Training the other side of the legs. Involves lowerback, glutes, hamstrings and calves.

This is the deadlift without the quad dominant portion. Safety bars are set ~ midshin. That is the flexibility limit of my hamstrings. Anything lower and my lowerback has to bend down - very dangerous when using heavy weights.

This may also be considered as rack pulls or even RDLS. Bet definetely not a stiff legged deadlift since the bar is always in contact with my body during the lift.

The weight is centered on the heels. Notice how the balls (front) of my feet sometimes lift up while i push against the floor.

  • Wow, medium stance straight leg DL's. Dam! Your low back is STRONG.

  • thanks. gotta beef up the weakest link.

  • sux about the vert.

  • i was expecting it to drop.2-4 weeks of full recovery while doing light jumping drills always bring it back up.

    repping 4 plates on 1/2 deadlifts sets me up for the full squats. at least my squats will fail from the legs and not the lowerback :)
