YO Elliot...So when should the belt be used and lifting aids such as straps or even a suit

[strengthcamp]

@FutureFbstar28 usually no, but sometimes yes! (shitty answer, I know)

[Kevin3310]

a couple questions,

how are we supposed to know a "20 degree bend in the knees"

when we get our feet under the bar, is until our shins touch the bar a good hip height?

[strengthcamp]

@Kevin3310 the best way is to get a coach who understands the dead lift.

I am pretty new to deadlifting and i wonder: is there any problems to start deadlifting while still recovering from a torn/reconstructed ACL? the knee that i have a problem with is not stable to the point where i want it, but i feel that sooner or later i need to get in to shape, and i found a routine where you need to deadlift and squat a lot instead of running to get in shape

[strengthcamp]

@bjoli198 i really cant say... i would probably wait until healed, but if you saw my torn biceps videos you'd say that im full of it :)

[strengthcamp]

@krb0123 a lot of people (and strongmen) will tell you to go continuously with a bounce... i personally like to "reset" for each pull.

@strengthcamp Yo Elliot! Right before lock out are we supposed to squeeze our shoulder blades together?

Ive got that problem too, i feel my shoulders rounding in. I never did deadlifts, only everything else, i benched press ALOT though. Thanks for the tip, i really want to improve my posture

I fell in love with dead lifts today. Your video series was great education for me. Also I like your attitude on becoming the strongest version of yourself. It really has inspired me a lot and definately made me get closer to the strongest me!

[mosomo17]

Excellent stuff, i'm new to deadlifting and wanted to try it today at the gym, feeling happy that i can do it safely, thanks! ;)

Hey Elliott,, Having problem with lower back pain.. its stopping me from deadlifting heavy/squatting etc. Ive been doing alot of stretching on the hip/back extensor/glutes.. alot of foam rolling. its on the right side of the lower back. What would you say be the best thing to get my self strong again,, I miss being able to lift heavy. Any tips would be most helpful!

[anyaluva25]

U seem really intelligent in the science of workouts....i know a dead lift will increase mass and strength in legs, but can it increase your vertical for athletic sports?

P L E A S E R E P L Y:

Hey eliot correct me if iam wrong but my coach said your hands shoud be between your legs anddd

Whats the difference between hexbar and deadlift? Thx man awesome vids!

Iam 16 and i can do 225(6'0 161pounds) with hexbar haven't tried deadlift and iam new actually my first year to try out to weightlift thx once again.

[DaSprawler1141995]

Im 16 and can max deadlift around 450 at 235 body weight and i naturally have form like that but with all these extra small critical things i can change about my deadlift i think il be able to pull a lot more! Thanks i really enjoyed the series
