This is the Coan-Phillipi cycle I was talking about: Tsampa.org: Coan-Phillipi 10 Week Deadlift Routine

Its a deadlift 1x/week program but since I would be using it as a specialisation routine I might consider running it 2-3x/week for a 3 week mesocycle then reducing it to 1x/week for another 3 week mesocycle, effectively giving myself a deload.

hm maybe you can do that, but it's a shitload of work, especially the speed work.

Maybe you can do the Ortmayer deadlift routine. Take a look at it.

I've done a Smolov Jr deadlift program, I fear not the volume.

(Well actually I do, but I survived last time :p)

Also, D/L'd the Ortmayer program and will look into it, it has scary +8 reps schemes though. :bitenails:

300kg deadlift. It's so out of my league that it would be really inspiring to be an spectator. I'm with you freako.

Deadlifts (no belt)
5 x 3 x 160kg
Raw, fast and easy.

Squats (no belt)
Worked up to an ugly 180kg single. Fell forward a bit when I came out of the whole and strained my left quad a little too. I'm a bit disappointed because 170kg was easy.

Looked very easy for you. I have the same problem benting forward, which sucks ans I don't know how to solve.

300kg deads maybe be possible, but even If you won't achieve that, after one year of specialization you will have at least a 270-280kg deadlift, which is great!

incase u needed any more motivation

quote from the 12-11-2008
Don't we all... 300kg on the deads I mean :xmascrunk:

When I can get 2 x bw for bench, 2.5 x bw for squats and 3 x bw for deads I'll be a very happy camper. At current bw (85kg) that's 170/212.5/255... might be a little while longer I think. :xmaseek3ugh:

Way to remind me how much weight I've gained and how much my lifts haven't improved. :p

Adjusted goals would be: 195kg bench, 240kg squat, 280kg deadlift... or I could lose some weight.
