Deadlifts are the GOAT exercise

[1-8-7-Skillz]

Hands down my fav exercise
No feeling compars to doing a heavy set of deadlift or a 1 rep max set
Lil tip: I do heavy deadlifts with 1 rep max trys once a week, the other time I do them with low weight and focus on as many reps as possible. shyt had me damn near ready to drop dead yesterday

used to do them 1x a week.... I would have to take 4-5 days for my lower back to recover. I pretty much do em 1x 1-2 months now.

[Curtis Nightfish]

One of the GOAT exercises.

Lower back is messed up so I've started doing rack pulls. Almost the same as a full deadlift but a few inches off the ground with the rack supports.

That 'for reps' shyt is for the birds.

Deadlifts put me in hospital about 4 years back. Ever since then I've been very deliberate with my progress until now after hitting 5 plates.

My new thing is hitting 10 reps in 10 minutes. If I achieve it go up 5lb. Just started but will try with 190kg next time.

 

[the cool]

I can't do deadlifts I have a bad lower back

Can deadlifts help strengthen the lower back if you use moderate weight with 10-12 reps per set?
