please explain this 2 me like i was a 6 yr old child : ) what is the point of 5x5? u use the same weight 4 all sets and...? also, on some of your reps, u kinda exaggerate the "lean back" which relaxes the lower back and glutes, just sayin.
great job man. I know taking a big belly of air is crucial for lower back stability but I'm having a little trouble with rhythm. Any tips on breathing?
I noticed you dont alternate grips..doesnt that force one side more than the other ? I tend to do that too but im not sure if it favors one side more than the other..
thanks to this video i started deadlifting i maxed out at 475 last wednesday, my squat increased to 405 at a weight of 183, thanks bro i used to be scared of these exercises but this shows proper form. keep it up man
Good strength there, but I think you might want to look at this for proper setup to avoid putting too much stress on your back. I made the same subtle mistakes you were making all the way up to 405x5, but I have to say Smitty's technique does wonders. Also, watch that your shoulders don't lag behind your hips.
this isnt actually the correct 5x5 method. The 1st 2 sets are lighter weights for warm ups, and only the last 3 sets are the heavier sets. And when you can get 5 reps on all of the last 3 sets you need to add about 5 to 10 pounds next workout, and that is progressive resistance. I would say just add about 5 pounds for upper body movements, and 10 for lower body when you are ready to add more weight.
@studiobuddy i dont think man, all the articles i could find on 5x5 never showed it going heavy beyond the last 3 sets. Strong lifts i believe is where i got most of the info when i wanted to learn about it and Reg Park.
It amazes me how old people just 'go through the motions' and barely put in any effort in the gym. Just cuz your old doesn't mean you can't work a little hard.
5x5 program is the best im glad to see others taking advantage of this program,my deads are going up like wildfire i keep adding 5lbs a week on them and it works well for me on my other lifts too ;)
I can only see 6 x 20kg plates (oops sorry, wheels as you call them). When I was at school 6 x 20kg = 120kg, when you convert that to pounds it's 264lbs.
schools in the US are not metric yet we use 45lb plates not 20 kg plates that is where you are going wrong. So lets calculate 6x45=270+45 (bar) = 315 lbs...so simple
So apparently tracey's school didn't teach about rounding errors. 45 lb is 20.4 kilos. She is right in saying 20 Kg if she rounded down, but you are making a grave mistake by blowing up the rounding error by a magnitude of 6. I hope you didn't build any of my bridges or rocket ships.
@roebuckk 53??? conrgats my friend!! I am 39 and have been involved in athletics since I was 14. Haven't stopped working out ever since one way or another. keep it up, we'll live to be 100
is touch and go harder than a normal "dead" deadlift?

how many reps and sets do you do for the warm-up before these sets?
MetaIhead89 1 year ago
@MetaIhead89 start with 135x10 and then 225x8 to warm up
roebuckk 1 year ago
@MetaIhead89 I'd say till your comfortable. When going that heavy you cant jump from 135 to 315 in 2 sets

@Natoyle93
You should always wear proper shoes for squats.
With deads, it puts your body closer to the ground and that's a good 1/2" to 1" deficit you don't have to worry about.
