max deadlifting?

[tofue]

What do you guys think about going in the gym and doing max deadlifts? Do you think they are a good idea or should we be aiming for a specific number of reps?

I’m getting annoyed at the gym watching some of these younger dudes who pack on over 400 pounds and do horrible form. One of them told me it still makes them stronger anyway

if you're doing deadlifts, go with 5-6 reps per set and go down to 2 reps thats a max

when i see that happen it makes me cringe. i am well aware of the damage they are doing to their discs cause i used to be one of those reckless gorillas but my form was actually good.

Zero issue - but it must be good form

There is no reason to max out at training, especially with bad form

I don't do heavy deadlifts anymore. For me it was the shoulder that caused me to stop.

You should not put too much pressure on your body.....
