I second this 🖐🏼

The original led me to powerlifting via the course of events which follow: interest in how to deadlift correctly --> Original video -> Austin Baraki feedback video -> starting strength content -> powerlifting programming exploration-> barbell medicine podcasts and youtubes -> barbell medicine group programming -> USAPL competition -> writing my own programming -> 5 comps down and still getting stronger and better at powerlifting in my late 40s. I kid you not that the original video led me down the path to where I am today. Thank you, Alan.

DO NOT MOVE THE BARBELL! love it. I've been deadlifting the same exact way since learning it from the previous video. I finally got to 1x bodyweight edit: so an interesting thing about the heavy in hand cue is that if you do it on light weight say less than 50% 1rm then this cue will actually levitate the bar nd plates by an inch. I get that when I warm up

Swear I was like who is that

I was focusing on keeping my back too strait throughout the whole lift for the longest time until I found out it was hindering my movement. Great tips. Thank you for the video.

Watching the 2017 video improved my deadlift immensely. This is a great update, Alan. 👍🏼

Thank you for updating this Alan. Found myself going back time to time referencing Anthony's video for deadlift mechanics due to some back pain. Its great to see you add your vastly accumulated experience to the lift.

Man it’s good to have you back! I’ve been deadlifting since the past 5 years thanks too your inspiring deadlift videos :) cheers from Denmark. Can wait to try this out.

What I like about these is it gives me a lot of queues to help teach others outside of what I think is useful. Your experience as a gym owner and going to events\conferences is now being handed down to many others and in turn passed on. This is great for keeping us all safe in our quest for greater "physical independence". Thank you Alan!

It was this video 5 years ago that made me love deadlifting, you were the first guy who correctly taught me all the basics for all major lifts 🙏💪🏼🤟🏽 keep doing what you do Alan!

Wow! I’ve been guilty of overthinking many things about the death left set up. Your cue about knees in line with elbows with shins touching the bar is huge for me. Takes the guesswork out of it. Thank you!

Awesome work Alan. I actually hurt my lower back doing deadlifts few months ago and watched one of your videos where you had said don’t panic which was great advice. Have not deadlifted since but after watching this I might go back and try again. I watched one of old videos and I noticed my knees were way ahead of my arms when bending over which I think loaded my back too much. I also never took slack out of the bar. Your videos are so helpful thank you!

I started the gym maybe 3 months ago, the days I dead lift have become my favorite days, its my favorite exercise by far, there is something about lifting that weight staring at yourself in the mirror and seeing your life flash before you eyes that feels so good!

Alan, you are the person I credit most with my outlook towards fitness. I really appreciate the work you do man. The short hair looks great by the way.

this is a fantastic and detailed video - so many "how to deadlift" videos from other people are incredibly basic, and probably harm people with bad form more than they help. Kudos Alan!

Amazing timing, was just about to record myself for a form check on Monday. Thanks Alan. Looking good!

So, move the barbell?

Just came on here to find your old 5 step video to recommend to a new lifter so was delighted to see you’d updated it. Thanks as always

Okay second set and I can say that the "feeling heavy in my hands" is what makes me get into such good position. Thanks!

I'm a 37 year old Dad with two small kids who just started lifting. I'm not fat, I'm actually really skinny, but I want to be able to coach my kids in sports and just be an active Dad. I always wanted to DL but never knew how to do it. I know it's not much, but after watching this video, I easily dl'd 150 lbs where I was previously struggling a bit. This video was INSANELY helpful. Thank you so much for this.

What's your deadlift at now?

Hey Alan! Looks like you lost some "weight" there!! I am proud to be ONE of those "MILLIONS of lifters" that you coached on the DL - that 1 simple cue you gave me to "drag the bar up the shins" made ALL the difference, and that's something I have carried with me over a year later! How's your C & J and snatch coming? I am headed for a Senior Masters Weightlifting medal in the next year and am really enjoying the journey! Congrats on the new Family "addition" and I hope to see the "new and improved" Untamed Strength one day in the future! A bit of "RIP" channeling was a nice touch Buddy!

I appreciate the guidance about keeping your back rigid. The deadlift is the most mentally/emotionally challenging lift for me because I worry about back injury if my form isn't absolutely perfect. Knowing it is okay to have slight curvature while remaining rigid will help me get past this worry and add pounds to the bar.

been watching your deadlift tutorials for a while now. I always come back to reference them when I feel like I need to correct my form. going to review this before my deadlifts tomorrow, thanks.

The new look should be the permanent look. It’s amazing. Plus I learnt how to use deadlift properly with your vid in 2020. Thanks for the update

previous video was extremely useful. thanks for this newer version

Great video as always. Thanks for putting emphasis on not focusing to much on the having your back as flat as a plank. This is very important since so many KZreadrs preach the opposite. For a while it made me injure my lower back almost every time I deadlifted heavy and at some point I almost gave up. When I shifted focus to making my back as strong as possible everything changed. It now has become my best lift!

Alan thank you so much for these videos. I took a workshop with you a few years ago and I still think about it every time I lift.

I’ve recently naturally discovered “feeling heavier in your hands”. Without this, I tend to get erector muscle strain: sudden increase in load results in abrupt stretch and strain in weakest point for me - lower back. But if I load slowly and progressively it is much safer for me.

Excellent guide Alan. Just to be safe I also don't move the barbell during the lift as well.

Just imagining someone standing in front of a barbell 24-7 not doing anything while they somehow magically gain muscle mass is killing me.

Alan's original 5 step deadlift video is one of the best videos on the net and was what got me into lifting.

I plan on starting powerlifting this month. This explanation is so incredibly clear. It immediately gave me more confidence in my endeavor.

This is amazing! Deadlifts are something I look forward to training back up to (100 kg - am fine with up to 60 kg but am trying to really NAIL the form). Great video - I don't think it is possible to get enough of the "basics" 😌 Also I WILL NOT MOVE THE BARBELL!!!!

mega gut gemacht, danke Alan! ❤️

This is the best deadlift video I have watched on all of KZread. I am down 58lbs and really working on some toning, now, so this helps.

Awesome video (as always). Great to see how your queues change over time as you’ve seen even more billions of lifters. Looking forward to the updated other basic lifts.

Physical independence. Alan thrall coming through with the wisdom. I've never thought about it that way but being physically independent is one of the main reasons I train.

Good one on bringing up the deadlift myths. You will not believe how many gymbros at my college still buy into that shit in 2022 lmao.

Great video with useful advice, been deadlifting awhile but I will consider this info, some of it is actually new to me! Thank you Alan!

Great instruction! Alan's previous deadlift guide was super helpful for me a few years ago and this is a great refresher with even more helpful information. 🤟

That cue to have the front of your knees flush with the front of your arms helped me immensely. I had been putting my knees in between my arms, but right in the middle of my arm crease. Now I'm making gains again because my hips aren't too high and everything just feels better.

I'm starting to believe Alan doesn't want us to move the barbell.

Thank You for sharing this fantastic updated version Alan! Your new look is all class🤟🏼🤙🏼.

Awesome- as always! I learned so much from the first one- it is literally how I learned to deadlift! Thanks Alan!

Nice to see Khabib with untamed strength

This is great! This is exactly what I learned, including "DO NOT MOVE THE BARBELL!" 🙂

Your first Video helped me to fix my Deadlift years ago. So I bet I will eliminate some issues I have with this one. Thanks and greetings from Germany!

Your original video got me into deadlifting. It became my favorite Excercise and got me into the gym motivated almost every day in 2018 to 2020.. thank you Alan.. i always refer to your tutorials for beginners alike.. You are the best!!! Need to come visit Untamed strength one day and say hello and thanks in person. Keep up the GREAT WORK!

One thing to note is if you have longer legs you can set up with the bar a bit more forward than mid foot this is what I like to do. Ben Pollack and Chris Bridgeford talked about this in Ben's newest video.

Instructions unclear, I moved the barbell.

Excellent advice! Thanks a lot! I always have some trouble finding the right starting point, but your pointer of how far to stand and then moving the shins towards the bar is going to help me immensely. 🙂

Literally just watched a Mark Rippetoe video earlier about how to deadlift, and now you post this! I’m a beginner and really worried about injuring myself doing a deadlift because of improper form, and this video helped calm my nerves a lot! Thanks Alan!

You're going to "feel it" in the weakest component in your posterior chain. That's the part that is benefiting the most from deadlifting. As you get stronger, where you "feel it" will likely change. You are most likely doing everything correctly. Keep lifting.

this was the set up that got me to PR my deadlift many, many times. even after years; and my slight adjustments for what i found worked for me (feet slightly wider than what alan has here), it is the exact same setup i use every single time. you won't go wrong following these

What a fantastic way of teaching. I love these jokes in between and makes me understand and remember it much better than the straightforward lecture. As I am training with my son and explaining him how to do it I showed him also this clip and especially the 'don't move the barbell' phrase will stick for sure. Thanks and will visit your other videos as well.

Another great video. Your original video helped me get my deadlift form down and post lockdown your videos have helped give me the motivation to go back to the gym with the same energy I had in 2017 😂

Alan has taught me so much about lifting .I love this channel!

Thank you so much for this video Alan, I finally was able to deadlift decent weight without severely straining my back. It felt amazing! I owe it to your amazing advice!!

Glad to see the classic motto is still applicable in current year

Until now, the BEST video i've found explaining each aspect of the deadlift!! (1 year studying here and there about it)

The best and most helpfull video on deadlifts I have seen so far! 🎉Thank you sir!

This was a fantastic upgrade! Thank you so much Alan!

Thanks a lot for this! I usually teach beginners and the extra cues from this video will be extremely valuable!

Thank you for making this Alan. Enjoyed the training sessions. Love the line "Do not move the barbell!" from the video.

I was doing a mobility routine before the gym (deadlift day) and this video autoplayed. It came out an hour ago?!?! MAGICAL!!

Thanks Alan. The original version helped me plenty, but this remake is very useful!

I learned how to Deadlift using yours/Austin Baraki's method of set-up. Its what i reference to anyone who asks me how to deadlift. Thank you for years of education. Completely changed my life. Training UNTAMED

This video is excellent, not just for beginners but for more experienced lifters as well. I find that after some time of focusing on progressive overload my technique on barbell lifts can take a hit. It's good to come to these videos and review what I could do better to improve my technique.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to my next deadlift session even more now!

I always show newbies your OG video, and now I'll keep doing it.

Just started deadlift a few months ago on top of my body workout. I am confident to increase weights after watching this. Thank You

I followed the first ques you gave without explaining in depth and I got into perfect position, felt awesome, I think I'm gonna use that part every time I deadlift until it's burned into my mind. Thanks!

I’ve ALWAYS referred back to your ‘17 video. Love it! Thanks!

i saw it in a previous on of your vids but i don't see it in this video but the one que that finally got my back to lock was "Chest UP" . pull the slack out then, chest up, then press/lift. OmG what a difference. I fell in love with deadlifts after that. i had hurt my back a few times over the years and was always nervous about deadlifts but after that que, i got it. and look forward to heavy deadlifts every since.

I’ve learned so much from you throughout the years. Thanks so much

Sir, thank you very much. Helped me refine my technique and increase my lift. Really appreciate it

Great deadlift tutorial Alan. A back condition has kept me away from deadlifting for over a year. I've recently starting nursing myself back with the trapbar and I'm looking forward to getting back to the bar.

"DO NOT MOVE THE BARBELL"!!! Got me everytime. The Marine in em came out for this video haha. Keep it up.

I agree completely. This is an amazing and totally safe movement. The health benefits are numerous. Thanks strange short beard guy!
