Deadlift Workout

Deadlift Cycle

 
When I am taking a long gap between competitions I do not do competition deadlift until the ten weeks before I compete.  I use a lot of stiff leg, romanian and roundback deadlift.  Keep the repetitions high 8-12 and do 3-5 sets.  I believe in practicing technique and being comfortable with your equipment.  The point of this program is to give you the opportunity to develop technical mastery in the weeks leading up to the meet.  The point is to be very confident in your opener and second attempt which allows you to know your fatigue level going into your third deadlift.

 
Preparation Phase (5 weeks)
Light Day--Box Deadlift (Standing on 3.5 inch box)--5 sets of 3-5 reps starting at 70% of best competition deadlift in the last 6 months.  Set 1-70%, Set 2-72.5% Set 3-75% Set 4-77.5% Set 5-80%  If all repetitions are completed, full 5 reps each set, add 2.5% the next week.  This day is done after squat technique work on the same day.

 
Heavy day--Competition deadlift (full competition gear) 5 singles with your emergency opener.  You want these to all be perfect repetitions.  If you have a technical error during one of these repetitions you are going too heavy. This is the weight that you would lift if you felt totally gassed going into deadlift and just wanted to finish the meet.  I consider this to be 5-7% lower than my normal opener.  The point here is to practice your technique including set up.  Over the course of the five weeks, you want to finish week five with a weight that is the heaviest possible weight you would choose as an opener. For me, this is halfway between my opener and my second attempt.

 
Assistance work is usually seated good mornings, back extension, reverse hyperextension, and kettlebell swings.

 
Competition Phase (4-5 weeks but can be as short as three)
Four weeks out--Heavy Day (Full Competition gear) build to a single at the designated weight of the day.  Week 1-Second attempt; Week 2-Second + 2.5-5%; Week 3-Second attempt (This workout no closer than 10 days from the contest); Week 4-No Heavy Deadlifts.
Light Day all weeks of competition phase is just dress rehearsal for your opening deadlift.  Warm up as if you were at the competition and perform one single with your opener.

 
Competition day--Opener-92% (630), Second-98% (675), Third-102% (711)
