@@ProfessionalWeakGuy can I send you my deadlift over insta or something? I think I’m following all these steps and I can’t figure out why I still feel it in my lower back a lot. Even with 135. I’m 18 and I can deadlift 425 but I stopped completely for the last few months cause my back hurts so much when I do. It didn’t used to and I’m fine squatting so it must be my technique but I don’t see what’s wrong:/

Chris: *really calm and zen* Allan Thral: DO NOT MOVE THE BARBEL!

[@mightyfastfeline1703]

I respect this video, teaches the basics, what this video just doesn't teach you or at least mention is what you actually do when you start lifting 85% RPE, here is most likely what will happen: scenario 1: you have really good trunk control and very good start and you have a slight natural round, and you leg press and the beginning of the movement, hinge towards the end ; scenario 2(most often): you have 0 trunk control and you don't even leg press at the beginning of the movement you just "Pull". Here's what should've been added to the video : 1: How to teach your body to start in a "boxed" position, increasing tension in 4 main areas, Calves, Glutes , Mid section(abs and erectors) and lats. 2: Provide different types of alternatives, such as: Stiff Legged Deadlift(helps with glute, lat and erector activation for mid body tension), Deficit Deadlift(extremely important for people that cannot que their start of their lift, such as engaging your abductors and glutes, calves and increasing internal pressure and if you just cannot pull the weight of the ground) , Paused Deadlifts(helping wiith overall bracing and especially training your core) / also add the paused dealifts on either stiff legged / your normal deadlifts or paused deadlifts(don't lift more than 90%RPE on deficit as this shit is fucking terrifying when you head to 3+reps above) Also one important point that I think should be addressed, toe positioning should be place in a position where the glutes and your abductors are engaged, you can also thinkg of pusing your elbows outwards at the beginning of the lift minimising knee valgus(knee caving) I understand that these videos are probably meant to be short but I 100% can say that maybe by adding a few minutes for some short explanations would've helped, unfortunately we do not all look to powerlift and lift heavy ass weight or progress so quick, for someone such as me I prefer longevity and slow but proper progression(3-4 weeks adding 2.5kg after testing my rep ranges). People also don't realise that recovery between your intensity training is important, for xampleI have noticed that having my heaving deadlift sessions such as 80%-95%RPE intensitiy on a monday followed up by a thursday volume day where I do a deficit paused deadliift at rpe of 70-80% is more important than deadlifting twice a week at same intensity. (it will also depend on your split, I do Pull Push Legs for example, so if you do Upper Lower it might be a good idea to up the intensity) TLDR: PWG should've mentioned different types of alternatives / recovery periods between sessions and also go a bit more in depth into bracing as it is the main thing that people mess up.

[@dvxv4016]

what do you refer to as rpe? RPE for me stands for Rate of Perceived Exertion, so it doesn't make any sense. Do you mean one rep max?

[@crackedoutofmymind-h8m]

​@@dvxv4016he meant rpe 7 means 3 reps in reserve in monke it means 3 reps before failure

[@commandblock2804]

I genuinely enjoyed every single second of this truly informative video. Thanks, Chris!

[@ProfessionalWeakGuy]

glad you enjoyed

[@dablazarus7303]

Thank you for mentioning that lats help stabilize the bar during the deadlift. So many people think it's not really a back exercise, and they don't realize that your lats are helping control bar shift and prevent it from drifting away from your during the lift. Yes, your glutes and quads are the primary movers, but the role of the lats keeping the bar close makes it so your glutes and quads and can do what they need to do as efficiently as possible.

[@huntercano4333]

[@mathewfraker5978]

I've got up to 600 sumo with straps but switched to conventional recently. Your hook grip inspired me, but I have a faster setup with mixed grip. I liked how to explained the pits to pockets and demonstrated how keeps lats engaged and breaking the weight off the floor with a leg press, shows how you implement a good bar path

[@majestytd]

this tutorial is so in depth and covers damn near everything. would love to see more videos like these of other exercises

[@JonDeth]

*The more prominent your yoke muscles naturally develop, the more you will have some upper back rounding and it's physically impossible not to.* I also do a lot of loaded carries for massive distances and sometimes in the sand, so there's a point where you round the yoke to engage more trap and lat assistance as you progress in distances and potentially add or remove weight with each lap. I'll only be doing 85lbs total for over the length of a football field and back in the sand, so rounding in the last of the distance *is correct form and technique.* Now a *stone carry* or similar like a barrel lift, you want your back as straight as physically possible through the entire range of motion. *The form police assume we're ALL lifting as heavy as possible as often as possible and constantly chasing new PR's, but I am just a gym and outdoors athlete which makes them both wrong and inherently stupid.*

[@silatguy]

Nice tutorial. Most beginners sometimes forgot not to get all grabby with the bar so that's a good reminder. Also that brace technique took me years to get! It's so easy but most people just don't have an awareness of how to do it or what it should feel like. That is why I started focusing more on inhaling through my nose and pushing it into the stomach, it finally makes easy sense and if you do it right it almost feels like you put on a life vest.

[@IrvinCabezas]

The bracing did it for me. I always avoided this exercise because I felt I was doing it wrong and also had the impression I could hurt myself in the process. But the bracing keeps me in form, it feels natural and no longer like I tend to bend forward. Thanks a lot ! I will still do it with caution and low weight while I get completely acquainted with the movement.

[@rediff9819]

Young man, you are blessed with great genetics. Your deadlifting anatomy is just perfect: Long gorilla arms, relatively shorter legs which enables you to lift more in a upright position giving you the strongest stance at the start of the lift. So, technically you are rack pulling off the floor which makes your lift comparatively easier than someone with shorter arms who has to bend over with his torso almost parallel to the floor making the lift way harder. Happy training!

[@ghostmutt4265]

Man I was thinking that exact thing. This dude looks like he's doing a rack pull. I'm nearly horizontal to the floor when I start my deadlift
