? so i should do low reps at high weight, judging by your sets. its been years since ive done a legit deadlift routine.

Deadlifts should usually be kept 5 reps and under for working sets. Like he said, warmup to a working set or 2 of 5. So if your max deadlift was 405 it could look like this:

Warmup
1x5x135
1x5x225
1x3x315

Working set
1x5x355

Then if you felt good you could do another working set, then a back off set or 2 at a lighter weight. Pretty damn simple.

its funny, i was reading an all natural bbing magazine on the treadmill today and they contradicted everything we on this forum and many others post. they said avoid singles, doubles, and triples and to stay in the 6 to 10 range. they also said 3 meals a day is more than enough and the 5 to 6 meals a day thing was a myth. i found it very strange.

haha

also, today my neighbor was talking to me about lifting and how he wants to get started, and his dad works in construction. His dad said that he used to lift, and that deadlifts have really helped him in construction as far as lifting heavy ass bricks all the time- just an example of a real life benefit from the deadlift!

no, im serious. it was the magazine for the all natural crowd. dudes were really, really ripped and looked great but they werent mass monsters at all. that dude from big brother was in the magazine, hes a natural pro. these guys werent anything to laugh at all. i was impressed.

Interesting. But I'm no bodybuilder. I'm going for strength first, size second. I think that a lot of times those magazines are bullshit though, they don't practice what they preach. It's like the doctor exposing the evils of squats to a fellow gym member in between sets of squats.
