Always appreciate content like this. I’m 38 and am a 75kg powerlifter in USAPL mostly. Your videos are no bullshit to the point, and that’s what resonates with me and others looking for good information to take to the gym and apply on the platform. Not trying to gas you up, but I genuinely watch your videos and will take that info and apply it to my program. I noticed doing the pause squats with a slower decent helped a TON and I can attribute those alone to adding about 50lbs to my comp max in 6 month time. Keep up what you’re doing, don’t change, and keep lifting those massive numbers you hit.

Wow. No lie, this content is so good. Especially the info is on point. This is literally coaching me to break my 455 plateau. I have been so confused about how to train Deads and was exactly the person who thought it was taxing. I have a feeling my deadlift is gonna blow up because my squat is also 455. The RDLs and rigidity training with slight round and technique has already got me pulling different

I would love to see a follow up to this showing cues on how to engage the glutes in the deadlift and showing cues on how to keep the spine rigid and build isometric strength. Love the video very informative and love busting the myth about this

Appreciate the content. Honestly, keeping the spine rigid also prevents injuries in the spine. Unfortunately one of my disks is very stiff already at age 29, because I listened to the wrong people when I was younger, who told me bracing is bad. It changes everything. And don’t forget about the neural drive. You get waaaay stronger the more you keep yourself rigid and tight EVEN ON THE BENCH. Secrets many people are not willing to talk about. Agree with nowadays social media culture :( Have a good one!

Honestly this really gave me a different outlook on how I’ve been programming that my log book has been hinting for along time. I always thought I recovered from deads terribly but really only when I would get bored with squatting and put it on the back burning my recovery for deads and progress would take a noticeable increase. To the point when I could do the same or more volume on my conventional pulling. Thanks

Awesome to see you getting back to this type of content and love to have some confirmation of what I've been suspecting, that deadlifts are not *really* any more fatiguing than squats if you do them right. Some of your older videos about deadlift technique were massively game-changing for me, especially the ones about slack pulling and fixing low back rounding.

This was brilliant. I can't pinpoint exactly why, but the way you explained the leverages made more sense to me than what I've heard before. I definitely understand these lifts better now. It's funny, but it's taken this video for me to realise why 1RM calculators just don't work for my squat, but work fine for my DL. My squat form changes LOADS when using heavier weights, but I don't think my DL form changes that much. Basically - I lean forwards WAY more, purely intuitively, when using heavier loads and can lift WAY more.

ill anecodtally confirm what you said here, based on my experience..as someone who used to have sort of bad deadlift form (which is on my youtube, I dont think I have any videos from years I perfected it on here but its on insta) . I no longer see GRINDS and I dont get fatigued and deadlift near max on a very regular basis. I went weeks pulling 540-555 my max is probably 585. One major factor for my spinal fatigue was having a slight anterior pelvic tilt on both squat and deadlift, it was signifcantly worse on squats and so squatting fatigued me way more, because just that it would fatigue my spine and limit my volume

In 2010, when my body weight was approximately 60kg, I began doing conventional deadlifts with a weight of around 90kg. I exclusively perform conventional deadlifts. It wasn’t until 2016 that I started focusing on enhancing my deadlift. At that time, I was able to lift over 140kg for multiple reps while weighing roughly 62kg. Despite my efforts, my deadlift didn’t improve much, and my personal record for a single rep maxed out at 180kg in January 2020. The pandemic (February 2020 to May 2021) forced me to halt my deadlift training as I couldn’t visit the gym. However, in May 2021, I resumed my conventional deadlifts in my home gym, managing to lift up to 155kg for 8 to 10 reps. Since then, I’ve been consistently improving my conventional deadlifts. By the end of April 2022, I achieved a personal record of 200kg for a single rep max in conventional deadlifts. In April 2023, I further improved this record to 220kg. Just last week, I reached a new two-rep max personal record with 227.85kg. Currently, my body weight is approximately 62.75kg. It’s important to note that I’m not a powerlifter and I use straps during my deadlift training. I’ve gained a wealth of knowledge from watching videos by top powerlifters and strongmen on KZitem. I'm truly grateful for all the advice they've given on deadlifts.

Ha ha ok enjoyed that, very informative, it’s true people will max out on the deadlift rather than the squat because the squat can bury you. Interestingly I notice more women squat and deadlift in gyms I frequent than men. They have definitely become more accepted exercises which is great.

I know what you are saying is true at least to a degree because I'm more of an overhead press guy, and I've gotten just as beat up from being folded over on heavy front squats as I have from heavy deadlifts. I've also felt pretty messed up from my form breaking down on push presses, and even strict presses. If your spine gets moved by a load it messes with you. It's like the erectile dysfunction of lifting.
