_"Configure your skeletons!"_ - that's what my old anatomy professor would yell before he started beating us with his cane. Good times.

[@noelstoll5384]

Picltr San What does being French or speaking English poorly have anything to do with the rest of your comment?

[@austinsteed1581]

Been a shin bleeder most of my lifting life and this saved me. Thanks man!

[@korvdploeg1533]

I will never ever EVER get tired of you covering deadlift flaws, mistakes or what so ever. For me, its the best way to stay sharp and focused! Thanx man

3:15 I love these “not this way” demos. Snorted my coffee watching the ‘not a teeter totter’.

“Respect for the Shins” -Airport Stranger Love it!

was dying at that part lolol

[@scorpleeon]

My fave part as well

[@gomer2813]

me too, something about that was comical, especially since I used to do that (thanks to the instructions of Silent Mike)

[@BT-oj1bn]

nearly spit out my greek yogurt

[@fuadismayilzada1816]

lol

[@jjdpc2000]

The comprehensive deadlift tutorial at the end was beautiful! Straight to the point, included all the finer points and easy to understand. Awesomely done!

[@rjwasser8312]

Dude... I’ve been doing 2 and 3 forever it seems. Thanks for this. Never had deadlift explained like this.

[@peacefulfren8879]

lmao same. Next time Im doing deadlifts im going to check myself in the mirror and do less weight to focus on form

[@RandomVidz690]

Song: Dead Quiet- A Thousand Lives

[@isaaccox737]

Thank you

[@ivanzugaj793]

I couldnt find the song with that name..

[@poutsablue2346]

From album "Dead Quiet", the 9th song (bonus track)

[@noloking]

I love you, lawls!

[@pajathetrut]

cant find it anywhere to listen to it, and i listened to the whole 2 albums on bandcamp...

[@SlatedMoon]

At the end it sounds like he says, “Train on time”. 🤣🤣🤣

[@benbmusic88]

Wait that's not what he's saying? I've been so punctual for nothing..

[@jonih3274]

That's exactly what he says lol

[@xantishayde-walker4593]

I'm pretty sure it's "Train Untamed" as in Untamed Strength. Ya' know, like his gym? Don't worry, it took me about 7 videos to get what he was saying. Lol! Love the videos though.

[@bailiojaycee233]

@@xantishayde-walker4593 At this point it took me dozens upon dozens of videos..

[@ganganaperera9405]

😂😂😂😂

[@uhaveabuttface]

I fixed this, by fixing my shoulder position after watching your video. My hips were also a little low, thanks for the tips!👍

[@InfiniteAthletics]

You got a little something something on the shins.

[@99Atomicbush]

Infinite Athletics I see you vro 👀

[@elreydelmundo1343]

Nothing says "I do meth" like a pair of bloody shins.

[@thatoneguy8493]

Best DL video I’ve ever seen. Great, thank you!

[@alex3wielki]

Love the music at the beginning. It's great you gave credit to the band in the description!

[@AhmedAli-bh4xb]

Foolish bros, You have to know that real legends like me get bloody thighs as result of deadlifting.

[@mustang8206]

Eddie Hall's entire leg would get bloody

[@joeshmoe7967]

I love how Alan's channel always rocks out. Cheers

[@mattturner3696]

My fix for bloody shins was accidental. For several months I had to lift in a place where I couldn’t drop weights so I didn’t drop the bar while lifting. It meant lifting a bit less weight but I lifted then lowered the bar to the starting position. This corrected my deadlift and no more bloody shins. Hope this helps someone.

[@Klumsyy13]

Lower weight to perfect form is what you’re saying??

[@JackDagnaIs]

Great timing on the video bruv, been scraping my shins for the past few weeks, coincidentally I changed my que during this time.

[@glennpowell33]

Love the music. Keep it coming Alan. Thanks.

[@joshfontaine1511]

Its really cool to see so many people in a gym like untamed strength. There isnt too many powerlifting type gyms around places.

[@martinpalsson490]

Probably the best instruction on the deadlift so far. I'll always to remember to train on time ;)

[@bharathvrao691]

Quality content as usual.

[@slamminebrute]

This was stimulatingly useful to me. Thanks beard man

[@youman2678]

I've revisited your old videos a million times already. Please post more awesome content! You explained SS Squat-can we get a video on the deadlift and bench next? And then OHP?

[@constantinethomas6204]

I love you Thrall! Keep kicking ass. I'm learning alot from your videos. 🤟

[@josephmhines]

Pure gold Alan, thanks man!

[@bassemb]

Thank you. This is exactly what I needed to learn.

[@bronzethunderbeard1572]

Sick video, love the edits and music.

[@ugotschooled03]

Thanks man! This has been a problem for me, can’t wait to test these cues out!

[@morgydee]

Alan Thrall is THICCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC

[@aricpont3034]

Just started watching your videos the other day, man. You've got a new subscriber out of me!

[@xxthatgirlpossessed]

Super helpful! I struggle with my shin position being too forward and want to fix it asap.

[@bryanb9907]

Nevermind. I just watched your fixing your mistakes on the deadlift video. Thanks again.

[@mlem5550]

Thanks for the awesome vid man. My chins were pretty bad yesterday so I gotta fix that for sure!

[@danielomitted1867]

"Hey bro, you do crossfit" No im straight

[@dickjohnson5025]

YES!!

[@fitchefdave]

i can"t lmao

[@Varone26]

Hey Alan, think you can make a "How to properly tape your thumbs for hook grip" video one day?

[@aidanscovers]

You want to know the best way to hook grip? You don't.

[@rykehuss3435]

Jarmir Hung are you deadlifting 700 pounds? Didnt think so.

[@rykehuss3435]

Jarmir Hung Then you need to work on your grip strength.

[@canererbay8842]

How about you go into his channel and type "hook" into the search box under the "videos" tab and watch the first video that comes up? This shouldn't be so hard to think of.

[@Varone26]

Jesus somebody sounds salty. Ezze up a bit, its was just a question.

[@feruspriest]

I'm looking forward to when you produce more videos.

[@larvitardratini5965]

I don't have bloody shins but I pull back. I'll work on this

[@LandynVolaric]

Another great video, as always!

[@jarrodwhite2824]

Your video editing techniques have gotten A1

[@Disco2FiB]

Great explanations man. Very helpful!

[@federicocastillo7324]

Thanks Alan I realized this a couple of months ago!! Keep it up man! I too suffered from this

[@nicholasskridla2475]

OOHRAH! Thanks for the deadlift information. Will give the advice a try tomorrow. Semper Fi Brother

[@Shadowrpb]

Thank you for the informative video Alan

[@molonlabe459]

you are outstanding at explaining technique

[@francozappetti1681]

One of the most helpful videos of all time, thanks!!

[@RidingJapan]

congrats to 400k Alan

[@archiballz]

Loving the metal soundtrack. Keep it up!

[@mitch9225]

I learned how to deadlift initially from athlean X, but I’ve noticed a plateau as I’ve gotten stronger over time. Watching Alan do deadlifts is a work of art, so fucking clean man. Hope I can take some of this advice into the gym.

[@Handeee805]

Absolutely. Love Alan's channel, it's always entertaining and informative

[@wr9733]

great demo Alan. liked the music this time too

[@craig6]

Another great and informative video!

[@undrachevr]

You give out great information. Thank you

[@markaword1561]

Thanks coach!

[@mastergta23]

3:14 rip allan xD

[@sam_ch96]

Song is Dead Quiet - 'A Thousand Lives'! Loving it!!

[@esellanta]

Bro: "You do crossfit?" Alan: 'Nah, I just like lifting weights"

[@theswoletariat3479]

this is great. my buddy's DL was all weird and I couldn't figure out why. was trying to the lift his chest too early!

[@danieljonespt2876]

Awesome video! Cool tunes!

[@danny_coaster_credit5580]

great tips bro helped a lot!

[@Travis_661]

Thank you for these my deadlift form sucks and these are very helpful!

[@907Gooch]

Well done, sir.

[@genovaswitness154]

great video man

[@pablodelao4746]

Awesome video my brotha 🔥

[@HAL-dm1eh]

The third mistake for me was never made because in SS I read to push against the floor as well as pulling the weight. This queued my quads in a major way and put my knees into it at the bottom.

[@timt8027]

great vid! I now understand the last thing i'm doing wrong with deadlifting. Which is i don't let my shins come forward when i sit my hips down. This causes the gap of an inch to stay between the bar and my legs for the entire excercise which makes it harder than it has to be.

[@hannibalm090009]

amazing advice man, thanks

[@j.l.5966]

Best conventional deadlift breakdown in the history of the youtubes.

[@3300flavio]

Thanks Alan

[@PetteriSteigen]

Hope you make a video of the strongman competition this year to. The last one was so good.

[@inappropriatecontent2589]

Holy crap dude this was super helpful, thank you Ps. Respect for the double overhand grip with a heavy weight

[@Stinbeng]

Alan thralls videos are so good, instant like once uploaded

[@HierImNorden]

Lol I just came home with bloody shins, what a timing. Thanks for the tips!

[@davidpetty1457]

Thanks for the tips man👍I’m actually self conscious about my shins. I was always told its normal.

[@stevenyerry2209]

Loving the 60fps

[@kennethjohnson84]

Thank you!

[@dadbrodude5866]

Thanks man. Very helpful

[@sebastianvega4576]

Hi, Alan. Big fan of your channel, probably watched all your videos and I learned a great amount from them! Question: Do you plan to record (or ist there already and I missed it) a instructional video for perfoming lunges? Would be a great help! Sorry for beeing off-topic... Stay untamed and grettings from germany!

[@brendanmoore4833]

Thanks for your videos, Alan. They've helped me not be afraid of deadlifts and I'm making good progress. Keep up the good work

[@RPE11Strength]

Alan, a lot of people think the same way about lifting calluses in palms from deadlift. It would be great if you made a video about lifting calluses, how to avoid, take care and fix them.

[@Seth6097]

Very helpful thank you!

[@Ttlwar]

A shine saver!

[@tonyhumphreys809]

Your videos are wicked 👍🏻💪🏻

[@andrewthompson8675]

Hey Alan! I love your content. I have been lifting for about 5 years and I love it. I have just injured my SI. Could you cover how to recover from such an injury?

[@aarionlynch]

Thank you.

[@jk0r]

super helpful!

[@JL-yc3ux]

I cry manly tears whenever Alan posts a video ;_;

[@RageNg]

This is a great video.

[@matthijs5437]

thanks for the vid ! very helpful!

[@AlanThrall]

If bloody shins are cool, consider me Miles Davis Check out Dead Quiet, they rock! deadquiet.bandcamp.com

[@positiivi_teme]

Alan Thrall Have to say, a best timing ever. Novice lifter here and started to have this issue with more as bruising, than bleeding couple of dl sessions before and I wondered, am I doing something wrong or is it supposed to be like this. And apparently not! And how long 'till some hater comes out and says this is rippertoye deadlift, not good if no blood, wahwahwah. :D

[@signs80]

Alan Thrall I get and appreciate the reference

[@cney2125]

That’s the grossest thing I’ve ever heard

[@SignalBoost]

Can't find this song on their BandCamp page. Song Name?

[@Menello]

Alan Thrall man, these guys are awesome!

[@noloking]

This is one of your best videos yet as I lost track of how to do deadlifts properly You also introduced me to a great new band, but I wish you would tell us which song from them you used because I can't find it from the two soundtracks you promoted, lawls!

[@KatzProductionsYT]

Thank you for this video. George Leeman says to scrape your shins and fall back when you deadlift. That shit didn't work for me so I stuck to doing it normally.

[@dickjohnson5025]

I used to scrape my shins long before this video. Realized I was letting my shoulders fall back directly over the bar or a little behind. Gotta keep them in front of the bar with scapula over the bar. Makes a huge difference.

[@BamboolessPanda]

Hardest part of the deadlift for me is "squeezing my chest up." Does anybody have any (correct) cues to help this? Also, thanks as always for the great instruction, Alan. This video is probably one of my favorites from you recently, partially because its a subject that needed to be touched on, but more importantly (IMO), you point out that some of your older instruction videos have flawed cues/instructions (Ex.narrower stance on OHP rather than your current advice which is a shoulder width/ slightly wider stance) and correct them. This updated information is much appreciated, as I watched your early videos religiously when learning to lift, and recommended them to others. Keep up the great work!

[@eggboiwireguy6285]

BamboolessPanda nvm lmao I just watched that part of the vid

[@EasixBeats]

BamboolessPanda are your Harmstrings flexible enough bro? that was my fault a long time where i Had problems with "Cheat Up"

[@BamboolessPanda]

Thanks, I'll try this today.

[@vicka7544]

"Squeeze your shoulder blades" is the cue i give myself

[@zinoelgato]

Thanks for this video. You see I've never scraped my chins when I deadlift, and I heard so many times that if you don't scrap you chins you're doing it wrong. So next time I don't need to get into the same debate again but instead I'll just link them this video.

[@jakemode]

Thanks, I dedass thought that knee scraping was just a thing that happens when you deadlift. Definitely gonna be keeping all this info in mind for my next deadlifting session

[@5.7hemi79]

Freshman year I joined the powerlifting team at my high school and my coach told me I should be dragging the bar up my shins to the point they turn purple, I actually thought that was supposed to happen.

[@jakemode]

@@5.7hemi79 yikes. Im glad I stopped doing that when I did. I used to bleed when I did deadlifts lmao

[@dankent8650]

Awesome video as always! I worked with a Starting Strength Coach last year, and learned this very important technical aspect! I have a silly question-if you have the time; are you warming up with an empty Barbell. Using an Barbell complex?

[@Demeyez17]

That teeter totter bit was gold
