Think I'll jump in here as well. (5 plates only though, lol)
Aiming to hit 220k in a month's time.
I pulled 210k of a platform on Monday which equals my current PB. So hopefully i'll be right on track.
I'm using this program here. Just completed week 4. I ran it for two consecutive cycles last year and it took my dead from 185k to 210k. I would deffo recommend it for an intermediate level deadlifter.
What's everyone elses plan of attack?
There seems to be about a million and one ways to train the lift so I am curious as to see what everyone else is doing.

Haven't deadlifted for a long time. Last night I did 6 plates for 8 reps with relative ease.
Anybody up for 7 or 8?

well i can pick up a 100kg barbell off the deck and row it a good few times.
but i guess thats different to pulling off the deck and driving with your back and legs.
what sort of hypertrophy do you experience from DL's?

depends on your back strength and leg strength, i deadlifted 140x3 first time i tried, i was around 100kg and had played rugby for years and years, and seemed to pick it up quite easily
but my training partner struggled with a 60kg deadlift for 3 sets of 10 when he started, now he does 300kg, so theres hope for us all lol

Lack of squatting may make it hard initially swift.

i couldn't give you a honest answer mate as i honestly do not know
I never measured results month by month as i just went by how i looked, i do know that for my size i can lift more than people who are substantially bigger than me in the muscle department
For instance my bench absolutely 100% sucks at a lousy 65kg for reps, my deadlift is 150kg for reps, squat is around 90kg for 20 reps. I can pull more than i can push with ease, perhaps my back is my strongest bodypart who knows. I do know that with a heavy deadlift if you mess with your form its the easiest way of ƒucking yourself up

Compounds = mass, it's that simple. If a novice just did a routine based around squats, deadlifts and bench as well as some oly lifts done properly and then throw in a few accessory exercises they would out grow everyone IMO. I attribute all of my muscle gains to doing compounds since the start, You can only hit so hard with iso exercises.

and i totally agree but is deadlift essential where growth is concerned is my thinking.
rowing and pulldowns is great for back growth IME im not so sure deadlift is
