Should you get at least some low back pain or discomfort? The lift does use the low back so you should feel those muscles a bit sore, I think

That's how literally all finnish powerlifters deadlift at worlds, so I guess so.

i deadlift on a rubble brick patio and the bar tends to just roll unevenly wherever it wants between reps

Two plate for five
Rest 2 minutes

Do a bunch of stretches, put on a really heavy and aggressive music, crack my back and my neck, take a bunch of really deep breaths, load up four plate
Start playing rules of nature, put on my belt and straps. Get into position

Yeah, it's not like I lifted at the local gym for 5+ years and finally accepted the fact a home gym is far more convenient.

Maybe one day when your not a poorfag you'll be able to afford a proper home with enough space for a proper home gym for yourself.

Except hyperventilation doesnt actually increase O2 much. Its primary effect is reduced CO2, which can drop dramatically and cause alkalosis (blood pH rise).

Does your hand not produce sweat before there's 4 plates per side on the bar?
>>
>>37952415

If your grip strength is high enough, the sweat won't really matter because the load is so light relative to your max.

It doesn't really matter whether you use it for warmups or not and plenty of people don't bother.
