| My deadlift is shocking compared to my upper body as over the years i neglected me legs and lower back until i got into strengh training. I am knocking on the door of a 180kg raw bench yet only puyll 220 for one. Suppose its down to many factors, genetics, how you have trained in the past and what you like to do. | |||

| I have recently started to train for strength, currently i do all lifting beltless and my back feels fine. When do you decide to wear a belt and would it increase my totals? Mark | |||

| Hi all, Been here for a while but rarely post, just read up and learn to be honest. I have trained for a long time but followed a bodybuilding style routine. For the last six months or so i have tried to go heavier and concentrate on the basisc with a bit of bodybuilding stuff on there. I have taken the plunge as i want to take up strongman and possibly powerlifting at one stage, so i need to nail the legs and back as my deadlift and squat are poor. Only started deadlifting just over six months ago, did try it prior but then stopped. I have been squatting for even less time than that properly. Tonights training was a short session, back only. Deadlift, all raw not even a belt. 100 x 5 140 x 5 180 x 1 220 x 1 PB 180 x 5 Dumbbell Rows 60 x 5 x each arm 60 x 5 x each arm 50 x 10 x each arm Cable rows unknown weight at 10 x 4 Finished | |||
