Can we deadlift/bench press 3x a week?

[weijie200]

i workout 3x a week mainly wed,friday,sunday. i deadlift and bench press for every workout, is that ok, or isit overtraining? My lifts are not that high yet, deadlifting lesser then 200.

[7399martyn]

yes you can.

[Xuaxace]

you can do whatever you want


Though I would much rather squat 3x a week than do deadlifts 3 times a week.

[Gurung84]

Think its fine.

[Markoring]

Wait Wait you can squat 3 times a week I thought it was one of those exercises best done once a week I have no idea why I thought that tho

yeah you can squat 3x a week, most people say to only deadlift once a week

[SethFitzgerald1]

Yes but it is not something you should always do.

You can do that type of training for a month and then switch it up because it will be very hard on the body.

[wrestler271]

Yes you can, of course your body is going to hate deadlift x3 a week because its such a taxing movement, but your body will learn to cope with it as you progress

[agrier9]

yep

This.

[Markoring]

Oh why only the deadlifting once a week I feel like squatting is the harder movement here or am I completely off

If you do low reps and really high weight on deadlifts, they are easily the hardest on the body because they recruit almost every muscle group in the body.

besides, it tends to fry the lower back which makes doing other lifts like squats fairly hard.

Also, high frequency deadlifting doesn't seem to have the same ammount of benefits as squatting with high frequency.

Oh thank god I wasn't the only feeling it in my lower back I thought I was doing them wrong

30% you will die. But thats leaves an 80% chance you won't die.

Go ahead, I say.

[Zamininc]

As long as you're progressing (LINEARLY) there's no problem.

Linearly is not fast enough.

If you are deadlifting 3 times a week you need to be progressing EXPONENTIALLY.

[Zamininc]

linearly is not fast enough.

If you are deadlifting 3 times a week you need to be progressing exponentially.

we quadratic now

[Gilgamesh13]

You can do it every single day ...

[jake1224]

"lesser then 200"

Maybe spend less time in the gym and more time in english class.

strong math, an example of what the public school systems have done

[e14abdul]

Go ahead, I say.

strong math bro. it clearly leaves an 85 percent chance he won't die...
