This is the best explanation I’ve seen. I’m a fairly experienced lifter (600# range) but the way you explained tension was like a lightbulb going off. I tried it at the gym and ended up in a lower hip position then usual, more importantly felt like the bar was exploding off the floor. I’ve already sent this to all my lifting buddies. 🙏 appreciate the video man.
Really loved the way you explained this! Something I've been struggling with personally and with my clients. Definitely implementing these cues on my next deadlift session!
Amazing video, been working out for about 5 month, love doing deadlift manliest shit ever, but never felt like I was doing them right until I tried what you said with keeping the tension and lowering myself down until I feel like the bar is going to float, feels amazing. Much love bro, u deserve way more hype, keep up the great content and you will blow up
Watched this video about 5 times while at the gym today, and increased my weight from 365 to 385. My form still needs some work but just understanding how to brace, from one of your other videos, and not waste energy keeping myself and the weight balanced on the initial pull has been life changing. I hoping to get to 400 in the coming month. Thank you!
Great video, I know conventional deadlifting is considered cheating because it's so easy compared to sumo, but it's nice to see you explained it as well.
Lol cheating? Lol I guess the deadlift records were done cheating, no? There is nothing wrong with pulling conventional or sumo. It's really just preference and finding what style suits your body frame the best.
@@rafaelalamilla5583 Big time cheating, Thor's 501 deadlift? not only was it conventional, but rumor has it that he took 6 grams of creatine that morning.
Love the cue to find hip tension as a feeling instead of seeking an arbitrary ideal height for your anthropometrics. Nice video and appreciate your content
Bryce, this was so well explained. This was the hardest piece of the deadlift for me to figure out was my hip height. The angles and explanations of low, medium and high were bang on the money and easy to understand. As you said, play around with it and learn what works best. Thank you again.
Bingo 🎯, did you get it yet? I just pulled 405lbs conventional deadlift on two attempts. Yet the first attempt my hips rose first, didn’t pull enough slack from the bar, back rounding and horrible bracing and breathing. The second attempt on 405 lbs deadlift got my hips lower with minimal hip rising, better breathing and bracing also.
I'm a subscriber that missed this one. After straining my hamstring on a WR (Masters) attempt in Nov, I'm looking for a different setup. Good points here that I will work to incorporate!
I tried your tip today. It’s quite difficult for a beginner to do it correctly during the whole set. I found myself either having to pause between each rep to set everything thing up or to loose it during the exercise.
I found this channel about a year ago. I have been looking for it for the last month to review techniques… sadly I did not subscribe and it was not that easy to find. So… don’t forget to subscribe people ! This is good info !
Any thoughts on what might be "going wrong" when right before lockout the tailbone area of the spine feels the most tension/vulnerable? Hard to explain, but it happens to me from time to time when pulling conventional and it is that feeling that led to some lower back popping/injury in the past.
Awesome videos. Any chance you’ll do a conventional deadlift how to video in the future? I may switch to Sumo just because you have a How-To video for it!
Great video, I get super annoyed with this. My long legs make my ideal starting position look like a SLDL and I get told I’m doing it wrong and to “sit back” which takes my shoulders way behind the bar. Then I get told “oh well you’re just not mobile enough.” Like sure I’ll just mobility drill my way to shorter femurs 🙄
I also have long femurs. Like my hips are barely lower then shoulder height. My it feels best. I can also pull by sitting back into it but the lift no longer feels like a deadlift and is too squatty
Could you tell me whats the difference between 2ct pause deadlift (barely off the floor) and 2ct pause deadlift (just off floor) in calgary barbell plan 5-8 week . I can't get it :D
Kind of confused because I watched 5 pillars for sumo by Juggernaut and they stated to squat down to the bar before bracing. As opposed to pushing your butt back in this video. I'm not sure which method is more proper?
Ive been doing conventional for a while and have done sumo in the past. Looking now and trying this drill, i definitely feel tension alot more when hips are more down when i tried it. Could that mean I could be stronger sumo?
I’m still struggling with this tension thing, also I’ll keep trying to send in a video for form check Friday lol. You guys probably get too many lifters sending in clips .
Great content Bryce! I have heard from some place here on youtube that thinking of placing your shoulder blade directly above the bar would help you find which of the high, medium, low position you show here in the vid that is the best for you. Problem I have with that is that I think all of them do that 😆. Shoulder blades are big. Maybe the low are too far back but the high and medium are close. Do you think there are any help thinking about the shoulder blades? What would you say is your optimal stance Bryce?
This is a great short video on the topic. To add to this, once you get into the position that Bryce mentions, try to pull the slack out of the bar (Dave Tate has a great video on this). Pulling the slack out of the bar will help you build tension in your body (legs, lats, core, etc.) and set you up to initiate the pull. I see this as the icing on the cake for what Bryce has you que up in this video.
Solid explanation 🙏
I really don't understand how this will help my bench press but ok
😭😭😭😭😭
Have you tried widening your grip? I hear that helps
Arch harder

This is literally the best deadlift video I’ve ever watched. I review it almost every deadlift day.
This actually helped my deadlift tremendously, this video should be trending

this is by far the most detailed tutorial ive found to learn sumo, ur the goat
Always top tier quality content, never just a video for new video's sake. Killing it for years Bryce🤘
Awesome stuff, CBB does it right.
Spot on, many goers dont tell u this, literally is first you thing u should do when grab the bar
This is great info ! I credit my deadlift and squat progress to the content from this channel.

Conventional cheating compared to sumo? I have never heard that one before, usually people argue other way around.
@@moistmayonese1205 I think he's confused 😂😂😂
I got the humour man, don't worry ;)
Excellent SESSION.....Thankyou for your instructor
Thoughts on fast setups like John Haack and professionalweakguy (Chris Cardoza)?
Love the cue to find hip tension as a feeling instead of seeking an arbitrary ideal height for your anthropometrics. Nice video and appreciate your content
You just saved my deadlifts thank you man !:)
Glad we could help!

Ok, so when I pull the slack out of the bar and then proceed to lift it’s one plate at a time with the pull.
Awesome video man!! Really helpful, especially the leg press cue.
The idea of 405 just floating sounds great
It'll happen

3:46 Why you leanin back when deadlifting?
I NEEED THIS BADASS SHIRT NOW . Also awesome vid as usual
I like this because it's not some absolutist "thou shalt not knee cave" drivel it's actual technique. Good explanation
I love good content and i love good quality content!!
Great video. Insane editing. Thank you!
Beautiful video, great explanation.
I apreciate the different options showed in video
3:25
Bar float off the floor. 🤔? So kinda pealing one plate off the ground at a time from all that tension then. Right?
Bryce, you have changed since I last visited this channel! Keep up the good instructions 🤗
Welcome back!
Started watching, noticed the shirt and immediately left to go buy it, and then returned to the video
thanks bryce! keep up the good work
Amazing quality and editing! Great information as well
Much appreciated!
Excellent presentation!
This was dope. Really useful. Thanks for covering conventional -and- sumo; appreciated.
Perfect video! Learned alot.
Great content!! Thanks Bryce!!
Super helpful and concise video - thank you!
Pracess! 😡 Pracess! 😂 Another awesome video! Thank you🙏
Bro your vids quality are insane 🤯🤯
Appreciate it
Man this video helped so much

Thank you, really useful. Going to give this a try tomorrow!
Best of luck!
very nice and informative video
Thank you very much Bryce for your work.
Glad you liked it!
This man changed my life...

I could see this video being done for squat too 💪 great vid !!
He sounds like a boss and explains like one also 😁👍❗
great vid! wow this is what ive been really struggling with for my deadlifts
Happy to help!

Amazing video. Also, where did you get those shoes? By god they look slick as all f*#k.
soilid video my man!
Excellent video thanks doing it my man
Any time!
Loved this!
cant believe this info is free bro
Music suggestion for Bryce. You have to check out the latest Soul Glo album Diaspora Problems. Best hardocre punk album this year for sure
gnarly hair dude
So use the slack of the bar to pull yourself into position?
Awesome tips
Awesome videos. Any chance you’ll do a conventional deadlift how to video in the future? I may switch to Sumo just because you have a How-To video for it!
You can use 99% of the concepts from the sumo video on conventional. Except the stance width stuff haha
Hi Bryce, I see that you are wearing the Sabo heavy duty shoes, do you find them better than the pro?
Will be making a video soon!
Great video, thank you. This was one of two “ah-ha” moments for me when it comes to technique. Outstanding content.
Goated for this
at the risk of sounding weird , bryce is exceptionally good looking

No problem 😊

Just different methods, no right or wrong. Try both and do whats best for you.
@@cg9887so many ways to skin a cat then?

what shoes are those? @calgary barbell

Come by the livestream on Friday!

I need that longsleeve lol. Any chance you guys ship to europe?
Of course we do!
After watching your video I got to know that you're having nice shoes 👍
Hell yes!
New SABO shoe review please!
It'll be coming up soon!

Deadlifts are great for strength but def not for size
