i've been lifting 9+ years, gone through many different programs and lifted for many many different purposes...
lately i've come to the conclusion that i prefer to not do deadlifts and squats in the same cycle (i run a 6wk periodization right now)...
i seem to notice much more growth and progression when i stick to one of the two, and switch to the other when i start my program over.
i still run stiff-legged deads continuously...
my question is does anyone else do this? i ask the more serious lifters at my gym but 99.9% of them don't deadlift period.
am i overlooking anything by only doing one and not the other? i have plenty of rationale for doing things my way but am basically looking for any good arguments for running both deadlifts and squats at the same time.
sry about the rambling lol it's late... anyways, thx for the read and replies!
