It's DEADlift. Rip says to not bounce because you're getting rid of the most essential part of the deadlift

um anon I thought touch and go was cheating

Kinda related.
I havet a really hard time getting getting my core tensed up good while deadlifting unless I breathe in at the top.
As an example
>Tense core at top, drop the bar all they way down (not bouncing), lift it
Ez
>Let bar down, take a new breath, tense core, lift,
Hard as fuck, can't lift close as much and as comfortably.
I know I'm a retard at explaining but any tip?

you're supposed to pause and reset your form, so the tip is to lift less but have better form throughout the entire exercise and then lift more the next time you're in the gym.
I don't trust touch and go because at heavier weight you will undoubtedly break form dropping the weight down.
They are literally called deadlift because you lift the weight from a dead position.
But if you feel better doing bouncelifts then go for it.

Yeah I know I'm not supposed to, it's just that it makes it so much easier for me. Even If I completely let the tension in the bar go (while still bracing).
T think my issue is just that I can't brace properly while bent over.
Guess I'll just have to de-load a bit and work on bracing somehow
