I'm gonna start working on dead lifts now. That 500+ deadlift got me miring'
Do you ever do the sumo style deadlift? I guess it allows you to lift the bar higher or summat. Idk, I see a lot of people using that form though. Sumo style.

That 270kg is almost 596 pounds i think ?
I never really tried sumo mate , probably because it is sort of frowned upon in some circles i believe ?
Very impressive mate, I have (and have always had) a weird thing where my thighs and hamstrings are smaller than my calves. Genetics I think, Dad was a sprinter so I was a sprinter. I have always had huge calves and small upper legs, limits my deadlift massively.
My working weight for reps has been stuck at 150kgs for a long time, can't seem to get it up. My working weight with squats keeps going up though, don't know what I'm doing wrong, maybe I need to isolate my lower back to bring the weight up later.

I just hit 270kg/ 596 pounds , what i been doing is 80-90% of my max weight for sets of 3 reps ...so after warm up sets i hit 240kg x3 /250kg x3 /260kg x3 , i would do that or more reps if i could on that weight for 3 weeks then have a single single rep max day on the fourth week ....its seems to have worked for me as in 14 months I went from 170kg to 270kg on my dead lift but TBF I packed in all my boxing/running/cardio to do it , just took up this powerlifting as getting punched in the head at age 41 ent as much fun as when i was in me 20s lol
