2nd Black Belt
who said average? His claim was bb have weak cores, that seems to include all bodybuilders
as you have the facts, what is the mean average dead lift weight for body builders ?
You mentioned 500 lbs deadlift as some sort of standard of strength. I'm a military guy and I've known lots of body builders and power lifters. I'm a novice power lifter myself. If you don't train something, then it's not going to get strong. A 500 lbs deadlift is an impressive but doable weight for most males with a couple of years training (2-3x body weight). But that's specifically training it. Deadlifts are not a body building lift.
