new pr on dl

Yesterday in Strength & Conditioning at my school i did 350 on deadlift at 125.
I got 370 up but couldnt lock it out. Any tips or pointers to help me increase my deadlift and squat. I had got 245 on squat. I have to do everything with a belt since its mandatory in class or i would get kicked out.

Eat something.

Yea, I'd say gain a little bit of weight and that 370 will go up easy. For routine suggestion you should try the Bill Starr program.

i would gain weight but wrestling season in around the corner, so i cant go up past 125. I really just want to get our strength quotent at our school which is 2.93, and if i was 119 and did 357 id have a perfect 3

For a second I read "new pron dl" and just had to check this thread out.

Seriously though, you have pretty good strength for your weight. I think at this point you might tell us what your current strength training regimen is, so the more knowledgable people can give advice based on that.

i really dont have much of a set lifting regimen, i mainly do legs almost everyday along with clean. I need to throw bench in more, because as of now its my weakest lift

What exercises do you do? Just the powerlifting ones?

If all you need is 7 more pounds on your deadlift to hit your goals, you can do that by eating a better breakfast and turning the volume up on your music a little bit. No big deal.

i'd count the 370. if your not able to lockout but yet able to stand 100% vertical with the weight then its a legit rep IMO. whats your back routine like?

jag09 · 10-18-2008, 01:29 PM

i do:dl, sldl, squats, box squats, rows, bent over rows, power clean, and i think thats about it.
Our strength and conditioning coach is very strict when it comes to getting parallel, locking out, touching chest, etc. wheter its just for a pr or school record.
Ive really on been lifting for about a year now
Most of my friends of have been lifting for quite sometime say i shouldn't dead lift everyday. Is this true or are they just messing with me?

That is absolutely true. I wouldn't deadlift heavy more than once a week.

You can squat multiple times a week. However, deadlift is extremely taxing.

They are not messing with you!.You should not deadlift everyday thats insane god knows how much stronger you will get by deadlifting once a week!.

done deadlift or squat everyday. if you want to have 1 heavy squat/DL day and 2 speed work days for those lifts then thats fine.

Mitsuomi · 10-18-2008, 04:14 PM
