Deadlift Deficit + ATG Squat

Training for the big 500 pound deadlift I will attempt again in August.

Deficit deadlifts increase the difficulty of the lift by increasing the range of motion.

Saw your vid through the CL FB page. Great lifts. So I'm guessing you rotate these Deficit & ATG lifts with Lesser ROM Max Effort lifts? If so how long are the cycles? I like the idea of doing that.

@mister38 I'm thinking 3 week cycle of Deficit 1 week of rack pulls and then try the 500 again. I use the ATG lifts when my knees hurt so I go a bit light.

Yo Dracoy, when do you think you'll hit 405 on the squat by? ~ Drakoy

@rak000 Not close. Need to push 385.... I'll let you know, squats are tough mentally.

@YoCard Ahhh I see btw a great workout for added ROM are elevated deadlifts on a box. They really work well. give it a try next time. and also next video you gotta rock your old name out, You havent been using Dracoy anymore, im not happy about that

[YoCard]

@rak000 Haha always go by Dracoy :)

dood i can't believe you hook gripped that. crazy grip tolerance there.

@DreadfulControversy Deficit deadlifts (increase ROM) increases the difficulty of the lift, theoretically making the normal deadlift easier when I switch back.

Why stack the deadlift with 25's? LUL. Is that Joe Budden playing!?
