Holy shit thank you guys so much for letting me know about this wonderful lift. I feel like Superman every time I go to the gym ever since starting these three days ago:

>start at 1pl8 for 5 reps
>2pl8 at 10 reps the next day
>2.5pl8 at 20 reps with the straight bar and 10 reps with five farmer's walks with the hex bar at 2.5pl8 for 20 paces a time

Why aren't you doing deadlifts right now?

Hex bar
>>
>>37850039
Hex deadlift isnt the same as normal.
>>
>>37850072

i heard its not as good cuz unnatural body position
>>
>>37850099
It feels a little easier for me and I can get my farmer's walk in at the same time.

I also do straight bar for max impact.

I feel like the hex bar just works my quads and really doesn't do much for my glutes and hamstrings. I used to use the Hex to pretty much do squats without holding the weight on my traps because I had a fucked shoulder.

But yeah, congrats OP.
>>
>>37850202
People discuss music they listen to on /mu/

Are you saying you come here to discuss routines without lifting?
>>
>>37849891
Hex deadlift literally is more of a squat than a deadlift.

It should not be called a deadlift and you should not treat it like a deadlift or substitute it as a deadlift.

Your hex SQUATS are not your actual deadlift stats because it is not a deadlift.

Do deads if you want to do deadlifts, do squats if you want to do squats, either proper exercise is 100x better than this.

>>37850585
honestly they're a great hybrid especially if you wear oly shoes while you do them.

don't be mad.
>>
>>37849891
>using upper handles.

WOW GREAT ROM PUSSY.
>>
Deadlift GOAT. easily my favorite (and best) lift.
even if you are just intermediate they look impressive to normies
>>
>>37850585
I do both you goober.
>>
>>37850585
This guy probably does sumo deads
>>
>>37850666
>even if you are just intermediate they look impressive to normies

So true. I am a hungry skeleton triathlete and I get normies mirin when I deadlift just 100kg

My deadlift is weak as fuck. Only managed to get 285 lbs 1x5 when my squat is at 255 lbs 5x5. Wat do

>race war in the US
>not doing snatch grip deadlifts
not gonna make it m80
>>
>>37852473
>snatch grip deadlifts
I looked that up and it's exactly how I do my straight bar deadlift.
>>
>>37852514
it's nice for a juicy upper back, isn't it?
>>
>>37852547
I noticed that my back feels the tightest that it's been ever and lat pulldowns have been a breeze since.
>>
>>37852449

>Wat do

More deadlifts. Maybe some farmer's walks to improve grip.
>>
>>37850202
>Doesn't actually have sex but posts on /gif/ anyway
>>
>>37850585
>the type of bar you use determines your movement and angle

Kill yourself.
>>
>>37852584
why not pullups?
>>
>>37852918
I guess deadlifts are easier to get a good strain going on back there? I'm almost certain my pullup form is shit too.

Are you literally retarded? How is this a fucking squat?
>>
>>37852749
To do a straight bar deadlift like a hex bar, it would go through your shins
>>
>>37855721
Which of the three have you never done? Be honest.

Sorry you have to change your ""deadlift"" stats, anon
>>
>>37855736
Nice ad hominem faggot

>>37849891
