Just Started Deadlifting..

well yea anyways i just REALLY started deadlifting 1 week ago for the first time as a actual lifting routine and my max went from 225 to 295 something like that and i want to know how can i improve it i love the feeling pulling the plates from the floor makes you feel like a savage and im 16 190 and i want to get way more then 295 up is 295 good for basically almost 2 weeks of deadlifting? I dont do isolation much since this excercise in my routine i do dips and chins and pulls and im thinking if i can lift more plates off the floor i will get bigger just my assumtion what do you guys think

If you want to get your deadlift up, do more deadlifts. Pull once a week, with a 295 pull your DL should increase quickly.

Also, end your sentences.

Don’t ever stop deadlifting full stop.

Increase your muscle mass. The bigger your muscles, the greater your strength. Eat more and avoid starting sentences with “well yeah anyways.”

I think this is a first. Increasing a lift by 70lbs in 2 weeks and still asking online how to improve. Maybe you should be telling us how to improve our deadlifts

Make Deadlifts a thigh dominant movement.

In other words drop your butt before lifting and keep your torso more upright, start the movement by driving through your heels.

At first your weight will come down considerably but in the long run you’ll be seeing the positive results.

Also, triple extend when you aren’t lifting to maxes. At the top of the lift try to get up on your toes and also shrug the bar higher. This will take time to master but again the long run resluts will speak for themselves.

What ?!

Learning to type will help your dead lift the most.

Seriously, this is an online forum, but I think we can all agree MLA format is the way to go.

It’s pretty simple. Keep adding weight to the bar until you can’t consistently for a couple weeks, then change it up. You are new to deadlifting, so deadlift.

LOL

A big part of increasing your deadlift will come down to knowing how to ignore bad advice. Luckily you’ve the chance to get some practice in here…

Start ignoring… NOW

Are we to understand from your post that your routine consists of dips, chins and deadlifts? You might consider a few other lifts to go along with that…just off the top of my head…squats, bench…this is the powerlifting forum after all.

yea thats exactly what i do gone heavy my brother forced me into doing the 25 method more or less to say and
quit doing any isolation excercises i might start rows yea update btw i really didnt go up on my max but my brother went 315 the other week i couldnt do it cause i fucked my grip up well lost it cause i was doing farmers walk and suit case deadlifts.

Uh right now i cant lift cause i snapped at my teacher for saying sexual harrasment on me when i was just flirtiing with a girl so i just punched a wall and kicked on and i broke my toe yea…

Wow. I can guarantee that this guy has either never deadlifted, or is just a retard.

OP, it’s important at this stage (especially after hitting 295 lbs so soon) that you be a bit ambitious about the weights you use, and really push yourself to get to your new max reps. You should continue to see steady improvement.

Ignore this guy for certain, and remember foremost that the deadlift is not exclusively a legs or back movement, it is an extension of your posterior chain. I think he means to use consistent form on all of your lifts, but if you’ve made such good progress so far, then you probably know better than he does.

I’m just wondering if you understand what you wrote.

Im wondering who is the bigger troll in this thread. The OP or White.death? My vote goes to white.death.

Here’s a quote from one of his other threads that made me chuckle:

“I just don’t think that program is suited for a 9 year experienced powerlifter, with the scars on his shin to prove it.”

LOL
