What do you prefer /fit/izens?

Pause
Pause or it's not a deadlift.
Pause.
You're cheating yourself, otherwise.
>>35066192
depends if you want to get stronger or are doing crossfit aka cardio
>>35066192
Dead. Lift. The weight should be dead on the floor before the next rep.
If you don't pause it turns into RDL
Pause, readjust grip and form and lift
Deadlift
The weight is pulled from a dead stop
Touch and go yields a chance of loss of tightness when you bounce the weight (and yes, you are bouncing the weight)
Very good, thanks. I've been tap and go so far and paused for the first time today and feels far better.

Yeah pussies confirmed
"Pause" if your form is shit and you have to readjust after every rep. Touch n go if you actually wanna do more than 5 reps and make some muscle gains.
>>35066271
If you are using a weight that you are consistently pulling over 5 reps at a time, you are not using enough weight. There is too much form breakdown involved from fatigue to allow yourself to lift 'heavy' for more than 5 reps
>muscle gains
Not really the primary goal from deadlifts for a lot of people either. You're better off using other movements to target muscles if you're at this point
Your argument is like saying you should do cleans from the floor by returning it to the floor and using touch and go for it for muscle gains
Tap and go for warm ups
Pause to readjust grip and footing for proper sets.
>>35066359
You shouldn't readjust your grip ever during a set
White knuckle and don't let go until it's over
As for footing, if you're negative is controlled with good form (exact opposite movement of picking it up), you should be returning the bar to the same place, eliminating the need for significant movement of feet.

>not wanting muscle gains
Really, why would you even do them? Functional strength? Lol
>>35066220
this
I completely let go and re-setup as if it's my first go. I feel like I'm the only one that does this.
>>35066318
>>35066378
Where are you perceiving these muscle gains to be?
>>35066376
Eh, it's not really that I need it.
It's just something I started doing to mentally prepare for picking heavy shit off the ground. Probably a hold-out from when my form was shitty enough to need it.
Is there a reason why it's bad to let go during a set?
As in, should I try to un-train that behaviour?
>>35066192
Pause.
There's a place for TNG and a lot of strong people utilize it. But start and learn to pause before doing more TNG, TNG can lead to bad habits in new lifters
>>35066376
>White knuckle and don't let go until it's over
lel no reason to do this, readjust if necessary
>>35066411
no it's perfectly fine unless you use it as an excuse to take a 15s pause "readjusting your grip"
>>35066220
Holy shit I never understood why it's called that until now. You just taught me something, anon. Th-thanks.

that arm chair mighty comfy eh?
>doing deadlift and not being an IPL powerlifter
why?
>>35066220
>implying the weight is ever alive
Pause, SS said to do it like that.
I like setting up between reps too, that way i know everythings lined up safely.
I like to switch it up once and a while because I think both are fine as long as your form doesnt go to shit
Just pick one and stick with it honestly, not going to be a drastic difference one way or another.
>>35066192
well i have to use hex plates so its not worth the time it takes to reset after pausing so i only do singles or tap and go
>>35066271
>deadlifts
>more than 5 reps
Nice back mate. Sorry it's gone.
