After a four year hiatus from lifting, I finally got back into the gym late last year. In my quest for a 300lb deadlift, I starting searching for assistance exercises. I started trying out the box lifts, at about five inches, I'm 5' 11', and pulled 305 today (I couldn't find any 2 1/2lb weights). Thanks for helping on my quest to pull 300 off the ground before I turn 71 in a couple months.
I like the box one! I am bad at deadlifts because of back pain and with a box behind me I should know exactly when something is going wrong before I pull a weight I probably shouldn't be pulling! I would have put squats on this list because they are important and if you can squat a lot you could probably deadlift a lot (with sh*t form) or a few good reps with almost no volume....
RE the Box Deadlift. I've used them a lot in the past, but I think the box actually messed with the tension in my calves. Maybe blocking the legs from the front would probably be better, but then it gets in the way of the bar. Maybe Good Mornings with the knees blocked in front?
Most top coaches recommend deadlift holds say at the end of your last set of deads or separately with some heavy like 85-90% 1rm for 10secs or so. Pretty sure I’ve heard chad recommend this but if not at least heard Joey flexx & Mike T say similar things
What happened at the Nationals? I watched it live and only saw Max Aita's wife compete. Did everyone else compete? You usually post a video with the results after the meet. Thanks

I pull sumo for competition so how can I still incorporate these workouts for sumo? I still do conventional but that’s mainly an accessory movement for me
I'm really disappointed in my performance today. I'm on 5s wave deadlift, intensification phase. 4x5 sets at 162.5kg felt insanely heavy today. As of today I wouldn't be able to lift my pr 195kg, not to mention breaking it. My strength off the floor is so hit or miss I will incorporate more deficit deadlifts in 5/3 waves
Have you not watched any JT or RP videos before. All the videos I’ve watched from these channels talks about deadlifting only once a week cause the fatigue ratio is very high, deadlifting twice a week is very hard to recover from.
Positioning and patience is the main thing to focus on (check out our Sumo Deadlift Pillars series) as far as exercises go, Halting Deadlift is a really good option. Here are more: ruclips.net/video/ERUL4Tr9TNQ/видео.html
Some could be block height. There are definitely limb proportions that make some better in the block pull. If you're a better relative deadlifter than squatter than could be it too.

Amazing variations
Yes, those box deadlifts look like a good workaround!
This whole time at home I've been doing Coan style deadlifts. At least I know I'm not weak...I just lower the bar with control!

Great tips. Any tips for increasing grip strength?

@@wolfpowerpersonaltraining8660 thanks. Appreciate it!
Great content and best tips sir
Thanks and welcome
Do you have a video regarding strength and conditioning for soccer aside from the video from about 10 years ago. Would love to hear your thoughts.
Not specific to soccer but this playlist will have a lot of what you're looking for: ruclips.net/p/PL1rSl6Pd49Ik2ureP2DH6xfGjrZY0sEhX

Meg got 2nd, Kristen got 3rd, Marisa was leading after Squat/Bench but had to take just a 60kg Deadlift because her back was injured.
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems Thank you for the info.
Can you talk about different types of routines to follow to increase the deadlift? Like drop sets or volume work.

Thank you sir. I'm your great fan from INDIA.
Thanks!
Me too :)
I feel RDL most in my lower back, how do you breath/brace for that?
I started getting back pain with RDL, what am I doing wrong?
Hey Chad, could not find a ratio for Coan style deadlift to deadlift anywhere? What is a good starting point?
Probably 95% of your normal deadlift.
Can we do box deadlift sumo style??
What about 45 degree Barbell Back Raises as recommended by Pete Rubish?
Very useful exercise

Same movements can be done sumo. Halting Sumo, Paused Sumo, etc

I'd also suggest switching to JuggernautAI. Juggernaut Method is a program I wrote 10 years ago and has no real individualization to it.
Is it mandatory to deadlift twice per week? Or I can deadlift once and RDL + Hyperextensions twice per week for example.

@@meghdaniellama1604 really true. Thanks
The best frequency for you is going to depend on many factors, this will help: ruclips.net/video/sryoRBvoYn4/видео.html

What would you recommend to help with strength off the floor for sumo?

@@JuggernautTrainingSystems thanks, I'll have a look
Round ur back
Paused sumo(plates hover just above the floor)
Get stronger with the conventional deadlift
my block pull is 33% better than from the floor ^^
What’s peaking?
The final part of training before competition
Rows should have been mentioned here.
Off topics but i just wants to know how remove quadcap pain??
Train through it
The deadlift?
What about sumo deadlift?
Here ya go: ruclips.net/video/ro_MygKMBvg/видео.html
I lift conventional....my block pull is 120 lbs heavier. Not sure why.
Some could be block height. There are definitely limb proportions that make some better in the block pull. If you're a better relative deadlifter than squatter than could be it too.
For Hypertrophy what Rep Range would the Block Pull be good in???
55-70% for sets of 6-12 reps
1000lbs
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems Also if I’m going to Failure on them should I take longer breaks between sets??
@@Martin.24_ you should only go to failure on them during an overreaching week
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems What RPE should it be?
Deficit deadifts too.
Improve deadlift WTF !!!!????? The deadlift is accessory work for the clean and snatch... accessory work for accessory work
Its almost like Powerlifting and Weightlifting are different sports...
@@JuggernautTrainingSystems Powerlifting is a sport !? :|
