Okay, I just threw out my back listening to that.

Yesterday was my second time to dead lift. My 4th set, i did 225x6. I weigh 195, so I thinks thats pretty pathetic.

Ditto...I can believe a few of these numbers here and there, but it seems everyone on this board is crazy strong and I don't believe EVERYONE is being honest.

**thompsbj** · 04-08-2004, 07:19 PM

I was getting at the same thing, I was just trying to hide my doubt.

Ok, I don't have a video but how about a link to the results page of the federation that I lifted it in, will that do?

Look for Michael Allgeier in the 148 class. It says 501.25 actual, which is correct for that meet (and hopefully close enough to make 505 believeable). I'm 5'10" and the guy I lost to in the open was only 5'3"!

I did 622 last saturday at a meet @172

**Ironmike2004** · 04-09-2004, 06:49 AM

a year earlier I did 611 at 165 in the reason my deadlift hasnt gone up that much is cuz I broke my leg so I i'm just now coming back. I totaled 1533 at the meet last year and 1620 at 172 this year.

www.Seguinfitness.com is the link with all the records.

Well no kidding...the guy only had to push/pull the weight just a couple inches. Those really short guys have a huge advantage.

Box deads, box squats and good mornings. You can also work your flexors and abs to help greatly. You don't need to max alot...in fact, you really don't need to deadlift every week either. So long as you do it every coupld of weeks to keep form and work on GMs and box squats, you can build a deadlift without really doing them much.

**lilyoungster** · 04-13-2004, 06:35 PM

box deads? not sure what you are talkin about... GM's... umm... i never did this be4..... i know you keep the weight on ur back and lean forward.... about until you even with the floor... (parallel)..... i know what box squat is... what weight should i use for GM's... i am scare of fallin forward... lol... thanks...

I know what you mean, I don't even max anymore and I've moved to more of a bodybuilding style work out. I can tell my chest is so much more improved in stength from when I was in HS, and the bench was my worst lift then. I figure with some good hard training I'd explode with my legs, because my lower body lifts were where I excelled.

On another note, I'm also a judge with the Texas HS PL Assoc, and at a regional meet I watched a 181 pull 690. He attempted 710 but threw his butt up and lost form. All in all he had a good meet and still had state to go.

I did the small platform and had a 123 pull 455. It was super lift, but you could tell he didn't have much left.

**JakeLyfts17** · 01-12-2018, 07:32 PM

At the moment I weigh 155lbs and can pull 525 on a texas deadlift bar anf on a regular bar i have pulled 500 exactly. This is 3.22 times my bw. I believe at only being 17 years old and only to have lifted for about a year and 4 months that this is pretty amazing. I am going to be competing in powerlifting meets soon.

**scotpak1979** · 01-13-2018, 12:12 AM

Congrats but you have just replied to 14 year old thread. I guess thats no big deal.

The problem with this 3x bodyweight DL is that is was fairly easy when I was in the 75 to 85kg range. Now that Im 92kg (203lbs) it seems alot harder. (Getting 608lbs when pb is 585).

**Screwtape** · 01-13-2018, 12:30 PM

725 @ 225.

**melDorado** · 01-13-2018, 12:52 PM

If i ever do this ill have broken the uk record in my fed and then some. 217.5kg
Im not even at 2.5 yet but i plan to pull 4 plates this summer which will be

Edit why do people do this?

**danlsann** · 01-13-2018, 02:04 PM

**PhantomMaxx** · 01-13-2018, 02:19 PM

I just realized to is an old thread brought back to life. I can do 3x my body weight and I'm an old dude @50.

**Siggy66** · 01-14-2018, 02:13 PM

**Mjf26** · 01-15-2018, 12:15 PM

Unfortunately not myself haha, 140kg is my max, weighing 87kg, but squat is my downfall! 100kg max
