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?

Wtf is that thing in op pic?
>>37850026
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.

>>37850188
>Doesn't actually make music but posts on /mu/ anyway
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.

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.

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

gym chariot
put 1pl8 on it, tie up manlets, go anywhere forever
My deadlift is weak as fuck. Only managed to get 285 lbs 1x5 when my squat is at 255 lbs 5x5. Wat do
>>37849891
>2016
>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.
>2016
>not wanting to look juicy and actually strong
The autism is real.
>>37850099
No you muppet is easier because the handles are at a height. I use hex bar on a small plinth. Job done
>>37852749
but.... it does
wat
>>37849891
>Why aren't you doing deadlifts right now
Because I snapped my shit up from going hard all the time.
>>37852377
Underrated

>>37852230
I do sumo hex deads, get on my level
>>37855076
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
I deadlift the other day and now my cns is recovering.
