You never really go over 310/315 on the pull?

There's not a lot of need to at the moment. I'd rather save it for a competition. It's very easy to burn out by attempting 1RM deadlifts too often, leaving you unable to train at high enough percentages while you try and recover.

I think there's a lot to be said for hardening your back through frequent, sub-maximal deadlifting. All three of my heavy deadlifts this week were very dynamic and powerful and it gives me the chance to not only get some quality training in, but also to rehearse the movement with real weights.

I know some guys only deadlift once a week or once every ten days, but I don't think this is enough to truly master the lift.

What % of your max roughly are 310-15?

300-315 represents 91-92.5% of my current 1RM. For me, training this percentage range for 1-2 sets of 1 rep is highly effective and, I believe, no coincidence:

Prilepin’s Chart

Percent Reps/sets Optimal Total range
55–65 3–6 24 18–30
70–80 3–6 18 12–24
80–90 2–4 15 10–20
90+ 1–2 4 10

Might give that a bash. I seem to be able to pull 280-290 no problem, but anything over 300 goes to s**t!

Interesting you use Prilipen's chart. I know a few lifters who designed their own routines using the numbers with good success.

Training's looking very solid.
