I know must of you on here will probably warm up with 3 plates each side on a deadlift but I got 2 reps out with 3 plates today. The most I've ever done. That's it really, self absorbance over

The name of this game is to do better than you did before, without getting injured. Nice work buddy and congratulations on your succeeding at that!

BTW Most of us don't warm up with that weight.

Congrats on the PR. That's what it's all about.... lifting more and more weight with time with proper form.

We'll done did u use straps or just grip strength

Tbh I did use straps but I think it was for a mental edge than physical cos I did 2 plates and a 10 before that without straps. Funny thing is I tried 3 plates and a 2.5 kg and couldn't get it off the ground!!!

Awesome work man!

I remember when I first got the 3 plates locked out. Was a triumphant victory and I'm happy for you.

As WW said, most of us don't warm up with 315.....most of the guys here (the ones that give a shit) pull between 450-605 with the occasional 700+ for the pro's/elite.

Congrats fella.

Congrats fella.

I am pulling 425 for a few reps now, but it wasn't very long ago 315 was about my max. Congrats again, and I like how you are using this thread to motivate yourself.

Congrats. I'd keep the reps on the warmup sets low also. Like 135x5, 185x5, 225x3, 275x3, then a max set with 315x3, for example. If you're gonna do a higher rep all-out set with a lower weight, do it after you've done your heaviest set. And don't be afraid to rest 3-5 minutes between sets. You might need to rest up to 10 minutes after your last set of deads (or squats on leg day) before moving on to another exercise.
