Deadlift issues
I suck at heavy deads . I squat more then I dead and my deads haven't gone up since I started doing them (2 months)
Anybody have a solid routine I could try .
Form and speed are great at anything up to 80% then from 85% up it is living hell.

Work up to it. Do sets of 2 until you reach your last set which you go heavier.

Have you watched videos of yourself doing deads ?
I did 10lbs over my 1RM with a spotter pushing me .
You ever see someone spot a dead lifter ?
You think no fucking way because I did in my 50’s .
Well a 18 year kid pulling 495 like I Pulled 135 loaded my bar over my 80% to more than my 1RM .
He stood in front of me like he was gonna yell in my face .
When I got set and started to pull he put a finger under my chin and lifted .
Keeping my head up my spine was straight.
Never wanted a spot again because I don’t like being touched but lifting heavy I hold the bar bait handed and lift my head up . The body will follow.
I read and studied for years . Everyone said to pretend to drive your heals into the ground .
Moral of my story is some people lift thru there head up and others lift by trying to push the ground away .
Good luck

What are your stats? Current squat and deadlift maxes? Are you just maxing every week? How are you currently trying to increase your deadlift? You need to be following a progression of some sort or you won't see much strength gain

I think the two exercises that improved my deads are virtical leg press on the smith machine with wide as I could go with toes out and standard leg press again wide and deep as I can go.
As far as routine I pyramid up to 90% max and back down to 50%

Dude Let me know if you find out a way to do this without hurting your back because no matter what I do I seem to hurt my back with deadlifts and I do them perfect I just don’t have the back for them I can do lightweight all day but I start to get too heavy and boom my lower back is done

I have been doing the 5x5 works for all 3 main lifts. I have a weight do 5x5 if i complete it i add 10lbs for dead and squats and 5 for bench. If you can't get the 5x5 you still keep the weight and do what you can. I added a ton of weight for all my lifts. Then after so long i switched to a 3x3. After that i take a break and dont have anything set. I just go with how i feel. If i feel strong i pyramid up to a 1 rep weight. If i feel weak i do volume. Hope this helps

I got with a trainer he told me to do 6x3
3x3 for Sumos to teach me to use my back and legs at the same time (he said Sumos help teach you the engagement of both groups which he believes is my down fall)
Then 3x3 at 90% adding 5lbs every time I complete the 3x3 without failure . Doing deadlifts twice a week.
Ima see how this goes.
