deadlift

Ever since reading the book "Building the Gymnastic Body" I was amazed at the claims by the author. The book was written by a gymnastics coach by the name of Christopher Sommer. He stated that one of his students deadlifted 181kg/400lbs on his first attempt. The most impressive thing is that the...

Hi, I'm Alex, I've been practicing with kettlebells for almost a year with some months off because of a mild left shoulder injury and problems with hemmorrhoids. While on pause I did the stretches from S&S and shoulder focused excercises for recovery, I've also been to a physical therapist a...

Hi there guys! I've been training for about 3 years now, mostly crossfit and weightlifting. I started from being just a computer nerd into pulling 190kg deadlift and 160kg squat within 2 years. But, after that I could never go higher, and now I have problems lifting that weight aswell...

Greetings brothers and sisters in strength! In the last few months I've been working on my deadlift (I want to compete in TSC). I've been recording most of them and I've chosen some to show you. In the videos, it can be seen that my lower back isn't perfect flat. I've been trying to improve...

Hello everyone! I had a question about the proper set up for the DL. I've seen the lift taught in two ways and I was wondering which of the two is taught at SFL. 1. Some teach that bar should be pulled upward. The bar should remain in contact with your shins, but it should not scrape them to...

Hello! I was hoping to get a form check on on my Squat and DL this week. I've included the links below: DL: Squat: Thanks!

Hello everyone, I am new here. Can I get a DL form check please? My lower back seems to round a bit immediately right after I pull the weight off the floor. The rounding isn't as bad as it looks like on a cat, but it does make me feel like my back isn't tight enough. What should I do? Thanks...

Few years back, Fabio discussed his hypertrophy program -> If It Flies Right, It Looks Right: My Journey to a Bodybuilding Competition | StrongFirst I am hoping to give his program a try but all with KBs. He mentions near the end of the post here that the program can be done with just KB->...

Have finally decided to log my training. Which I should have done ages ago. Current program is S&S. Today’s session: Swings: 10*10 Emom for 10mins. TGU: 6 each side within 10 mins. Had yesterday off so felt fresh so pushed the TGUs. Swings feeling crisper than ever. Have decreased the...

I am recovering from a hip injury and wanted to make sure my deadlifts weren't an issue. 100kgx5 (Max 145) I want to compete in a powerlifting meet in a couple months and my deadlift is lacking. Wanted to know if there is anything I can do.

Hi. I'm planning to start Vodka and Pickles and I'm considering how to implement upper body exercises. One of my conception is to add the following: Dips (weighted and unweighted) Push-ups (4-8-12-16-20-16-12-8-4 Pyramid performed 3-4 times a week according to this plan) Pull-ups Advance PIKE...

Hi, I would be happy if somebody would give me feedback on the following conception of combining deadlift with Q&D. I have struggled to make them both work together but doing swings and lifts 5-6 times a week would surely lead to an injury, or at least to overtraining. It was not easy to solve...

Hi, First of all, I would like to write that I really love Deadlifting. I've started my journey with this power exercise from PTTP about four weeks ago and went from 5x220 to 5x275 lbs. Everything is going well but there is something that bothers me. The things are I feel a slight pain in my...

Hi everyone. I wanted to get your thoughts on this guy's deadlift technique. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrR1gkZGbsU Sorry, I don't know how to embed the video. In my opinion: his legs are too wide his a#@ is too low - it's like a squat, not a deadlift on the way down the bar does not...
