If you deadlift 3+ plates, your a God at your gym

True story


Unless you go to a legit hardcore one.

[PerFit]

this is true.

ppl are like WTF when you put a 3rd plate on. the 4th and 5th and fun times.

[Kapetan]

I agree, most I've seen someone deadlifting is 2 plates.
But I go to **** gym

[EnforcerOTF]

Hit my PR of 3 plates today. After starting to do deads just 4 weeks ago and not being able to get 185 up.

Pumped for my summer numbers.

[Lupes Return]

Maybe in the real world but college gyms have some beasts.

[LowestScum]

I'm in the latter camp. 5 plates. Nobody mirin'. No estats.

[BIGPHAGGOTT]

is this real life?

lol it's kind of true I literally get bert stared by people when I do 405, brb do I even lift?

My uni gym I used to go to had some huge guys there, but it was crowded a lot of times and I didn't get good vibes there.

[slameeeeedR32]

at my community college u got fukers repping 405 like it aint no thang lol

[radkeyo]

Agree. 3 plate dead here. I rarely see people deadlift at my gym, and then they do it's always with like 1plate, lol.

Then again my gym is packed with curlbros.

[madeinoregon]

i only deadlift 2 (only been lifting for 2 months) and ppl stare at me. then again everyone there just curls or does machines...

[EvanAlmighty]

yeah i rep 3 plates for reps and 385 for 1

haven't seen anyone deadlift, or squat more than me, but ppl putting up 2 plate bench like its nothing fml lol

tips on breaking a deadlift plateau n finally reaching 4 plates?

[Cone1]

not when you lift at a powerlifting gym. brb pulling 3+ plates then watching the guy after me pull 5+

[GetHugeBrah]

The new resolution *******s go crayyyyyyyyy over 3+ plates haha.

[TreyTrey]

haven't seen someone DL over 3 plates in my gym for probably close to 5 or 6 months

sad... lol

tha fark...you look swole ass armed up in yo avi. Look like you could lift moar.

I have considered trying 4 plates for squat and deads but dun wanna risk injury, 3 plates is usually at peak weight I use atm usually for 3-5 reps.

brb dl'n in the rack next to some guy 2x my size and hes only doing 135 and its a mix of stiff legged and regular deads..he just doesn't actually let the plates touch the ground lol. Looks painful.

[yellowjacket415]

what makes you have a strong deadlift?? I DL 305 3 times for 3 sets but all my other lifts are complete sht. bench 185x5 squat 205x5 military press 105lbs x 5

[Mr_OG]

Is this thrad real life!?!

I started deadlifts 2 weeks ago for the first time in my life (4 years lifting).

Last week, got up to 355 lbs and squeezed it out (back was just a lil rounded, so this random guy who worked in with me stated).

Ppl mirin the fcuk OUT. Felt good. Can't believe this thread is srs real life, srs.

[Mac_xX]

315 looks like a lot to people that don't DL but it really isn't hard to achieve.

[badhairday]

no

the people deadlifting in the first place are 135-160lbers
the people putting up 3 plates are 155-160lbers

the people with 17" arms are generally in the machines room
true story at any gym

[BennyLuce]

You need to find a new gym if 3 pps is extremely impressive to people.

I had a serious lower back injury in high school and was so afraid to try squats/deads. Was my new years resolution, but I started mid-Jan with near pathetic numbers (185 deadlift, 135 squat), now I can (as of today) get 315 dead, 225 squat for 5. I know it's laughable but I'm only 3-4 weeks in. I can bench 330lbs though haha

[arn710]

I don't even see anyone at my gym deadlift

[getout87]

hardly ever see anyone doing deads at my gym, much less with somewhat proper form. i repped 295x5 today and felt like everyone was staring when i finally was able to stand up. *SoClose* to 315

[Sergis]

oly training in sports school - lol no
