Deadlifts every week?

[-DedicateD-]

im debating whether to do them once a week or once every other week as well...

i want to get the benefits of deadlifting often, but i dont want to break my body down into a position were as i get vulnerable for injury

im going to prob go 2 weeks then 1 week off

I don't think you will be breaking your body down as long as you stay in control on ur deads....I find them taxing on my body, but not painfully taxing as long as I keep the reps above 4, and no more than 8....Anything under or above this rep range seems to be overkill, leads to poor form, and generally makes you more vulnerable to injury....

i agree with the rep scheme and train of thought ...i used to train deads every week for some time

i took a day off today and worked in some bb rows and tbar rows indirectly hitting the lower back....these are 2 exercises that i could not include after deadlifts at the beggning of a workout

although i love deadlifts, i havnt made up my mind yet on how im going to continue

I have T-bar rows in mine and deads, but never bent rows t-bars and deads all in the same...

My Back routine looks like this...

Closegrip Underhand Chins:

3 sets, 12-8 reps...

Superset with Widegrip Lat pulldowns:

3 sets 12-10 reps

Deadlift:
135,225,315--->warm ups

405-->6 425-->6 445--->5-7

T-Bar Rows:

3 sets, 12-8 reps, dropset on last set for 15-20 reps...
