Earlier today I deadlifted 605 lbs. I haven't deadlifted 600 since 2004. I took a 5 year break from powerlifting mainly due to laziness. Started back around 2010. Anyway in 04 my conventional squat was 475@220 bodyweight, 600 conventional DL, 345 BP. Now I've converted to sumo squats, 675x2. I've also converted to sumo DL's but haven't had as much success with them, 550 lbs!! Well today I had to go back to basics. My whole focus was making that sumo DL like a sumo half squat! I was stuck on 550 and got 605 today. Part of my mental block was also a few back injuries! Changing from conventional to sumo helped that!
