Deadlift frequency

rollinswollen36 · Oct 19, 2009

Hey guys, I have been doing deadlifts for about 3 years now. I used to do them every back workout, then I changed it to every other back workout. I have heard doing them once a month is a very effective way to do them. I was wondering yalls input, thanks.
Best Deads: 315x17, 405x10, 500x3

Yo man,

It's really tough to deadlift your heaviest weights every week. It's also pretty detrimental to your CNS. You can still deadlift every back workout, but I would incorporate wave loading.

I do deadlifts every back workout, always around 85-95% of my max.

Once a moth could be a bit on the low end. I'm the type of guy who cant deadlift more than once a week or I get burned out though Ive seen peopel DLing up to 3-4 times a week but periodization plays a big role in it. Along with that comes the lower back probs after heavy deads and squats. So if it was me I would go with once a week but you could use different loading protocols to achieve your goal.

I would dead every week but just make sure that you have some periodization incorporated into your level of intensity.
