What a great video dude.I stand with my feet shoulder length apart.and I never learn back as well. All you gotta do is keep practicing. :-D

Elliot...just thanks. Thanks.

Hey Elliot, I've watched a lot of your deadlift videos and I really dig what you're saying. Could you maybe talk a little about what a deadlift day workout actually looks like for you? Sets/reps, rest, assistance work, etc...

elliot have u ever been injured in the back with the deadlift?cause many powerlifters do and since u r a champion strongman i was wondering if u did since u are training for so long

Huge help!

ironic my names Elliot as well and i just strained my lower back doing deadlifts lol

@TheyKnowYourHere that's great! thanks for the tips

The guy at the end does that because he has long arms/legs and a short torso. They have a tendency to try and offload their "relatively" weak legs to favor their "relatively" strong back. Long torso'd people do the opposite. It's best for the long torso'd to work on strengthening their back/abs and for the short torso'd to work on those hamstrings/glutes.
hey elliot, it's me again, i made another vid today i did 405lb and i think my form is better now but could still use some more improvement, i managed to lock it out but i had to drop it right away because 2 calluses ripped and it hurt like hell, thanks again for everything elliot

@tippmann98ACTEclark a lot better... 2 things. first, get set and then do the move, too much bouncing around before getting set and pulling... then "show your chest off" earlier in the move, your upper back is rounding just a little too much. Keep up the great work kid!

@zloyhimik pretty damned good!! not much to say except work on finding your groove and greasing it... as the weight gets heavier you may find some more challenges.

In an old email you had a link to a LHM workout you did for your crew written on a whiteboard. You mentioned in that video that a goal for your clients was to Deadlift and Squat 2X their BW and Bench their BW 10 times (I got this right, right?). My max DL back then was 355 (at 200lb, I am a little chubby). Now it is 455lb (still at 200lb) which clears that metric. YES!!! Hoping to clear 500lb by the end of the year. Still working on the other 2 though lol. GREAT video series, THANKS!!!
