How many Deadlifts per week for you?

[H_T_]

it can take weeks to recover from a DL workout.

Mine are also disproportionately strong so I've backed off on them a bit. With my revised plan I'm doing speed once a week, or 10 singles w/ 10sec. rest @ 60-70%, and then every other week or possibly 3, depending.

Once a week, every Wed.

twice for this newbie

I second that

Once a week is plenty for me. I do 5x5 one week, 3x5 and 3x3 the next week, 3x5 and 3x1 the next, and 5x5 from 18" rack the next - then rinse and repeat

Thanks BiggT!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been deadlifting every monday for a few weeks now. I was pulling twice a week, mon/fri, but I couldn't increase the lift as much. Pushing 5lbs a week for as long as I can.

Deads are my favorite excercise! Don't know what I'd do without 'em!!!! Only once a week though. Gotta let youself recover!

i have to give my deadlift approach a complete revamp methinks. mine is not going anywhere at the moment. i presently deadlift just once per week. so thats going to change soon

me too.....when i first started them, i had DOMS bad in lower back.....now i'm adjusted and i feel pumped up like a mofo the next day.....i'm gonna start doing wed and sat deads for 3-4 weeks and see how it feels.....i don't think it'll be bad, maybe put you in overreaching.....but then a deload will take care of that....
