How Strong Should My Deadlift Be?

First, learn to deadlift with good form using the tutorial videos below. Once you can deadlift your body weight with good form, deadlifting 1.5x your body weight is a key basic strength level for most lifters.

A double bodyweight deadlift would be a significant marker that you are significantly above the general population and can consider yourself strong.

A classic life-goal milestone for strength enthusiasts is a 500lb (227kg) deadlift.

The strength levels slider above gives an overview of deadlift strength levels, calculated for your specific age, sex, and body weight.

Deadlifting rewards lifters who eat big and are not scared of being a higher body weight.
