Can we have a serious thread about deadlifts?
I always see
>deadlifts
bait threads, but how about a real one for once?
Is it necessary? Is it inherently better than other more isolated lifts? What would be comparable/are there any substitutes? Is the snap city express train a myth? What exactly does it work out (either strengthen or make more aesthetic)?
Do you guys do it?
>>37901708
If you take your form seriously, snap city is a myth
>>37901754
You'd have to be an oblivious idiot to go snap city -- it's true.
If you're going to sit around and do only one exercise -- do dead lifts.
Or, dead lift into OHP if you count that
>>37901708
I can practically hear gandalf saying you shall not pass
>>37901708
>>37901799
Oh, and it's about as close to a full body workout as you can get with one exercise -- even your biceps get some love, and you legs get the attention they deserve

Is it weird to see pictures of yourself slapped all over this hell hole?
You simply can't compete with test release from high dls.

ye, but it's kinda my own fault.
>>37901835
Not accurate. See >>37901827 instead.
>>37901827
>>37901810
So what do you think about DLs? Objectively, as obviously powerlifting basically requires it.
Do you think it's necessary for all kinds of lifters, with any goal in mind, should deadlift? If not, is it recommended even so? Any substitutes?
>>37901827
hi sweetie ;)
>>37901827

>>37901810
I DL with the bar at the middle of my feet. That is correct, yes? If I bring it in too close before bending down I feel like I'm "squatting" the DL.
>>37901873
pullups and rows target your rear delts.
See this for more info https://desuarchive.org/fit/thread/37805873/
>>37901892
>>37901853
<3
>>37901905
Yes, that is correct. The point is that, after you lower your shins to touch the bar, you should pull with your lats.

"There's no reason to be alive if you can't deadlift"
>>37901923
Since you are a mentally ill man who ruses other men into dating him and thinking hes actually a she, how do you sleep at night knowing the only way to find affection is through deception?
>>37901923
that pull-up thread is gr8, but unless I missed it it doesn't say which one you should do
If I'm not mistaken, wide-grip pullups are hardest, close grip chin-ups are easiest (most bicep activation), but lat activation is about the same, right?
To me, that means there's no reason to do pull-ups.. am I wrong? Do you have a preference?
pls help my little piggy nosed qt
>>37901708
If there was only one lift it would be the diddly.
>>37901708
Is it ok to "drop" the bar during DL? I mean, I lift it off the floor slowly, but return it to the floor much faster, without actually letting go. Am I missing out on gains or does everyone do this?
>>37901955
Don't bother asking it. It will kill itself soon
Gotta do deads, kid
trappy, what qualifies you to be such a self proclaimed expert on lifting?
this is 4 months off one of trappys shitty routines
>>37901975
Control it but it doesn't matter too much. It's rude to straight drop it.
>>37901964
Apparently nuetral or "hammer" grip pullups put the biceps and lats in the strongest mechanical position to do the most weight. Depends on proportions but this os generally true for most
>>37901996
Perfect
>>37901996
you look like trap
>>37901923
trappy, what do you think about the Fierce 5 novice routine
>trolls derailing a good thread
Good job summer/fit/
>>37901975
Lowering the bar is the eccentric part of the lift and you're cheating yourself by skipping it. It's like doing hill sprints where you only run down and never up.
>>37902058
>trappy thread
>good
>>37901975
You should only drop the bar if you're lifting some serious weight where easing it down would be impossible/dangerous. If you're doing 315-405lbs, there's no reason you should be dropping it after your sets.
>>37902058
this was never a thread about deadlifts. it's one of those "let me post something that looks like it's /fit/ related but the thread will actually be about the op image"
>>37902081
please explain why someone would need the eccentric part of the deadlift :)
>>37902100
>>37902083
It was entirely about deadlifts until you arrived.
>>37901997
>>37902081
>>37902088
Thanks bros. I'm lifting 377lbs for 5 sets of up to 7 reps, with bumper plates in my own garage gym so I don't have to worry about being loud or hurting anyone except myself.
>>37902081
I might have to lower the weight then, sigh
>>37901708
post more pics
The gym I go to only has those one machines for bench, squad, and deadlift
Do you change your form and method on those?
>>37902126
Throw traps into any good thing and it is no longer a good thing.
>>37902155
you mean smith machine?
>>37901988
Gotta do deads faggots
Is it bad to round your back? I've been doing it thinking it was the natural consequence of lifting heavy.
>>37902172
>>37902172
it looks like this
>>37902233
>holdy spikes
>>37902233
Are you George Costanza?
Ok so I'm very tall and I have so-so mobility.
I've been doing my deadlifts a little lifted off the ground, around 30cm i think.
A dude at my gym recommended it to me, he does the same thing he's tall and huge.
I'd like to know what /fit/ thinks about it.
I tried to draw what it looks like kinda.
>>37902294
Well I slept with your wife
>>37902329
You can also try sumo style if you have problems keeping your back straight
>>37902345
Jamal?
>>37901708
It's the one lift that truly drains me completely. Squats are tough but deadlift leaves me fucking knackered. Although it may be cause I usually do then after squats...
Anyway, it's a great lift. I've always done then belt less, cause standard belts don't fit me in a deadlift starting position, and if your form is sound your back will be OK. It's retards who either don't know how to do the lift or rush to put too much weight on the bar than they can handle that snap their shit up.
>>37902345
jerk store was better
>>37902329
I don't know enough to recommend much, but definitely do more mobility work.
Also, I'm hoping your pic is just shit, because that looks nothing like a deadlift. In a deadlift, save for the brief moment where it goes past your knees, the middle of your foot, bar and shoulder should always be in line. Your pic looks like the bar is somewhere out in front of your head, and your body way behind it.
>>37902455
yeah the pic is just shit i did it in 30sec.
and for mobility work idk man nothing seems to work. if i go low my butt winks no matter how much i stretch etc.
on a side note because it's kinda relevant I'm not a beginner i pull 470lbs
>>37901827
Trappy, how did you come to be so knowledgable? Did you go to school for this kind of stuff?
>>37901708
Whose that dick dehydrator?
>>37902713
>her
>>37902713
what a qt, now i know why people around here like her so much
deadlifts blow dick man i hate doing them
why can't trappy blow my dick instead
>>37903038
prob have to see full face first though, she's a real qt in literally every other pic
>>37903038
Christ what a monster
>>37903038
Hnngg
>>37903038
>tfw I find this one the most attractive
uhh
>>37901708
The more I see Trappy, the more I think he looks like Sasha Grey.
>>37903441
Or Quiet
>>37901708
>Those man hands
Ew
>>37903484
Those are a woman's hands tho.
>>37901835
Yes you can, they're called squats.
>>37903441
Looks like Sasha grey mixed with Maggie gyllenhaal
>>37901708
If you're also having trouble building bicep, diddy is your friend! You'll get big arms from it
>Let's have a serious discussion
>Posts picture of biggest attention-whore on the board
>>37904262
The OP isn't a picture of boardshorts though. ...
Does trappy really live in lodon was going to visit japan next year but might worth to go to london if i get to fuk trappy
>>37904247
op here
>literally somewhat self conscious because i feel like my biceps are lagging way behind my tris
t-thanks SS
is this true tho do diddlies really help biceps?
>>37902047
the most balanced beginner routine, strength and aesthetics, perfect volume
>>37904955
They do, But you should just curl as well if your biceps are lagging.
>>37901708
Seriously why do these idiots take advice from a dyel tranny with no education or experience? Its the same type of cuck that asks Jason Blaha for advice on weight loss.
Guys, my shoulderblades get tight and hurt a bit after deadlifting, is this normal or my for is shit?
>>37905081
Yeah lmao. All he does is regurgitate shit from a few books. Most of the information is pointless, inconsistent or lacking anyway. So sad this attentionhunry cockwhore gets so much attention from all these beta DYELs
>>37902233
Vince G?
>>37905131
probably tight lats and traps for sitting so much in front of your pc
