I scale the weight up as I do other things, start with unloaded 30lb bar, adding 10lb for sets of 10 until I can do only 5 reps then stop. Most stuff (curls, etc) I cannot do much weight so each exercise I drop off as I cannot do, towards the end it’s literally just deadlifts, add weight, more deadlifts.

I love it. We used to do this in high school but with seated cable pulls. I didn’t understand how to activate certain muscles at that age so I ended up with big arms instead of a big back!
That’s where the deadlifts come in…
