@dlaw70 Why do you call it a a deadlift? I mean, yes...technically it is a deadlift, but half ROM. Why not simply hold it if it is for grip work? I guess the posterior chain work isn't gonna hurt, but it just seems like one could perform full ROM deads and work grip separately for better economy?
Legitimately curious about the logic behind this, not trying to "troll"
@Shotokan7 It was based on the Inch Challenge Dumbell (anyone who could lift it the height of a telephone book won the money, from 1900 to 1920 no-one did). Mike
This is for those training to lift the Inch Dumbbell. Thomas Inch offered a large amount of money between 1900 and 1920 to anyone who could lift his challenge dumbbell (with the thick handle) the height of a telephone book. Complete deadlift or not, no one in that era was able to.

@Malleus117 agreed. Its not even using the lumbard to it's full extent. Or the quads for that matter.

its easier with a human because it is live weight.
BIGDADDYJOHNSON27 3 years ago
It's harder with a human because of both the "wiggle factor" and the fact that the weight is not evenly distributed. Try it and you'll see.
Also, a human has to practice to hold the body stiff to replicate a bar or weight.

Hey mike when are we gonna see you military pressing someone? Love to see that, very hard to do with a human i believe..
