The Magnusson Ortmayer (Mag/Ort) deadlift program is a brutal deadlift-only program that has helped tons of lifters add serious weight to their deadlift. If you’re looking to build out your work capacity for deadlifts, this is a great option. This is either an 11 or 12 week deadlift program depending upon if you desire to test your maxes on week 12.

Mag Ort packs the week’s deadlift work into one heavy session instead of spreading it across multiple days. Each week runs 4 sets of 4 at 70%, two heavy doubles at 80% and 90%, then a back-off set at 70% for 8 or more reps. Hit that rep target and you add 10 lbs to your working numbers the following week. Miss it and you repeat the week instead of moving on.

This program is built for lifters who already have solid deadlift technique and want to specialize on the pull for 11 to 12 weeks. It works best if you can recover from frequent near-max doubles, since the 80% and 90% work shows up every week. If you’re newer to lifting or your squat and bench need attention too, a program with more balanced volume across all three lifts, like GZCLP, will serve you better than a deadlift-only block.
