Deadlift Plan

[dirtpool]

more upper back crap-bent rows, old fashioned t-bars, weighted chins and pull ups

more front squats-deep, raw, sets of 1-5

alternate RDLS with conventional deadlifts, maybe even sumo deadlifts (once a week)

more reps on raw low box squats

hit abs like a mother ****er

what do you guys think?

I think you need to deadlift more. I don't see the point in alternating RDLs with conventional deadlifts and sumo deadlifts. Do you pull conventional or sumo? Whichever it happens to be, do that lift every week. All that other stuff does help, but deadlifting increases your deadlift.

I've been deadlifting every week for 2 years, I pull conventional...my current meet pr is 606

How are you doing it? Like a westside conjugate type lifting where you go for 1-3 rep max or do you go for more of a volume sequence?

the majority of the time I was doing 10wk periodization cycles where I'd work up to heavy triples and doubles, followed by rack pulls, upper back, and abs

Gotcha. Well, my deadlift is around where yours is, so take what I say with a grain of salt. All I can offer is what we do, and it has led to constant progression for all of our lifters. We do a sheiko-based system with lots of volume on Tuesdays, and on Fridays we do speed pulls from a deficit against bands. This has produced some impressive deadlifts, including a 165/181 lifter pulling 700 in a meet.

Looks freaking identical to what I've been doing! Great minds and all that...

Focus on assistance work is what boosted my deadlift a lot. It just works so much better for me than doing straight deads all the time. Same seems to go for every big lift. My clean and press moved up like a snail for years, and I did a 20lb PR after focusing on dumbbell presses for a few weeks. My current deadlift plan is basically the same as the OPs. I've seen people get good boosts in their conventional numbers after adding in sumo work. I haven't done that yet, but it is the next step.

Front squats sound like a decent idea. I'd say where you are at requires the fine tuning. Perhaps less dead lifting and more assistance work focusing on specific weakness in your movement.
