Deadlifts are the greatest!

[Anakin]

Just wanted to say that anyone not doing standard deadlifts should include them asap. No other excercise gives me the same feeling in the traps and middle of the back that has resulted in increased thickness. If you suffer from a wide back that is not thick (i.e. the kind you get from just going chins or pulldowns), this is the answer

I masochistically enjoy the discomfort.

Hell yea, deadlifts kick ass...I've noticed some good lat growth since doing deads.
I've been trying to get thebrute and WalkingBeast to start doing deads, but to no avail

 

[Tweakle]

thebrute told me he doesn't deadlift because he's afraid of getting too big and the beast doesnt want to risk getting icky calluses.

deads own.

I think Tony Little was advertising one of these deadlift contraptions on TV last week.

On a serious note.. I am glad deadlifts are working for you.

I don't understand that lift - you just lift it off the floor? Then what? Shouldn't you put it over your head or something??








That's what people were saying when there was an exhibition of the deadlift in my school. Funny shit.

Actually. . they are 100 percent correct!!

Of course, but they thought there should be something more to it. They didn't think it was any big deal because the guy just lifted it off the ground (even though it was 500 pounds).

Deadlifts fuckin rock!! i love the crazy burn in the romboids and traps!!

Only 500lbs?? Everyone on Elite is pulling over 500lbs.

I'm deadlifting tomorrow. Can't wait. Going for 365. Maybe more. Guess I'm the one guy here that can't do 500. Give me a few months.
