Deadlifting Beginner

I ususally aim for 4 sets.

1st set : is a warm up, 10 reps at a weight that is heavy enough to make me work but not be too challenging to lift (I do about 75#). The warm up is just to make sure that my form is still good, and that I have no surprise kinks or pains anywhere that would compromise my body on the heavier lifts.

2nd and 3rd set: I aim for 10 reps at a challenging weight, currently this is about 105-115#, depending on how I feel that day.

4th set I aim for just 6-8 reps at a very challenging weight for me, which is about 120-125 # right now.

This is my current regime, but really, depending on what your body tells yous and what you are trying to achieve, there are many other ways to space them out!
