DL Stall Advice

[jagreen34]

I've experienced a stall on my DL at 425x5

Here's some training history... I'm about 16 weeks in on Texas Method and have found none of the volume a problem thus far. I've been experiencing steady gains and this is the first stall.

Last PR day for other lifts was:
SQ 420x5
BP 295x4
OHP 210x2
PC 185x5x3 with 3min rest

DL history (I work it on Monday after Vol SQ and BP or OHP.)
365x5
375x5
385x5
395x4
395x5
405x4
405x5
415x3
415x5
425x4
425x2 Today.

I'm just wondering where I should go from here? A 10% Deload and work back up with slower increases (5# as I near 415)? Or should I move to 3s?

Just let me know what your advice is? There has been no nutritional change, sleep change, recovery etc.

Probably need some fluctuation in the rep ranges you are using. A week off might help as well. Its kinda hard to say.

I'd probably set up a rotation of 5s, 3s, 1s with about 30 lbs in between each one.

Only 5 lbs. between your DL and squat? Small hands? Form issue? Squatting high? Something seems amiss.

Listen to Andy, obviously, but could try moving DL to a different day. You might be more smoked after your VD squats than you realize.

It might be worth noting, that he's still taking 10lbs jumps. Wouldn't going down to 5lbs jumps be a good idea?

Good catch

An even better catch.

Thanks guys. Sometimes I move through these posts fast and occasionally miss some stuff
