Deadlifting Poll - Please Vote!
Next workout, Saturday or Sunday, I’m going for a new personal best deadlift. Current record is 435. I can’t decide if I should try for a 440 or a 445 lift. In the past I’ve been increasing my lifts mostly by 5 pounds, sometimes by 10. Of course, it gets harder to up the weight the higher I go! So this time I’d like bodyspace members to decide for me. Should I be conservative and only try 440, or be more daring and try to lift 445? I will attempt the lift that gets the most votes!

500!!! Tony, I’m not trying to be a prick, but only you know how tough/easy 435 was for you and how your body feels now. You make the call big guy, don’t let any of us make that decision for you.Just my opinion. Let us know how it goes. Stay Strong.

Steve’s right, but I think you’re looking at it as a challenge. How much of a challenge is the question.
445.

You will have to be the judge when you hit the gym. See how you feel. 445
