how much should I be able to deadlift? Anonymous 06/25/26(Thu)09:59:44 No.77355084

I weigh 220 and want to start deadlifting. I have been going to the gym for 3 years now but never deadlifted. How much should I expect to 1RM?

have you tried just starting with like a plate on each side and checking for yourself?

How are we supposed to know anon? Start small and keep adding weight.

For someone that has been in the gym for 3 years this really shouldn't need explanation.

If you did squats your deadlift should be okay. If not... well... what the fuck were you doing for 3 years?

But as >>77355096 said. Just stack light weight, lift it. If it feels easier, stack more weight. Keep going until it feels challenging.

start with 1 plates on each side, add moar until it feels adequate. just make sure your technique is solid enough that its not dangerous. im 165, and i deadlift 275 for 4 reps so you can bet that you'll lift more than me in no time
