 Hey everybody, let's talk about grinding through a deadlift so as the weight gets heavier or as you get more fatigued right as the challenge of the deadlift increases You can expect things to slow down as long as they're heavy right if you're doing speed work I don't want you to go into those ranges where you're you know Really slow in the bar down because I want you to train the speed and the power But if you're just doing general lifting for muscle sake or lifting for strength sake like powerlifting type stuff Then you can expect your final reps of your final sets or even your final reps of most sets to be What what we might call grindy, right? You need to grind through them They're going to take a lot longer time to finish rather than the initial sets So if I do a set of five right this is the first rep is almost always gonna look super easy But the third fourth the well, let's do it this way the fifth Definitely the fourth probably and the third maybe will look harder Okay, and maybe deceptively hard What I want especially for you the the like intro lifters here who are just getting into strength training what I want you to understand is that this is normal I have a lot of clients who will compromise their technique Because they feel like they're slowing down and they feel like they're doing the lift wrong and like they're not gonna make it Right, they feel like if they don't Totally just shoot up out of the bottom that they're not gonna get the lift What I often found is that to do that you're again to be repetitive You're losing your position in doing that so in a deadlift your first one might be pretty awesome and look really good And then the fifth one might look like this And it might not it might be It might not be the most weight that you can do it might not be the hardest thing in the world But the speed will stay the same your position will just change So what I want to implore you is learn how to grind through those reps It's okay if they slow down just make sure you're maintaining your position
