Dead lift ROM
I just finished week #2 of the "Coan/Phillipi 10 week Deadlift Routine" and decided to work on the "pull" part of the DL which is my weak point.
I stood on a couple of plates which gave me an extra 2" of ROM. I did this for all the dead lifts, including the heavy double and the speed deads.
Felt good man.

i'm new to deadlifting.. wondering if you can gimme some advice on a routine..
i've only done them at home with 110lbs (all the weights i have). this monday i tried "heavy" weights for the first time. racked up 2 45's on each side (225lbs) at first, but it took me alot of effort just for the first rep. i wasn't gruntin or nothin like that though lol.. so i dropped it to 185 and did a set of that for 8 reps before i stopped cause my hamstring felt pulled.
what would be a good routine for a beginner? in terms of weight, sets, and rep..

Deficit deads helped me go from 495 to 525, but now my lockout is weak sauce.

I haven't attempted a max pull. I started this 10 week program with a goal weight of 405, Several weeks ago I tried to pull 365 and couldn't get it off the ground.
Since then, after I started DL'ing regularly, I did 355 for 4 reps and believe I could have gone more although I didn't try.

Speaking of SLDL -- I still do not know the "proper" form. I have seen some videos / write-ups where you round your back and look down, which is what I have been doing. I stand on a 5" platform for this.
There is also the RDL -- where your back is arched and you look up, and you only descend until you feel the pull in your hamstrings.

I also SLDL from a platform, it feels like I can't mess up my form that way. I also find it easier to keep my form when I go shoeless when regular DLing. The smaller area compared to shoes will keep you from swaying forward or backwards. Currently pulling 425 x 2

there are so many
straight back stiff-leg DL
straight back STRAIGHT-leg DL
non-straight back straight-leg DL
i personally would never do a rounded back DL  I don't do completely straight back or knees either. just rigid, nothing locked out and nothing relaxed. the thought of either extreme makes me cringe.
