lmao backlet
post body gayet
deadlift is not a back exercise you absolute moron
Yeah because you can totally lift a load that's attached at the shoulder joint using your ass, hams, and quads without transmitting force through the back (which requires isometric engagement of the entire back musculature)
Man you dumb
I hope you have health insurance
imagine being this stupid to somehow think that
1) deadlifts will make you need healthcare rather than prevent
2) that ~~*doctors*~~ can do anything helpful for backs
If you build the deadlift you will build a thick back, guaranteed. Is it the best way to do so if that's your only goal? Almost definitely not
Deadlifts give you that sexy line down your spine. also, a good ass
squats do that too
wait, they do? Are you sure?
good ass yes but that back wasn't build by deadlifting
You should ideally not be moving your back during a deadlift, so you're essentially doing an erector spinae isometric hold.
It's funny when people say deadlifts are back builders when the deadlift just isometrically works out the back. Just imagine if you actually contracted your erector spinae and put it through its range of motion under load.
This board is fricking trash. morons like you, fat people hate, and endless incel posting. Inb4 post body. Even that’s become a cringe reply.
you won't be able to call me an incel after I'm done raping you in your mouth and butthole, will you
gayboi
>load biceps: great, get stronger!
>load quads: great, get stronger!
>load back: ACK! YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO LOAD THE BACK!
man OP you dumb as frick the back is just a system of joints and muscles like any other part of the body and to get it strong it must be loaded, simple as
The back loading in the deadlift is desirable.
if you feeling your back on deadlifts I have bad news for you
Did I mention anything about feeling in my post? The deadlift requires engagement of the back musculature for force transmission.

>ze deadlift requires engagement of ze back musculature for force transmission.
>you won't get big erector and traps from having a strong deadlift
Shut the frick up moron.
I get big erections when doing deadlifts
ngmi
Damn Alex Jones got strong.
The literal chad in your photo considers deadlifts to have a poor stimulus to fatigue ratio, and minimizes their volume and frequency in his recommendations
Something that people should keep very clear in compound movements is that you never go all out on them. You'll still have great gains from them since you still get a lot of mechanical tension because you can lift shittons of weight.
Specially with deadlifts. Your lower back is probably the weakest link in the lift, so you have to stop it before your form starts breaking down.
I'm getting mad ass, hamstrings and strength gains from doing deadlifts again.
You’ve never gone all out on bench? Anon are you moronic?
You don't lift at all.
I do
The difference between you and me is that I do efficient exercises with good form and I push until failure
You on the other hand do the homosexual showoff ego lifting and will end up on some wheelchair in a few years
We are the not the same
You don't lift at all.
>efficient exercise
Sounds like the deadlift; uses more muscle mass than any other lift (maybe except for the squat) and you only need to do a single set of 5 every week or two.
Of course you'd know that if you actually lifted.
if you want to build the most mass possible, do nothing but farmer's walks and suitcase walks for long periods of time.
I guarantee you that your body will grow more than whatever your current routine will do.
>just carry stuff and u get strong
City homosexuals lmao
If you exercised with good form then you wouldn't be complaining about DLs causing back pain you fricking autist. Post form or shut up.
i know right lol
i don't think i've ever even tried deadlifting and i look fine (ignore the posture)
yes deadlift will fix your fricked up neck
you homosexual completely lost touch with reality
I DON'T GIVE A FRICK WHAT YOU ANTI-DEADLIFT gayS SAY. I WILL DO THIS LIFT WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT. FRICK YOU.
single leg romanian deadlifts, you can massively reduce the weight and use dumbbells for added grip gains
Anyone who says that the following are not worth it, "too dangerous", or otherwise unnecessary need to just hop on estradiol and be the real woman their mind is telling them that they are.
- OHP
- Squats
- Deadlifts
- Bench Press
- Pull Ups
- Dips
Frick off. The best workout is the one you’ll do. Forcing someone to do 4 lifts they hate is going to make them quit the gym after three months. The real advice is try every lift for each muscle and pick your favorites so that you hit everything. Being optimal doesn’t mean shit if you can’t keep doing your workouts cause you hate it so much.
Yngbaw.
This, all the problems stem from being morons that can't do an exercise right or being crippled morons with shit mobility, usually both.
deadlifts should not be done traditional style imo. I deadlift sumo with very little pressure on my back. I do it because I love the exercise, its movement and the forearm gains.
I also do higher volume and lower weight.
currrently 4x10 at 88kg
>pontificates how to deadlift
>thinks loading the back is bad
>currrently 4x10 at 88kg
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH
its light weight m8
>Sumo
>everyone saying sumo is cheat codes and doesn't count
If that's so why do the top levels of powerlifting competition go almost exclusively conventional as the body weight (and weight lifted) climbs, despite the fact that there is no regulation on whether sumo or conventional is used?
Wouldn't they all be doing sumo if it was such an advantageous stance?
If you just think about what makes sumo easier it should be clear why it does benefit heavier guys as much. Sumo is all about 2 things:
1. getting the bar closer to the hips and thus reducing the moment arm from bar to the primary fulcrum (hips).
2. Reducing the ROM.
Both are accomplished by standing as wide as possible and thus getting the legs out of the way so the hips can get close.
If you're a real big guy it doesn't work as well:
1. You can't get relatively as wide as the little guys because the plates are in the way.
2. Bigger guys have bigger stomachs and hips which limits how close the bar can get.
You're welcome for the explanation. Anyone who doesn't compete should never pull sumo because it doesn't make you as strong as conventional since you're overcoming a smaller moment arm over a smaller ROM.
Doesn't benefit heavier guys as much*
more muscle = more strength = no need to cheat
small = weak = needs to cheat
The top 120+ deadlift that year was Ray Williams, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't do sumo just because he thinks its gay.
>4x 10
>88kg
>sumo
Are you a woman?
why are they spaced apart like that?
Bc some Black person stole my rogue collars from the gym at my apartment when I was on vacation.
this is why I don't care about deadlifts. I want to be big AND strong and complete DYELs stand around in the gym cranking 6pl8 like it's nothing. Complete stick bugs and fat c**ts. I see jacked guys do a dl occasionally but it's NEVER a big focus at all. Far from it
Share fizeek
I hit 345lb PR fighting demons late last night
My test is surging. Vitality is coursing through my veins. My back minimally sore, and it shoots my gains through the roof with as little as one main workout every 10 days, and supplemental cardio and lightweight work on off days.
Maybe I’m not the norm, maybe your test is low, but deadlifts seem pretty great and the accomplishment after hitting a new PR in any lift let alone my deadlift is indescribable
Deadlifts are the GOAT exercise for overall muscular development. Traps, delts, lats, hamstrings, entire posterior chain. Never as sore as when I hammer some heavy deads.
Whoever is making these threads is either
1. A salty egolifter who wrenched his back trying to lift a moronic amount of weight right out the gate
2. The same homosexual who was making those "dips are pointless and grind your shoulders into dust" threads a few months back
split squats are better, the reason why is that you can do them with dumbbells. Dumbbells > barbells in terms of total muscular development because you have to engage your entire body including your forearms and scapulae to stabilize the dumbbells, the unilateral aspect adds a motherfricking shit ton of extra work from all your lateral and medial stabilizing muscles like adductors abductors and all the those anterior and posterior ankle muscles.
Single leg romanian deadlift
split squats
regular squats
all you need for leg day that will build your lower back.
No. Split squats are great for the stabilization, but you can lift more, something like 20-30% more, with a barbell and engaging both sides of ur body. You can do a split squat with a barbell, but for the sake of convenience I'd l that exercise in particular is easier with dumbells.
Who gives a shit about lifting more if it's the same end result and inherently safer?
You are using improper technique.
people either do deadlifts because they're fun, or because they need to be good at them for powerlifting or strongman competitions
nobody will ever say that deadlifts are a necessary lift for hypertrophy, or that their risk to reward ratio is beneficial for a non-competitive lifter
i personally prefer RDLs and good mornings
You need to do lots of dumbbell and barbell rows before you should do heavy weight deadlifts.
"Deadlifting isn't worth the risk"
-Every professional deadlifter
yet IST disagrees, we should let them know
who has said that besides oberst?
Agreed. Deadlifts are for morons. But then again All forms of powerlifting is. Lifting with a bar is too. Freeweight master race.
Agreed, powerlifting is for cheaters who want to look and seem as strong as possible in the most absolutely ideal conditions, i.e. lifting in the tiniest ranges of movement for each joint and muscle involved, and working them in their absolutely most mechanically optimal position. They don't want to look good, they don't want functional strength... they want to leverage technicalities and mechanical trickery for optimal "performance" in their "sport" which happens to be mindfrickingly boring and stupid. I would rather watch the WNBA

deadlifts are the ultimate pointless ego lift, but its true crime is that even as an ego lift it is not particularly impressive or cool or skilled-looking, and in fact it might be the single most annoying lift to be around. The women who deadlifters think are miring them are actually looking over because they're just fricking annoyed that you keep throwing onto the ground your bar loaded with 275 like you just repped out 600lbs. No one likes being around deadlifters-- even if you have headphones on, the shit being thrown or dropped onto ground can be felt by anyone nearby.
As an exercise, it's pretty bleak. If you consider each joint involved in the deadlift movement in isolation, they are each being run through (generously) 1/3 of their total ranges of motion. The hips, the knees, and the ankles are moving very little compared to squats or most other leg/hips exercise. And what's worse is that each are basically functioning in their most mechanically optimal position, and all their associated muscles are also in their most ideal mechanical positions and being flexed through a small ROM. If you think about it, this defies the very spirit of lifting to get strong or big, which paradoxically demands that muscles are worked inefficiently or outside their most ideal parameters. Remember: metabolic and mechanical "efficiency" would have us sitting immobile all day for a lifestyle with minimal expenditure of energy. Lifting is about artificially inefficient movements/conditions to get stronger and bigger. This is also why powerlifting is gay and for people with gay priorities.
And the final crime: deadlifts builds are fricking ugly. Deadlift-focused lifters have the quintessential T-rex build that everyone makes fun of in people who exclusively do SS. There is nothing attractive or redeeming that it works or builds. Weird chunky oversized butt and upper thighs, underdeveloped calves/lower legs, underdeveloped upper body, underdeveloped arms. Disgusting!
