I’ve been lifting for 25 years now and have concluded that deadlifts can fit on any day.

I lift weights at home (husband accumulated a set of bars and plates and dumbbells before we got together), it’s not my main workout but deadlifts are the only lift I actually honest to God enjoy. And it helps a lot with yoga.

A lot of people start off with them and go hard but even Arnold threw them in at the end of his workout for 10 reps!

I scale the weight up as I do other things, start with unloaded 30lb bar, adding 10lb for sets of 10 until I can do only 5 reps then stop. Most stuff (curls, etc) I cannot do much weight so each exercise I drop off as I cannot do, towards the end it’s literally just deadlifts, add weight, more deadlifts.
