This guy is by far my favorite guest you've had. No BS, straight to the point.
I feel like my testosterone levels went up just listening to Mark...
Mark is all we need!
Same.
Same.
They did
As does your belly fat....
Mark Rippetoe teaches Freddie Mercury of Queen how to deadlift.
Sure looked like him (...or was it...her??) didn't it?!
I don't think the "of Queen" was really necessary.
Ahahaha true story
Mark woundnt want to bend over around freddie 😀
Mark O Doherty don’t think he can do much jobbie-jabbing these days
This should be REQUIRED VIEWING for EVERY LIFTER
I like the explanation of the breathing techniques while doing the deadlift. Makes total sense.
PS... Know about this Channel from Steven Crowder.
That was super helpful for me.
When it comes to weights Mark is on it like a freshly waxed Dodge viper car bonnet. One thing I learned from this vid which is really important is putting the weight on the middle rather than the heel of the foot.
That Brett fellow looks like a fighter pilot from the 70s or early 80s, or he could be some fancy dude from olden days Prussia with a metal helmet w/ a spire on top. Coach Ripp looks like a high school coach from the 70s or 80s that should be wearing 80s coaches shorts.
LOL, I have a friend who wears those coaches shorts all the time in the summer. And he's not even a coach.
Hey Brett, many thanks for all the great work and information you have been providing over the years. As a young father, your site has helped me grow and will continue to help me grow into a well rounded Man in this day and age. I can't thank you enough.
You're welcome Joshua Hubbard and thanks for the kind words. All the best.
This is absolutely brilliant. So many videos on youtube and coaches teach the deadlift completely wrong by lowering hips way too much. The majority of the work is done by the hamstrings and one should feel the tension in the hamstrings before the movement.
Awesome tutorials. He should also mention the risk of bicep tears using the alternate grip. There are tons of bicep tear vids and 90℅ of them are when doing deadlift.
When you supinate your grip, the bicep shortens, that is why the supinated grip side suffers bicep tears more easily, straight or not.
Nick Zema good point. That's the most common injury
thanks that's helpful
Engaging the tricep as well as not being on steroids can help to greatly reduce the risk of tears with mixed grip. I prefer to train with double overhand, but mixed is just a stronger grip.
After my deadlift workout I figured out what I did wrong. Every time I need to refresh my memory on the ques I come back to this video. As I was pulling I didn’t fight for chest up and let my shoulders round not my lower back though woke up with my upper hurting so damn bad. Now I won’t forget to fight for chest up. Thank u for this video.
I love how simple the instructions are, definitely comprehendable.
lol 6:35 Rippetoe is a national treasure!
Indeed!
thepokekid01 One of the funniest things I've heard in a while. He is so serious while he says it as well which makes it that much more of an impact.
thepokekid01 What kills me is gyms like mine that have the rubberized plates and somehow people think that means they can just drop the weight anytime they please. So f'ing annoying. I agree with Rippetoe... dropping the weight is for [beep]s.
How can you not love him.
You can tell he's definitely a power lifter. If you're a weight lifter you never lower the weights, because you're scored based off of how you can raise the weight. So ideally if you're near your 1 rm you used everything you had to raise the weight and you just drop it for safety. Now deadlift isnt a snatch or C&j, but I think the same principal still applies. His belief comes from the days when weights were still iron would be my guess
I think Mark had a bit of a memory lapse:
"Don't drop the bar... unless you're in planet fitness. Then always drop the bar, on every exercise."
I think that is what he meant to say.
Great video. I've been following a lot of strength training videos including Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe. Mark didn't hold back. He gave his best on these videos. It's because of videos like this that I'm now a subscriber for Art of Manliness. When I went to your channel, I never realized I needed this kind of information. Thanks Brett!
Another good lesson. Curious to know the benefits of the deadlift, but maybe I skipped over that part. Oh, and "dropping the weight is for p__sies." lol
Matt Koval He meant that for "working sets". It would be painful if everyone did this with 135 lbs. He is just trying to curve the average Joe from doing it on the regular. There is no way in hell I am gonna slow down the eccentric portion of my PR lift (515lbs) and risk injury. Realistically it is fine to drop a loaded bar from lockout when you hit your max PRs just don't throw them down like an animal on working sets.
kadoku dropping 515lbs isnt an acceptable practice even if you just hit a PR which I and a lot of people would argue with considering you needed to drop the weight and didnt complete the entire lift. If youre dropping the weight, its too heavy. You should be in control of the lift and the weight at all times.
kadoku If you have to drop the weight at the top, you didn't do a deadlift. That shit only flies in competitions where the goal isn't increasing your strength.
+kadoku I never drop weights whether it's a warm up or a max lift ... End of ...
+kadoku You keep your hands on the bar but don't control the negative. So it's like a controlled drop.
The guy at the GNC she told me to tell me to drop it at the top. Thankfully I watched this video thanks for correcting that mr rip
Just because I didn’t see anyone else say it: “hip drahhhhhve”. Much respect for starting strength and The Godfather of basic mechanics.
I finally took the time to watch this video because my deadlift form has been shit. I knew I had been lifting the bar to far out , so I fixed that quickly with this video! But the tips on what you should be doing like pushing the floor away from the bar and squeezing the chest out finally did it for me. I Easily got the 5 rep DL I failed at 3 reps only a few days ago.
would love to have an uncensored version available. Rip's cursing is a thing of beauty
honestly... but THIS is by far the best Deadlift Tutorial i´ve ever seen on RUclips. Thanks !!!!
thumbs up at the 6:39 mark.
I stand very corrected. Been doing this the wrong way for a while now... Thanks Mark & Brett for the training!
I was a competitive weightlifter for many years. That there is a good coach. Bringing that weight down in proper form also develops strength. Only thing he didn't address was head position and point of focus with the eyes which ensures better posture. That said, I don't know the latest science behind the lift.
Should head be up or down? I've mostly heard it should be down to keep your spine neutral. Is that accurate?
Most important thing with deadlifts is to keep contact with your shins/legs at all times. You want to scrape your legs with the barbell. I usually wear pants or long socks because of this. Only time I've had something go wrong with deadlifting is when the bar loses contact with my shin, that's when back injuries happen.
"That's for puss!es".
Funny what he said about people just making noise in the gym with the equipment, my friend and I have a running joke about that crap.
"You didn't finish your set"
"Yeah but did you hear how loud I dropped it bro? Did everyone look?"
OMG I am dieing!!!!! LMAO!!!
I laughed my ass off at this. Especially at the end where he stated "I'm serious about that shit."
Wait so am I supposed to set the weight down slow lmao
yeah and fuck your whole spine with it, nobody can set it as slowly as that guy when you're moving +200kg -.- no need to drop from the lockout position but midway on the drop
I drop it at the top of my last rep of my last set. It's my reward for a job well done!!
I love how Mark articulates every nuance.
Along with deadlifts I'm beginning to really like Mark Rippetoe's coaching.... Great stuff.
Looks seriously into the camera....."I'm serious about that" lolol he cracks me up
These videos are extremely helpful as a companion to the book. Thanks.
literally every sentence is gold. Awesome dry humor.
One of the best series on AOM!
I've been doing the Mark Rippetoe deadlift form for a while now and I like it. My only fear is it's very very close to a stiff leg deadlift because of Mark's high hip technique... where as most powerlifters you see (including the current world record holder) drop their hips before. Even one of Mark Bell's RULES to deadlifting is to make sure the hips are at least below the shoulders. not by a football field but still below none the less.
Fantastic video. I've been a huge supporter of Rippetoe, seems like a great guy to hang out with.
can i request a video? How to fight a duel. Many thanks in advance - Robbie.
Most is good, except he’s not packing his lats at the start, so his posture is somewhat rounded. Also the breath; waiting until it’s back on the floor, before exhaling? I would think you’d pass out?
This is the most useful channel i ve ever subscribed to.
Mark is an insane instructor , wish one can find such learning methodology in bodybuilding
Now that was educational! Loved it! Btw, if it's not a secret, what are your lifting maxes Brett?
Deadlift: 465
Bench: 300
Squat: 375
Press: 205
Art of Manliness Damn, thats a 1000+ plus for the big 3. That's awesome. How long have you been lifting?
John Barduhn Since high school. Got really serious about it again two years ago.
Thanks once again for this amazing series. I was always curious about the people who dropped the bar at the top and it always seemed to me like they were cutting half of the lift out of their exercise, just like people who don't squat past parallel. Also excited to see that the press is coming out next. Just wondering if you had time to record a power clean video as well, that one would be the most desirable.
Didn't have time to do a power clean video this time around. Hopefully we can do it one day.
Archerzz
I basically take Mark Rippetoe's advice/rules on the squat as the gospel, but I really feel like some variations on the deadlift can be beneficial, depending on the individual's physiology. I know for me personally, if I drop my hips lower, while simultaneously maintaining an arch in the lower back, and focusing on keeping the hips as low in relation to the bar as I possibly can, I end up being able to lift far heavier than if I lift with my hips high. I also avoid back pain this way.
archimodes Try sumo deadlifting. It's a lot more leg dominant and you lift with a more vertical back angle
it's not a squat with a bar in your hands is the best advice for pulling conventional. I'll be sure to implement that correction. Very much appreciated!
Excellent video. Reflects what Rippletoe wrote in "Starting Strength", except much more concise!
"The deadlift is not a squat with the bar in your hands." I've got some muscle memory to overcome.
Still not fully understanding "squeeze the chest up". Is this an isometric contraction of the pec/ant delt group ??
Tim Lebsack That's to ensure your back is straight if I'm not mistaken
Thank you, Sir Mark...
i definitely enjoy listening to an older man talking about how to lift than some young shirtless guy going into way too much detail and being overly confusing.
Wow thank you so much for taking time to make these incredible videos! 💪🏻💪🏻
Mark is the kinda guy who would give a lecture on the most simplest things like walking and id still listen like i dont know.
After watching this I tried to keep my hips up. I have now been unable to walk for a couple of days, blew my lower spine and what feels like the SI joints on both sides. What I think Mark doesn't consider is that people have different leg to body length ratios, and some of us have too tight hamstrings to keep a straight back with the hips so high. By not lowering my hips a bit as I usually do, my lower back took too much of the weight,. If and when I can deadlift again I won't be following that bit of advice.
If you're back isn't strong enough to pull the weight you can't pull the weight. Really not his fault at all that you 1. Don't have the strength to just pull however much you want and 2. That you can't take feedback from your body, I really doubt it was just one second you're fine and then the next you touch the bar in the new stance and your back snaps
Read the book
@@Firefromtheviod Since my point was that I can't keep my lumbar spine straight with the hips that high, and following Rip's instructions made me lift with a curved spine, something I had avoided previously, I don't see why being injured by it is unlikely. I wasn't lifting heavier than usual by the way.
I'm not saying Rip doesn't know what he is talking about. Merely that blindly following his advice isn't always a good idea. Not everyone has the hamstring mobility to keep a straight back in that position. I'm not the only one who got injured doing it his way.
OddityDK why the fuck would you deadlift knowing your low back was rounded? If you can’t get your hips high without your lower back rounding, you need to work on mobility, and NOT continue to lift with poor form. Follow the professionals advice, but listen to your body first. He does take into consideration individual body proportions, but mobility needs to be trained as well. If he had you in this video, your set up would certainly look different, but it wouldn’t be far off. Listen to your body!
This old man is freaking awesome. Great coaching👍
Damn that dude's manly!
Have struggled to find the right deadlift explanation. This is perfect 👍
I've watched 2 of these videos so far and its amazing how there are so many different thought/theories/ideas as to how to do some of these lifts. Mark Rippetoe is a name I've heard repeatedly so I figured I'd see what he has to say. Lot of it makes sense but it's very different from a lot of what's out there. For example, this is the first video that talks about "high hips" in a deadlift. I understand the why but never seen it before.
One question to Mark, should the neck be in that "extended" position while getting set to lift or should he be looking at the floor out in front of him like you instruct during the power clean video? I see this position a lot in videos and at the gym. I basically heard a trainer at one time describe the head as an 8lb bowling ball on top of a stick (spine) and that is why you need to not let your neck get overly extended/flex because it unbalances the spine.
Thanks
The best tutorial I’ve seen yet. Thank you!
Exactly, I don't know how people act like dropping the shit after the lift is ok, that's like if you went to do push-ups and after pushing up you just collapsed and counted it hahaha
Well after 46 years of lifting I can bench press 360 still at 64. I am going to start doing deadlift and want to get the form down because it sucks to get hurt at this age. I will post some updates of my progress. Love the comment about dropping the weights....
Now THIS is a deadlift tutorial. Explained well.
amazing vids!! will it be a bench press one?
You guys are awesome thanks for helping me to be a manlier man.
We're all adults here... There's no need to bleep out the profanity. It's part of the training.
I got a PR a couple weeks ago but when I saw the video a gym-mate shot I was shocked by how bad my form was. I gotta clean it up before I go heavy again!
I thought he was saying "that's for cunts" Proper made me laugh on the first one, with the glare like!
I have trouble keeping the hips up without rounding as well. I have to drop the hips to get the back straight before bracing, then I bring the hips back up.
Isn't his upper back too rounded in the beginning
Yes and no. A little thoracic spine rounding is ok, lumbar spine rounding never ok.
It's alright as the other comment mentioned for some slight rounding, depending on the other points of stance. If you want to go more in depth you can look into Alan Thrall or Johnnie Candito's explanations on deadlift stances. Most lifters will recommended more of a parallel back than an actual curved back, but it all depends on height, weight, body type, and more. No one stance is correct for everyone, so you have to find the stance that's right for you while maintaing proper form.
El Payaso No Tiene Pene As you move up in weight you push yourself its almost impossible to avoid a little thoracic spine rounding.
It's fine to relax the upper back as long as your lower back doesn't get out of line .. it increases floor speed although it tends to make lockout more difficult
David Andersson .
I love Mark Rippetoe. You should see if you can visit Jim Wendler for programming of these lifts and for generally badassery.
This is a great idea! I like this series of videos a lot. Keep up the great content.
Mark Rippetoe's face the moment he realizes Brett is asking him a question about dropping the bar is now my wallpaper on all devices.
Love this. What a teacher. Legend
The point at 6:35 needs to be put on a loop and preserved in the Smithsonian.
I wanna punch Hasbulla
Why are words being censored on a channel called the Art of Manliness? Our delicate little manly ears can handle it, I assure you.
Yeah the viewers can handle it, but the RUclips Gestapo cannot lul.
Great videos, a lot of knowledge from Mr Rippetoe. It makes think of that videos on youtube of that muscular guys shouting non stop trying to tell you how to work out and selling supplements...nevermore
I’m 71 yrs old. I have lumbar problems (roto-scoliosis, a 6 or 7mm L4 bulge), and short, tight hams. I can’t reach the bar with straight legs, stiff knees. Should I drop immediately to starting position, or just pull from a rack?
He is dead on regarding the hip placement. I used to injure my back all the time because my hips were TOO LOW.
Impressive deadlift there, Brett.. hope you are still lifting heavy!
Wow, didn't realize slowly lowering it was part of the lift. Now I know.
I drop it violently each rep
+Chris Lee Yeah, bro that's the negative and on the eccentric part of a lift ( the negative ) you are actually putting more stress on that particular muscle group as it requires more work. So it's actually the most important part of the lift itself.
You control drop deadlifts ... which is to the platform hands on the bar. Deadlifts are concentric focused the eccentric phase is not important .. controlled drop is not dropping the weight from the top, hands are on the bar taking some of the weight but getting it back down with as little fuss as possible.... if you're interested in working the eccentric phase RDLs are the variation that are used, which are top down, controlled down and coming out of the stretch reflex as they don't go back to ground.
Powerlifting standards have polluted strength training. I'm just glad most people know "leg drive" has nothing to do with training strength with a bench press. Bit surprised we don't see more "performance enhancing" shirts and pants in gyms at this point. Görner would've considered them weak idiots and bested them with a literal finger. Deadlifts are relatively unusual in that the activation pattern of the eccentric differs significantly from the concentric. You can't train practical strength without it.
Great video! I certainly understand what I have to do to improve my deadlifts
There are those arguing about the theory of how to do a “perfect” deadlift and there are those actually putting in the work. Action over abstraction.
"that's for *********."
GG.
Part of being a man is knowing how to accept instruction. Maybe do a video or article about that. Great demo of the lift and how to accept instructions
What about omitting the eccentric phase of the deadlift during peak phase of endurance training? Ie dropping the weight to prevent tiny tearing developed during eccentric work, which can become strains during a high load of sprint training. This would only be during the weeks when training to increase race pace, or before your marathon, or what ever endurance sport you may be doing? I do this, not because I can't put the bar down gently, that's silly. People can always lower more than what they can lift. The purpose is neuromuscular training not increasing strength or size. Keeping muscle fiber recruitment high so you have more rebound during running? I think that is a sound argument for dropping the weight. (Sources? nope sorry. Too many books to remember)
"Never leave contact with your legs.."
I would love to get one on one instruction from Rip. I imagine he's in high-demand and that's pretty rare nowadays.
I like Mark Rippetoe because he just seems like a no nonsense type of guy that just keeps it real. Sort of like a Stone Cold Steve Austen lol. Love it.
Love the way you teach
I moustache you a question.
Awesome vid. Not bullshit. Straight to the point. Thank you.
haahah look at those "I promise I'm a man" mustaches
bet they've never even seen a penny farthing.
+mrbtapir or been to an agreeable box social.
Bully comment, good man.
kungfuman82 Cry baby, bad man
RUclips Example hahahaha come on its funny
great vid! hopefully a bench tutorial to round out this series?
I think a lot of powerlifters disagree with his stance on dropping the bar, it seems like a lot of extra strain on your back for very limited gain. I can't remember who said something like: "Nothing good happens in the second part of a deadlift, but plenty of bad things can."
Steinn Halldorsson Yeah, I think this was misrepresented in the vid. You drop the bar but keep your hands round it to guide it down. There is no way you can safely slowly lower the bar once you start getting really heavy. Just don't drop it at the top.
Respect to you Mr. Rippetoe
So awesome. Great lesson.
Art of Manliness Anyone else automatically think #crossfit at the 6:40 mark?! Loved it!
Get that rest video up!!
thank You, Coach
Great presentation, got a lot out of all these videos
There's a guy at my gym who always drops a barbell when he's done pressing from chest high on to the floor, every damn time. Next time I see him Imma send him Mark's regards.
Instantly subscribed.
Sees Mark Rippetoe. Subs immediately.
I'll take my advice from Brian Shaw. His hips are much lower and he still generates power, this position is brutal for the back.
I wish you guys did one of these for power cleans
