Where do I put deadlifts? 12 January 2013 22:24 (permalink)

Hello. It's been a long time since I've been here - lots of stuff has happened in my life over the past couple of years (yep, years) and I haven't really focused on my training.

My question is:
After a lot of trial and error, I've worked out I respond best to a push/pull/legs routine. I'm obviously doing squats on legs day, would DLs go on back day?

I know this is a really basic question, but I've only recently started doing a variation of both, due to other issues.

Did them today - very light, I have to go super easy - in fact so easy I was able to do them at the end of the workout! It's going to be a long haul back to full recovery...

I often do and feel the rest of my workout can suffer as a result Yeh completely agree, zaps all my energy lol. I just try to do heavy deadlifts one week going to complete failure and higher reps the next leaving a bit in the tank. Works for me personally.
