For instance, there was this 48-year-old guy who told me he had a deadlift 1RM of 264lbs. Not bad for a guy who’d only been lifting six months, but not exactly setting the world on fire either. For the record, he probably weighed 210.
Anyway, I helped him out by getting him to do the one thing he wasn’t doing and guess what he pulled? Any offers?
352lbs.
Yep. That’s not a typo. He went from a 264 max to a 352 max—an 88-pound difference.
Guess how long it took?—ten minutes tops. A 33% increase in his 1RM on the deadlift in ten minutes. How is this possible?
Simple...
