Not really. My deadlift is over a hundred pounds more than I can squat, but I know someone who's the opposite. He just doesn't have the back strength compared to leg strength.
Right now I doing a high volume program, the rest periods between sets is 30-45 seconds and 2 minutes between different exercises. The dead lifts are last and that’s the best I can do with good form and timing. Now that you mention it my best 1 rep squat is higher than my dead lift. KICKBOY
It's such a lovely day that I've been in the garden doing a Scrapper workout and working on my tan at the same time. About ten litres of water later and I think I'm almost rehydrated

Did you do number 1 or 2? I'm too cheap to buy the DVD, but those free workouts are pretty good, as is 'round and round'.
