This is a high frequency approach to deadliftning. The following is cut and pasted from a thread on T-nation:
Here is the cycle I use... it is a 4 days cycle (so 4 days per week):
DAY 1. 60% of your max for 10 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 2. 60% of your max for 13 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 3: 60% of your max for 15 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 4. 60% + 40lbs for 10 sets of 1 done as fast as possible
Then restart the cycle with 20lbs more... so it would look like:
DAY 1. 60% of your max + 20lbs for 10 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 2. 60% of your max + 20lbs for 13 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 3: 60% of your max + 20lbs for 15 sets of 2 done as fast as possible
DAY 4. 60% + 60lbs for 10 sets of 1 done as fast as possible
You keep going until you start to have a form breakdown, this is
normally after 3-4 cycles (some will extend it to 5-6) after that you
stop deadlifting for a week, retest your max and start a new cycle.
The goal is to go as fast as possible (not during the set, but taking short rest periods between sets).
Good time targets are:
DAY 1. Under 3 minutes
DAY 2.Under 4 minutes
DAY 3. Under 6 minutes
Day 4: Under 2 minutes
