DW...I think DW struggled with deadlift at his last meet. I believe it was very frustrating. I found the link:

DW's Journal

5 pound squat PR, deadlifts were sub-par. But DW commented that the flights were rushed.

Ok so my examples are wrong but my opinion remains the same: you can't specialise in one lift without your others suffering.

While they may suffer initially, I don't think it would be that long before you could bring them back up again. That may be a very important point if you have a competition schedule, but for the average lifter it's probably not as big of a concern.

Here it is unedited from when it was originally published. This is one of my very early articles. It's interesting looking back at these, the writing style is different. My views on the topic have changed somewhat as well.
