Praise the Deadlift "How has it helped you?"

[JollyRogers]

Well I love it for it gives me an insane wide back and traps like I never knew...lol and it hits my midback quite nice, like no other

What do ya gotta say?

 

[Mike_Rojas]

Just started doing them and traps are growing fast. Awesome move (but uncomfortable as hell!)

Nuttin but a big ass. I don't do them anymore.

 

[revexrevex]

gave me wide waist

 

[NWinters]

boooo freakin hoo, im as strong as i ever been my waist has a 38in. girth, all muscle. I have a big muscular ass, and I have 2 muscle bound pythons running between my spine. Deads are the shit. Good for your lungs also.

 

[wildonsquats]

normally BB = bodybuilder or barbell but in this case BB = big back after deadlifts

 

[The Red Dragon]

better stabilization on squats
lotsa spill over to things like bench press or barbell curls
the same can be said for squats, but I wouldn't be able to squat as much as I can without the deadlift. I'd imagine it would help with my cleans too.

 

[slobberknocker]

Made me huge, and it made my penis bigger I think.

 

[sp1z-]

Great for overall back, and they help posture

 

[casualbb]

As a bodybuilder, an exercise is just a means to an end, the end being big muscles. And I don't want my back end to be big.

I did get much bigger hams though, which is nice. But I don't want crazy back. So hence my switch from SLDL to leg curl.
