Is deadlifts a part of your routine?

[bar]

I normally do 5x5 once a week either with back or legs. sucks doing them, but great for building mass.

Deads are a great all around builder, I have no problem sleeping the night I do deads.

YES I added from the floor deads back into my routine several months ago and it has made a tremendous difference. For me, the one back exercise that really gets the deep tissue and shit I just feel good from them, like nothing else. Plus the overall effects - legs, hips, traps, grip, etc ... A MUST LIFT

Kinda hard not to deadlift when you're a powerlifter, lol. I also do pulls out of the power-rack. They're great for upperback and traps.

If you want big traps and fat erectors deads are the only way to go!

Ingram, you are such a big bastard. I wish I looked like you

 

[schwantz]

deads are fuckin awsome..if you wanna get big they say you have to squat big and deadlift big......i love the pump and the light head feeling you get is great

 

[schwantz]

DEADS are fuckin great...the pump is unreal and i start my back routine with 2 warmup sets and 5 work sets i love them and cant get enough

 

[ThunderGod66]

Yea I do em...but I almost never see anyone else in my gym do them.
I don't know how many of you read flex but they had a good article about deads this month's issue.
Dorian and Ronnie do them...how can you argue with 2 of the best backs ever.

If you think about it, all of the great ones deadlifted: Arnold, Franco, Dorian, Ronnie. Bottom line is IT WORKS! I've gotten thicker since I incorporated them into my workouts. If you want the thick, dense muscle, deads are the only way to go.
