Friday are 25hr awake days lol.Going hard on the calories eh?
245-250 is the goal for 2023 bulkIt probably matters least with deadlift-only compared to a full meet lifter, but there are essentially proven statistics now that tell us optimally eventual bodyweight classes, on average, for most lifters based on height.
As in, assuming you can build enough muscle without becoming excessively fat, eventually filling out the frame to compete in X class tends to produce the overall greatest competitive totals. This list was allegedly made in conjunction with Boris Sheiko:
Height(CM) Height(ft inch) Weight(KG) Weight (Lbs)
145 (+/- 3) 4'9" (+/- 1.2) 52 114.64
149 (+/- 3) 4'10" (+/- 1.2) 56 123.45
155 (+/- 2.5) 5'1" (+/- 1) 60 132.27
160 (+/- 2) 5'3" (+/- 0.8) 67.5 148.81
164 (+/- 2) 5'4" (+/ 0.8) 75 165.34
168 (+/- 2) 5'6" (+/ 0.8) 82.5 181.88
171 (+/- 2) 5'7" (+/ 0.8) 90 198.41
174.5 (+/- 2) 5'8" (+/ 0.8) 100 220.46
177.5 (+/- 2) 5'9" (+/ 0.8) 110 242.5
186.5 (+/- 6) 6'1" (+/ 2.4) 110+ 242.5+
For someone 5’10” like myself, I’m probably going to have the best odds of totaling elite at 110/242. Maybe 125/275. For 6’3”, that’s going to be a 275/308 lifter all day.
Obviously with deadlift gaining a belly starts to get in the way, but you around 260-275 again would probably eventually be a terrific spot for your biggest pulls ever.
See previous postIdk why but I stopped getting updates on this thread, anyone quit or die yet?
Hows everything going so far
Yep that's beast mode lol. I don't have great leverage for the deadlift but I was happy with my 425x3 after my boxing workout today, until I saw 660x2 and now I just feel like I got kicked in the dick lolDamn man, 666 for a double is nearly as impressive as 700 for a single to me (and I put everything on 1RM strength). It’s so brutally hard to pull a double over 90%! Way to persevere.
Now understand that given your suboptimal recovery and substantial fatigue debt you’ve built up being sick, school, this giant psyched up pull, this taper is going to be longer/require more rest to peak in 23 days. If you have to cut more out of the coming weeks than expected, that is just fine. You have done all you need to ensure you will pull 700, provided you don’t do too much from here on or get hurt.
Also, nice shirt

More than 50% more weight lolYep that's beast mode lol. I don't have great leverage for the deadlift but I was happy with my 425x3 after my boxing workout today, until I saw 660x2 and now I just feel like I got kicked in the dick lol
Depends how you look at it....More than 50% more weight lol
Sure, everyone knows squatting 1lb for 1,000 reps is the same as squatting a grandDepends how you look at it....
425x3=1275
660x2=1320
Just a little different
I'm hot on his trail
I actually had someone the other day tell me that benching 185x10-12 was about the same as 315x6, I just said ya, I bet.Sure, everyone knows squatting 1lb for 1,000 reps is the same as squatting a grand
The sad thing is there are really people who try to cope with this kind of bro-logic.
Yeah 1,000 bodyweight squats to depth straight would be pretty nuts, but you get the ideaI actually had someone the other day tell me that benching 185x10-12 was about the same as 315x6, I just said ya, I bet.
But, can you do 1000 reps with 1lb?
I definitely can't. I don't think I can raise my hand 1000 times lol
Yes now its time to recover.Damn man, 666 for a double is nearly as impressive as 700 for a single to me (and I put everything on 1RM strength). It’s so brutally hard to pull a double over 90%! Way to persevere.

Being 5'9" myself I find these numbers frustrating although likely accurate lolIt probably matters least with deadlift-only compared to a full meet lifter, but there are essentially proven statistics now that tell us optimally eventual bodyweight classes, on average, for most lifters based on height.

This is general sizing required for best odds to perform an elite total. As in, the top 1% of a weightclass in a competitive sport.Being 5'9" myself I find these numbers frustrating although likely accurate lol
Isn't that why we do this?The 1% of the 1%.
Idk how to answer that; you were just frustrated so I wanted to give some contextIsn't that why we do this?
People talk **** about wide, high box squats but it really is a good exercise. Throw some bands on it and make it a part of a circuit with plyometrics, low back and abs at a really high pace and you got some wicked DE right thereYeah 20” box is high enough to park a car under you; great way to train explosive hip/glute drive.
Sounds like it’s just sticking to the plan from here on in - get all the sleep you can!
It’s a very poor way to get better at a comp squat, but that doesn’t mean it can’t have great athletic value. Clint Darden has used them for explosive lower body work for a long time for strongman.People talk **** about wide, high box squats but it really is a good exercise.
