High volume deadlifting – but not necessarily high-rep sets – can turn you into a monster. If you're not deadlifting on the reg, you're missing out on a huge opportunity.
Sadiv Sets
Build appreciable deadlift volume without crushing your body by using Sadiv sets:
- Load a bar with 60% of your deadlift 1 RM.
- Set a timer for 12 minutes.
- Perform as many singles as possible in 12 minutes, shooting for a minimum of 20 reps. Each rep should be performed with maximal speed from the floor. Release the bar between sets, rest until you're ready, and repeat.
- Once 12 minutes are up, record your score. Try to beat that the next time around, with good form of course.
