![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Lotus: What weight were you lifting, and what was both your grip (prone, alternating) and your stance (stiff leg, sumo)? I like deads a lot, I really know what FlexMex means by his bus metaphor, but they KILL my back. And I'm not talking about moving major iron, either, but a pretty light bar, maybe 320 for reps, is all. I've been doing sumo DLs on leg day, but find that I can't afterward do barbell rows on back day without throwing a fucking disk. If I do DLs on back day, my back's still killing me on leg day, and my squats suck bigtime. Maybe I should try a lighter bar? Vary the grip or stance? Don't know. This week I left them out of my leg routine, and might put them in on back day (tomorrow) go lighter, and see if I can squat worth a damn next Monday. Just rambling, now. Glad you discovered what some bros call "the King of lifts." Bjaarki ------------------ BECOME SOMEONE'S HERO! IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In my opinion deadlifts are 1 of the main 3 importand lifts. 1 : Bench press. 2 : Squat. 3 : Deadlifts. If you're just starting to do them, I think you'll find a IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() OH jeez... i really do think that these are gonna make so much difference... i feel muscles hurtin now that i never have before. i did them with my knees slightly bent to begin then to a fully exstended position. i began with just a plate on each side being that ive never done them befor... and ended up with my last set of 5 with 280. I did 4 sets total... now i think im gonna die, i can hardly move... i love it ! IP: Logged |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I like deads too, but I tried someones (rangers, i think) squat routine of strip sets. That destroyed my legs, still hurt from doing them on sunday. If you like the pain try them. IP: Logged |
