I hit 405 x 10 on the AMRAP set at the end of my 5-3-1 deadlift day (it's my 5's week). Pretty happy with that.
Note: 3-inch sumo deadlift180 x 7 today for volume deadlift day
Only counts with reverse bands iirc.Note: 3-inch sumo deadlift
Your pulling strength is still there after all the calisthenics. That's great!
Indeed! But I needed some time to groove the deadlift to realize it!Your pulling strength is still there after all the calisthenics. That's great!
"poverty dead?"I got 315 x 2 poverty dead after I failed 355 today.
He's saying he has a poverty deadlift, or an abnormally low deadlift relative to the rest of his abilities. You see that common in powerlifting - e.g. a poverty bench for someone who benches 225lbs but squats and pulls 400+."poverty dead?"

OK. I don't understand the pejorative. Where is it written that one must be equally talented at or equally interested in improving all three lifts?He's saying he has a poverty deadlift, or an abnormally low deadlift relative to the rest of his abilities.

I agree but, you know, internet culture... Might as well be screaming at the moon.OK. I don't understand the pejorative. Where is it written that one must be equally talented at or equally interested in improving all three lifts?

We’re in agreement. I was explaining the term. I think it comes from a self esteem issue, so joking about a “poverty” lift takes the sting out a little when someone else goes “woah you only (lift) X lbs?! I thought you were strong!”OK. I don't understand the pejorative. Where is it written that one must be equally talented at or equally interested in improving all three lifts?
