It dedpnds on how long you have b een lifting. But if yoiu want to get serious into this sport anyone will tell you that at yoiur hight yoiu need to be 250+ lbs. 325 is a good place to start though
Its fine bro just train hard and it will go up gauranteed.

Good mornings are a great exercise to increase youir dead a well as stiff legged deads. Since you are new to PL doing the DL itself to get the form down is useful as well. Just don't do it to failure ,keep the reps low and reset after every rep betwen like 3-6 reps.
like GRIMMER said, if you're that tall then you're going to have to be alot bigger if you plan on doing much in competition. the guys that are 6'2" are near the 275-300 mark. it's tough being in the same class as a guy who is 6 inches shorter.
1 month ago i was 200 lbs i did a deca/dbol cycle and i went 220lbs, i have 5 more weeks til the cycle ends and i want to up the doses so i hope i get 230-240 lbs at the end of the cycleQuote:

if i continue cycling i think in 1 year i will add 70 lbs
Don't let it get you down. 3 years ago, I was 212 lbs and deadlifting 365 for 1 rep. Now, I am 245 and deadlifting 545+ for one rep.
It will come. Everyone STARTS somewhere. Good luck.
Started to dabble 5 months into your lifting, eh? Guess you hit pretty close to your potential early. :unsure:
Anyway, like these guys said it ill tke some time. Gain weight.
What are your other lifts? How do you train the deadlift?

behind neck press:230
barbell curl :180
If you keep working, then you will get stronger... I am 190 and best I have done is 630. I started in 1996 with a 475 pull... Just work hard..:lift:
Hey man like everyone else said it's a good start. I would really take GRIMM's advice bout the GM's to some people they are a scary excercise (they were to me after pulling a muscle in my lower back) but you just have to overcome that THEY'RE GREAT. Ur DL will get up there just for right now since your just starting on DE days you can do 8 singles with 60% of ur 1RM.
Isquat700 ur BW is only 190 how are your other lifts???ARE you close to reaching ELITE or have you already??
you started out with a 475 pull?? at what weight? wow.Quote:
