    I am almost 49, so there is no way I can do 3x a week, but... I did switch to an HIT style with higher rep AMRAP sets, and lower overall volume, and 2x a week. My back could handle that and I could still recover. I went all out on the AMRAP sets, but cut the extra working sets out. I added about 100lbs in.... I want to say 6 months? Not quite as fast, but still unprecedented for my age group.

  • @Waruto
    @Waruto 2 роки тому +3

    I used to do 3 days deadlift as well. But I cut my workout from 6 days to 5 days because I find myself having no time to do other things after work other than gym. I wanted to keep my squats and deadlift on separate days and because I decided to do only 5 days, I decided to cut 1 day of deadlift rather than squat. I think this overall still kept my deadlift strength pretty well. And I'm glad I decided to cut the deadlift day instead of the squat day as I believe squat benefits deadlift more than deadlift benefiting squat.

  • @untamed.adventures_fl3857
    @untamed.adventures_fl3857 Рік тому

    It’s not a back dominant movement it’s a posterior chain dominant movement. The reason you added so much in such little time, even if this is true, is because your a beginner, you added something that was high frequency and your body super compensated, this would certainly not be the case going from a 500 pound to a 600 pound deadlift. I would also hope you’re keeping up on your accessory work because this higher volume with a compound movement will eventually lead to injury, plateaus Accommodation, and overall poor performance.

  • @backy007

    I deadlift usually once a week, but my lower back is feeling wrong when I do too many reps. It's weird, but I feel much more comfortable doing "sets" of 1 rep than doing sets of 5-10 reps on deadlift. Even the max numbers do not match well on that - like I can do higher weight on one rep. So not sure if this would be applicable to me.

      Increase your volume from wherever you're currently at. Make sure you titrate it up slowly, Something like 25% increase per week if you're only doing 1x per week is reasonable. Ex. If you're currently doing 10 sets (1x per week frequency) go up to 12-13 sets week (3x frequency) then 15-16, etc. Keep adding till you feel you need a deload and that's probably a decent volume for you. Also keep your loads light like 68-75% 1RM for 3-6 reps with some 85-90% singles in the mix

    My deadlift is ahead of my squat
    (240>170), and I can't seem to progress on squats, I'm thinking about reducing volume/frequency on them and maybe focus more on deadlift, since that's my strongest movement, and I feel like I can progress more and faster there. So, basically, does it make sense to focus more on a dominant movement and leave a weak one behind?
