working on a new routine

[Andalite]

Out of curiosity, what do you guys lift for deads and what are your 1RMs? If that doesn't make sense, i mean something like: I hit 285x9, and my 1RM is 355.

Just so you know, this is not a good indicator of what your possible 1RM is. It could put you in a ball park range of something but it is NOT accurate at all in terms of it being an absolute value.

Having said that, I train between 415-475 and my 1RM is 500 at the moment.

I am VERY aware that this is not always an accurate indicator. I am just curious what some guys have to say for this. I am hoping for somewhere between 335-365, but 315 was my original goal and if i get in the 3 plate club i'll be more than satisfied.

Comments: If you would have told me i could deadlift 315 without any problems 2 months ago, i would tell you that you were fucking insane. It felt amazing lifting 355 today. When i locked out the bar, i grunted SO LOUD that the entire gym turned and looked at me in awe. Some were surprised i lifted it while others had a look of "what an asshole" on their face. Regardless, they can go fuck themselves because it was fucking awesome. I honestly think i might have been able to hit 365 if i did it before 355, but i wanted to be more conservative because if i missed 365, 355 woulda been that much harder. Pullthroughs were good- still getting the looks and today i got a question with a very derogative connotation on it. W/e though i love pullthroughs haha. Curls were ok- my right arm kinda cheats on more reps and my left arm barely has to cheat. It's kind of catching up though i guess.


Bench Press this Sunday. It will be the first time in at least 4-5 months (hell, maybe ever now that i think about it) that i bench fresh meaning that before, i deadlifted before benching and in 5/3/1, bench day was right after deadlift day.

nice work on the deads, hopefully i can dead as much as you when i get further into my recovery training.

Nothing beats pulling more weight off than ground than you ever thought you could.

Gladiator, I vaguely remember you posting a vid of you pulling 5 plates with shitty form but still 5 plates. Was this you?

AWESOME! AWESOME! FUCK YEAH!!!!! Great work jdid! Didn't that just feel great getting a 1 rm on deads? You had almost the same progression as me ie, I hit 3 pr's:
405x1
425x1
445x1
then 455 wouldn't even budge hahaha!

I guarantee if you jumped right to 365 you would get it right off, cause I felt the same with 455 I was just so tired lol! Fuck if you get a video camera you and em heals up you guys could have an awesome comp!!!! You are where I was at on 1 rm for deads in December I think I was right around 170 too at the time. Damn em had it coming hahahah!

miked8c: just to answer for gladiator he pulled 475x5 on cycle and 495x1 a while back, but now he's off cycle and his form is much better he says so those are his current lifts.
