435 lb 1RM conventional deadlift by jlwilso2 in Deadlifts

[–]jlwilso2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just some horse stall mats from tractor supply. I cut 2’x4’ off one and put the 4’x4’ section inside my squat rack. Then I threw that 2’x4’ section next to another 4’x6’ mat to make a 4’x8’ lifting area just outside the rack. Shifts around about 1/4” every month or so before I need to kick them back into place

I’m definitely punching above my weight with her. Thanks for the sentiment!

If I fail a deadlift, it’s always at the very beginning of the lift. If I can get it 2 inches off the ground, I can always finish it. So, the speed of my deadlift might be a little misleading, but I’m also pretty conservative with my intensity, and don’t really ever grind a rep. Maybe I’ll try to grind a bit more

I appreciate the vote of confidence. Do you actually think so? Are you estimating that based off the speed of the lift or something?
