In all honesty, dead lift is the only traditional lift I do. For squats, I do weighted pistol squats instead. For bench, I do dumbbell incline (80 lb. dumbbells currently). For military press, I do kettlebell press (24kg kbs currently). For rows, I do renegade rows (60 lb. dumbbells) as well as weighted pullups (10 lb. weights).
My focus is really on staying lean and ripped more than anything, but I'm kind of obsessed with dead lift (because, as one of my buddies said, my body is made for dead lifting).. so I track it fairly closely.
