Good Lift?!?

[Shades McCool]

I was just wonder what you guys would think would be a really good deadlift for someone that weighs about 195lbs? I have been deadlift for about a month and a half now. I have been using my bigger faster stronger method.

What is a good number to shoot for? Just curious to see what you guys would think.

Well, I would say that you and only you could determine that, given that you know your stats, lifts, strenghts, weaknesses, etc etc etc.

Ok well I am 6' 195lbs right now. I pulled 405 for three on my last set on Thursday. I am just wondering that weight you guys think a natural 195lber would top out at? Thats all.

Some of the "experts" claim that 300/400/500 are great targets for a natural lifter. (bench/squat/dead)

that's hard to say, because as your numbers go up so will your weight, Bfold deadlifted 703 a while ago and he's natural

That's the most depressing thing I've read all day.

I can't do any of those. However, I am considered quite strong by several African pygmie tribes.

More than you deadlifted yesterday.

like spatts said, are you happy with your progression? do you feel you are giving it your all? if you can answer yes then In would say you should be pleased. But you will always want more...

LOL. seriously though, they're TARGETS, not REQUIREMENTS. subtle difference. see? so stop crying girly-man. j/k

It just depends on your goals really. and I wouldn't put stock in those 3/4/5 ways of thinking....I beat all those easily in hs.
