Default Re: Deadlift question (prop bet help needed)

[ QUOTE ]
My questions really are just HOW can I pack on the most weight, safely within 6 months on my dead lifts, and what other lifts can I do to help improve my deads.

[/ QUOTE ]

I don't know. The dead lift is a tricky thing in that for a lot of us, "it takes more than it gives." The good news is that there are a ton of assistance exercises that help improve it without you actually needing to do it.

Anyway, you could try to find a strength coach or inquire with powerlifters.

Short of that, I'd try something with 4 phases, breaks in between. I'd start with very high volume to develop strength, endurance, etc for the months ahead in the first. In the middle two I'd tweak amounts of dynamic and assistance with varying quantities of high intensity pulls trying to get an idea of how I'd put together/how my body responded for phase 4.
