The quest an 800 (900?) deadlift and specialization

[BendtheBar]

2011 Olympia deadlift results are on page 6. I believe they are single ply.

How would I qualify for the Olympia?

Next year I really hoping to be rocking 800+ with gear. And from there it's 900 or die.

Just hit a meet and fill out the request to be considered. I made it in last year with 660 (or something in that ball park). You should have no issue qualifying. Honeycutt and myself both have intentions of lifting at it this year.

Thanks. I might have to make that a 2013 goal.

Looking at the Powerlifting Watch Rankings I think the top multi ply ranking was 811 for the 275 pound class and 826 for single ply.
