Proper deadlift pulling technique and preventing injuries

[JOKER47]

I believe she's about 580 lbs at 3% bodyfat, and deadlifts well over 2500 lbs.

Dude, get real. Do you have any idea how hard it is for a woman to get to 3% BF?





She's probably more like 6%.........

Olympic lifts are overrated. If you want to be explosive try westside. If you watched the world strong man competitions you would have seen that none of them placed the bar along there shins and that they pulled back ecspecially as they began to tire. And B Fold has every right to mad at anabolicmd.

Well, all I can say is that this thread isnt solely about what you did, its about proper technique and injuries. Your case was just an example that I used to get a quality, in-depth discussion going. I ceased replying to you because your ego got involved, and you started with insults and putdowns. That is not how this board operates. You stated that I dont even workout, yet you know damn well that I do. You also called me a troll, simply for disagreeing with you. You see how many posts I made? I'm not avoiding anyones questions, I just gave priority to those who were willing to discuss the issue calmly and openly. But if you want me to go right down the line with your points, here we go:
Its good that you kept the bar at your shins, if you hadnt, the leverage on your hamstring would have been a lot stronger and the tear a lot worse. Its simple, the bar needs to stay as vertical as possible. Any back and forth movement, beyond the bare minimum needed to clear the knees, is unnecessary and can cause injuries.

Your first post was directed to show that MY technique caused MY injury. I was not the only who who saw it that way either. Several others saw and it emailed me instead of posting here.

You do workout? I was pretty darn sure that you stated to someone else who used to be a member here on Elite that you did NOT workout at all.

A Troll? Weren't you the guy who was copy/pasting threads from other forums/websites and posting them as YOURS on the Chat forum?

You can disagree with my form all day long if you wish...but OBVIOUSLY it does work for me as well as MANY others.

I'm curious as to what your lifting and physical stats are.

though stats are irrelevant, she pulls more from the floor than many of the guys on here (beltless and strapless) and weighs a whole lot less. i would venture to say by summer, nonerz will hit a 2x bodyweight deadlift. and has a very nice power clean to boot.

One of her biggest assets is that she constantly strives to learn more and more every day...

Anabolicmd...when I am back and able to do a full pull again...I will try pulling with the bar completely against my shins to see how this affects me. I've done it in training before and it threw me off greatly.

For a while I'll only be doing fulls pulls LIGHT...so I'll try them. I'll even video them and post them up here...everyone can look at them and what it does to my form.

I've never trained Westside, nor have I seen any studies comparing which is better for developing explosiveness. So I'm curious how you know that the Olympic lifts are overrated and that westside is better for explosiveness?

Aside from that, I agree with you.

What about the 500+ pounds and 2500lb deadlift, that sounds even harder!

I leave for a few hours and a little shit storm ignites. I cant leave you guys alone!! haha J/k

I lift with the bar starting away form the shins after all surely dragging up the shins uses more energy in friction than lifting an extra 1/4 or an inch., especially if you have knobbly knees like i do
