I have been working through the 5/3/1 method during the last 10 weeks and my deadlift reps when down alot. Last week I lifted 260lbs for 6 reps. This week I did 270lbs for 4 reps.
What exercises can be use to help strength the back in order to break through and grow the muscles? My assistance exercises were some good mornings and some 5 sets of rack deads for about 8 reps. Tonight I did quarter deads. I lifted the bar up about 1-2 feet and put it back down. I feel like my initial lifting pointing is my weak point and I have seen that it is a weak point for most lifters. I did 5 x 8 on this exercise just looking to see if it will help strengthen my weak spot.
I am doing this right or is there something else I should be doing? I lift at home and not in a gym.
