Insima picking up 315 like it’s the bar

[@theghostofpcs2391]

I always control the weight on the way down, because I have to be careful not to damage the floor...

[@Guy-dv9xw]

Same I made my own plates out of concrete so if I drop them they’ll break :/

[@danielmella4927]

If you're doing this, remember to scream while deadlifting to compensate for how little noise the plates make upon touching the ground. You need to let everyone know that you're lifting heavy weights

[@GDoggy-em2xc]

Slow eccentric deadlifts are becoming a game changer for me. When I do regular speed conventional deads my back does not round anymore like it used to. I pulled 102% for 1 rep at an RPE of 6. It was bloody amazing!

[@OFFSHOREDOUG]

Been telling idiots this for years. Did a complete a while ago and a couple people watching said I should of got an award for how gentle I put the weight down. I won my weight that day too.👍🏼

[@andrewtanczyk4009]

☝🏼 I thought it would increase your strength by lowering slowly.

[@OFFSHOREDOUG]

@@andrewtanczyk4009 it does. 2 reasons. You extend the time under stress when you lower the weight in a controlled manner and also you work a lot more muscle in the negative part than you do in the positive part.

[@jaghad]

@@OFFSHOREDOUG Reason 2 is absolute baloney. Tell me, what are the different muscles that you recruit lowering the bar compared to rasining the bar? Reason 1 is correct and that is the reason why controlling the eccentric movement in the DL is important. However, it is also fatiguing. Thus, the total tonnage you can lift in a session doing controlled eccentrics is going to be less.

[@OFFSHOREDOUG]

@@jaghad make it simple for you. Try doing a dumbbell curl and when you lower it slowly check if your tricep is tense?

[@meangene1980]

@@OFFSHOREDOUG one is a compound movement, the other isn't, not sure what you're talking about.

[@Tomara632]

Very eye opening about the lower back. Nobody mentioned this before. Thanks

[@MarkBellsPowerProject]

LFG Nsima!!!!!

[@meangene1980]

Do a show on the type of programming you like to do for yourself and general training protocols to follow when designing/implementing a training program. Thanks for the great content!

[@isavalla1935]

TLDR: because eddy coan did it and he’s pretty strong

[@benjamincartes9088]

Enough for me tbh

[@wigletron2846]

Thanks, I was bored 15 seconds into the video

[@juliangessa]

This is dope! Thank you!

[@amitisthegreatestever3490]

Yes i want tk see more video i just taught this to my Clients yesterday

[@miggs165]

Good info. I really like the music 💪🏾

[@Alvaro_Athletics]

Nsima mate, your fucking rear delt drives me crazy...insane!

[@hassan.n5464]

I always control my deadlift on the way down because I don't want to break the concrete at my home gym 😂😅

[@sakuragihanamichi7415]

Same bro

[@sethsablack0722]

Very good video!

[@meekrodriguez6438]

Dope video

[@bryanb9907]

I have always controlled my deadlift down. If you can't set it down, you shouldn't pick it up.

[@flo582]

TLDR Better positioning and more time under tension.

[@bilalguc5642]

You are a genius I am really gonna try this thank you! I actually had a different question like I have 2 leg sessions in a week and in one session I do Conventional and the other Sumo is that a bad thing cause some people told me that I shouldn't be doing that so what is your advice for me? 😁💪

[@zapid6733]

I've always controlled the eccentric, even when I PR. I've recently heard though that hamstring tears and lower back injuries nearly always happen during the eccentric on a deadlift. Is this not really an issue if you're like me and always controlled the eccentric contrary to randomly starting doing it so you've built up the muscles and joint or are there always a risk?

[@oldnatty61]

So basically do the dead lift the right way.

[@simplereefer]

Love the content!

[@millemaolchannel8608]

Great video

[@saint_pyre]

excellent

[@charleschristian5628]

I've just started doing this but I performed it using the conventional deficit deadlift. Is that okay to do as well? also will this technique build my obliques mine are already overdeveloped.

[@cjmack23ok]

Jacked with a built in tan 😂 Excellent video dude has great camera presence 👌

[@OwGash]

Always done that, it feels weird to slam

[@fitnessbasadoenlaevidencia5378]

Thanks

[@sourikray1997]

0:02 HOY!

[@andrewb.9815]

Dudes who let gravity take over their drop are just lazy ego-lifters. The weight beats them so they just give up and let gravity take control.

[@RyanAl92]

Some of the world's best powerlifters and strongmen drop their deadlifts in training and in meets. Don't insult when you don't know much about anything.

[@eternallyminded7]

Damn, how much weight is that? Looks like well over my max and he's just talkin like it's nothin!😧 Also, I'm just glad to have gotten up without injury when I do heavy deadlifts, I feel like goin down slow may be pushing my luck! 😅

[@runthefuture]

Seriously, looks like 315 and I need about 4 warm up sets before I get to that. Gotta step my game up!

[@quokka4329]

That's a deadlii RDL combo, yeah?

[@dudewithcomedy1]

stronger in 5 minutes, D-bol

[@danielgarza1395]

Bigger biceps in 5 minutes ??

[@ironcathedral4723]

I also have no desire to sit and drop the weight on every set when I’m done with my reps I like to do the eccentric but I do have a question since they put this video out I have watched I don’t know how many super training videos of them deadlifting And I’m not gonna go back and double check this because there’s just too many videos but It sure seemed that an awful lot of their deadlift videos at least in the past they dropped the weight at the top quite a bit Just saying that because I find it kind of funny that they are coming out of this video now but if there’s one thing that has irritated me over the years about deadlift videos It’s all the people that will tell you to do the eccentric but then you watch all of their dead the videos They drop the weight at the top constantly almost every set couple big-name people that I love watching their videos at least I used to anyway now I don’t watch them as much Because they have turned into most of the other people doing stupid shit just to get views instead of putting out quality content Big boy and Larry wheels and the list can go on and on and on of the morons that think they need to drop the weight when they’re done with a set anyway hate on me all you want those are my two cents

[@Leester-70]

If you want to lift for competition or some personal goal then do deadlifts. If you're lifting for general fitness and health deadlifts can (and should) be skipped. I don't think the risk/reward ratio over the long term justifies doing them for a person living a "normal" life. I'm a 50 y/o lifter been doing it since around 25. I haven't included deadlifts in my routine for at least 15 years and it's made no difference in my overall fitness and mobility. There are much safer ways to hit those same muscles.

[@bendtaaen63]

Some people disagree on this totally. Deadlift is a natural movement pattern and could be trained safely. Overdoing it may cause long term damage to the joints(As do a lot of other powerlifting exersises when pounded year after year). When you exclude deads in your program you miss out on a great powerbuilding-exercise in my opinion (Recreational powerlifter - 60 years of age - Wouldnt do without them ). But to each his own. Have a great day.

[@Leester-70]

@@bendtaaen63 I've yet to find an opinion people don't disagree on. And again, I was not talking about powerlifting - that would be a competition or a personal goal. Most of us aren't powerlifters nor have any desire to be. I was talking specifically about lifting for health and fitness. You don't need to deadlift to keep good hip mobility and posterior chain strength. My goal is not to rack up numbers on a bar, it's to be able to navigate a flight of stairs at 80.

[@bendtaaen63]

@@Leester-70 Powerlifter :-) I am not that strong. I just want to be (a little )stronger to keep my body working as old-age comes creeping :-) . I strongly believe that strength training will benefit me here. And I enjoy the powerlift exercises and have build my program around them. Mark Bell (as well as many others)is a great source of info regarding this. I hope you reach your goal :-)

[@Leester-70]

@@bendtaaen63 I strength train. To me strength training and powerlifting are two different things. But it doesn't really matter, deadlifts or not we're both way ahead of the average 50-60 year old man who sits on the couch doing nothing.

[@RyanAl92]

You "strength" train but you don't do deadlifts? Sorry, bud. You're not so smart.

[@michaelcraelius1082]

He doesn't look like Mark Bell!

Reason #6- you go to a cringe commercial gym

[@quinlansee1]

you demonstrating poor technique but using 315 is hilarious

[@alessio7375]

If I do slow as fuck eccentric I can say bye bye heavy weight, bullshit tip
