Man y’all are putting some amazing videos out lately thank y’all so much for this info
So much great info and explanation. Thank you!
Appreciate you sharing knowledge. Great video!
Excellent vid & tutorial Sam!!🔥👌💪😎💯
Great tips in this video for sure. I had not considered the snatch grip pull. Will have to try a few sets of these next deadlift session! Thank you Sam!
So much to learn! Love these videos, love Sam, love Dave and EliteFts! Thank you so much guys. Please the same video for squats. Thank you
Great work , the products plugs are actually helpful , especially that the products are affordable , wish there was more gear to allow band and chain attachements to different excercises , most attachements require specific power rack or bench rack , wenning had some good tips on it , but best gear is on elitefts , just wish there was more of it
Deficit pull RDLs or sumo deadlifts are my favourite, (I pull conventional mostly). Awesome video as usual guys, Sam knows his stuff!
Definitely incorporating these tips now, thanks
Like the tips and tricks you guys give, wish I could get my hands on some of your equipment down under.
I agree and incorporate all of those except the paused deadlifts in my program. I used to do those but I think I remember Dave saying something one day about "why would you purposely train your body to stop in the middle of a deadlift". Something clicked for me hearing that and since I scratched those I feel like my deadlifts have been more explosive.
I will say that giant rackable cambered bar always drove my deadlift (and squat) up fast. Especially when it was done to a box.

100% agree.
This was a great one. Funny and informative! I definitely think the SSB box squats have grown my deadlift. Thanks Sam and Jacob! (also deadlifts suck lol)
Sam is crushing these videos. Humor, practical lifting tips, and practical product placements.
Also pause deadlifts I find work better if I pause on the way down instead of the way up, for the exact reasons you just mentioned.
I always appreciate learning movement variations. My only difficulty is trying to determine how/where to incorporate into my programming.
Fucking awesome man, looking forward to the squat one of these now too. Great stuff
Always forget about snatch deads, perfect reminder. Great video
my deadlift was stuck for months at 385 and i was shaking when doing that lift, then i started doing deficit deadlifts and i gained almost 75lbs on my dl after 6 weeks without any shaking and without a belt and im still setting prs almost every week now
Snatch grip RDL and SS yoke good mornings are THE BEST!
Find you a training partner who hates cardio as much as Dave hates deadlifts
Just my thoughts on pause deadlifts. The purpose of the pause is almost like the block pull. To improve your positioning, when you pull the slack and wedge your hips it should just about pull the weight off the ground…so the goal for a pause is to allow that weight to hover right off the ground(.25-.5in) and then explode through the movement! If you find that pausing at the knee works for you then go for it, just my thoughts🤘🏼
SLDL’s are a favorite of mine

Great for building a big ass.
I only do stiff legs with dumbbells or kettlebells. Not only does it give me more range of motion to work with, my body doesn't confuse motor patterns. If I do too many stiff legs, I find my max deadlifts turn into stiff leg deadlifts.
FWIW, high rep TnG deadlifts are one of the BEST ways I've found to drive up my 1RM. Not saying that negates your recommendation, just saying there are some outliers out here.
Hands down my favorite exercise haha.

Any benefit in just pulling to the knee to get better off the ground? If so, heavy or high reps?
@eliteftsofficial

It seems like the benefit would be getting better at your starting position. It would depend on your strength level and your ability to maintain proper positions really.

Check out the Starting Strength KZread channel for „halting deadlifts“. Basically they say that around 400 deadlifts, and especially deadlift volume gets too taxing, so they split the movement: Haltings (to right above the knee) and rack pulls (from right below the knee) so „the bar over knee“ gets worked twice. Also try to stay in front as much as possible for the extra „straight arm lat work“. You could alternate haltings, rack pulls, deficits and standard, so only pulling full Rom once a month. For some this works wonders, for others it’s conjugate. Maybe try it
Why wouldn’t a 10” box on the box squat have even more carryover to the deadlift? I understand the point of starting from the same position as the dL but it seems even lower would be better-same idea as a deficit dL....thanks in advance!

I’d assume because it would be a different movement pattern. I think the purpose of the deadlift stance box squat is to mimic the deadlift without fatiguing your back.
Hope this question finds its way to Sam, Dave, anyone. It’s been eating me up. Set up: Pulling sumo using a deadlift bar, my max was holding steady at 365-375 for months. Months! Probably for around 6 or more. Could not break thru. As per my protocol, I did my share of accessories- deficits, pin pulls, block pulls using large wagon wheel 45’s, to no dead’s at all. Finally one day, the deadlift bar was nowhere to be found, (Think someone was doing curls with it at the squat rack, I digress) so I used a standard power bar. I maxed at 425 with 2 reps. What the actual f*ck?! My question(s): It can be asked in multiple ways, why did the PB have that much of an increase? Or did it? Has the DL bar been holding me down? I thought the DL bars worked the opposite. Sorry for all the q’s but this has confused me. Any info is very much appreciated! Thanks.

Hi Mike, without any idea of your training age, skill level with the execution of the lift, training history, what your training looks like,or anything like that it is hard to say. Seems to me your form/execution of a DL with a stiff bar is better than the DL bar for whatever reason.
@ACowboyHat
2 жыл бұрын
I'm pretty novice on biomechanics and the like, but is it possible the stiffer bar kept your muscles under tension better than a DL bar would? Like, since a DL bar would give and bend as you pull up, you are losing muscle tension/ the ability to forcefully contract. Using a stiffer bar maybe meant you were able to use that tension to lift the weight??? I know nothing, I am just a lad, so pls correct me if I am wrong

Shocked no Dimel deadlifts to be honest. Seems almost every video of Dave coaching the deadlift he's got people doing them.

You seem like you are a little confused perhaps so I thought I would help you out. If you are into body building this is not the channel. This is a powerlifting conjugate channel. But as far as building more muscle in your glutes, the best exercises would be hip thrusts, but any movement where your hips hinge, meaning where you thrust your pelvis, will work your glutes. The sides of your glutes can also be worked with hip thrusts or any exercise where your hips adduct meaning where you spread your legs for example the “good girl bad girl machine.”

Nervous tic. Very common for many public speakers.
"Why would you want to use this instead of a good morning?" Well it might be because by the time I get around to do good mornings in my deadlift session I'm already REALLY fucking close to throwing up and bending over like that will for sure do the trick. This is generally frowned upon in Gyms that do not have a designated puke bucket.
well it is fun to get hit in genitals with the peace of metal, but again i am from croatia, so we are a bit crazy;=)))))))))))) but god video with lot of information, thank you

I've found the pause deadlift to strengthen my torso to stay tight during the lift. A very fast pause mid-shin and then explode up!
