OMG i though i was stupid doing the wiggle but it just felt right to do, and after this video I will keep doing it and start spreading the voice, keep up the amazing work💪🏻
A cue I’ve found useful is to feel it in your lats before you start pulling it up. It’s hard to feel tension in your lats in that position without stiffening your entire core.
This is a squat deadlift, meaning he is recruiting more drive using his quads, finishing the movement with a hip honge, hence his bent up knees. The hip hinge deadlift recruits an even drive from from the quads, hips and glutes, knees slightly more upright, and ass sticking out more.
I was looking specifically for the ideal hip mechanics during the deadlift movement. Thank you! I learned to keep hips neutral, rather than rotate inwards or outwards. This helped me perform a deadlift without back pain. I hurt myself doing Jiu Jitsu without properly warming up my back.
I know this video is mainly addressing back pain, but other cues to keep in mind as well that he didn’t mention here are activating the lats by pulling them back and down and shoulders in like over bar.
Thank you so much squat uni I spent years deadlifting and having my back hurt for days after but I learnt how to brace properly through your videos and now I not only deadlift bigger numbers but squat bigger pain free
Wow!! The man is wearing an India insignia jersey...Glad to see that. Big fan of you sir and i hope that someday I may get my body-deviations checked by u😅
Pretty sure this is a clean pull, and not a conventional deadlift. The giveaways are the bar position (forward of mid-foot) and the knees forward of the elbows.
Fcked my back up trying to do 245 last week. Found out it’s because my butt wasn’t low enough when first lifting up. Instead it was kinda raised😂😂😂 kinda glad I got that wake up call at just 245lb instead of a year from now when I’m hopefully deadlifting a lot more weight.
Hey man, I love ur vids. Can u plz plz do one explaining why out of nowhere a few weeks ago, I started getting very intense pain on the outer part of my lower legs (on and to the side of the tibialis major) when I squat very deep. It’s extra bad when I add a little bit of bounce at the bottom of a squat. I
So should you push your butt out or tuck it in? I've seen videos that say pushing your butt out causes problems, but that's the ONLY thing that's helped stretch out my my lower spine and relieve my chronic low back pain.
one thing i learnt is to never arch your back like the guy in this reel. keep it either straight or use thoracic rounded back technique. having your back excessively arched does not mean its good, although it might look risk free, it is what sprained my lower back and made me unable to deadlift for a month straight
I think I have bad form but I’ve never experienced lower back pain I usually feel it in my lats and my glutes does anyone know why that is and if it’s something I should be aware about?
I don’t feel like the cue of digging your feet into the floor compared to pulling the bar up helps me; they feel the same to me and to Newton’s third law of motion.
I've had lower back pain for weeks , the pained stopped a few days ago and as soon as I started squatimg again , by back pain came right back with a really painful sharp pain , deadlift and squat hurts the most
@squatuniversity How are you able to rub the bar against your shins without skinning them up? I finish my deadlifts with at least one or two skinned areas on my shins.
Hey can you suggest something for hip mobility for deadlifts? I have poor hip mobility and cannot lower my hip with correct posture while doing a deadlift.
I could well be wrong and maybe body habitus comes into play but at the end of the vid, are you lowering your butt too much? Kinda squatting the weight up?
He definitely is. This dude is all information, no execution. His back is hyper extended in every "form" he teaches. (For those who don't know, if ur back is arched back like his in an attempt to "keep it flat", your core cannot be engaged and brace like he says. If there were any weight on the bar his "flat back" would immediately break at the start and we'd all be making fun of him for trying to teach something he can't do.)
@@kamalsharma7958 actually, he's not. You cited no information or reason for stating that falsity, whereas I explained exactly why I was right in my comment. You cannot properly engage your core muscles with an open core. He needs to achieve a neutral spine position which almost everyone has deemed to be an arched back. It is not. He is in fact, hyper extended and his "brace" is an air pocket in his chest. Again, with 70%+ on the bar, we'd see this all fall apart.
That's too vague though. Most people brace wrong because they think bracing is squeezing your core, instead of the outward pushing of pressure in the abdomen.
I did an explosive rep and my lat had a sudden and sharp pain then it resonated for a little while (like when your legs have that static feeling after sitting for awhile). Is this an injury or a nerve shock (i've noticed i have a lot of nerve related pain, like lightning pain throughout my forearm after hammer curl)
No u are thinking of a powerlifter kind of hip hinge ,he is making this movement more lower portion than lower back ,weightlifter deadlift the same way .
I know this sound rhetorical, but with the proper form shown in this short, I can only do 310lb for 4 reps instead of 6 with slightly sloppier form, is this expected? I mean tried these tips and feel way better so I don’t care if reps go down lol
Some people require a higher hip technique, and in fact this guy himself might benefit from that as well. Everyone has an optimal deadlift starting position so worry about what you’re doing and not what it looks like
Yeah he’s almost behind the bar. He can either think about putting his hips up higher or try to get his shoulders over the bar instead of behind. The rest of this is accurate for back pain but his position is weak off the floor
It’s cause he doesn’t know how to deadlift. Basically if you use good technique you won’t hurt yourself. He will hurt himself if he actually tries to train that way
@@yoeyyoey8937 yeah its true, he doesnt even look like he deadlifts more than 275 and hes preaching good technique, i think its disingenuous much like a fat person preaching a good diet.
@@jmcleda8138 tell me about it. Now imagine a fat person has a dietician degree and a huge social media following and people take him seriously because he works with lean people 😂 lean people that aren’t even following his diet to get that way, but he adds little things here and there like spinach and then talks about how healthy it is and why everyone should do it 😂
Deadlift is good for bone density and strength. Something people need. Especially older people. It’s a very healthy exercise if done correctly. U don’t have to lift too heavy to get good benefits from the deadlift.
Aint nobody following that advice. Who the hell braces before going down? only weirdos do that, you will have no power doing that let alone to will. You will be out of breath in no time.
@@MikeRepluk Deadlift's are supposed to be a posterior chain exercise, why change it to a squattier (more quad biased) exercise? Conventional deadlift's are a bit meh but stiff leg deadlifts are a great exercise for hamstrings, glutes and spinal erectors

Dude you have poor understanding of deadlift mechanics muscular wise. Thats what hapoens when you cheat the motion with superior leverages. Long arms short torso.

"Do you have back pa-"
I mean... hey his advice might as well cure cancer itself lol
normal deadlift experience
Focusing on keeping my chest up and proud has really helped me too. Forces me to keep my back in the correct position.
Are you extending your lower back?
Chest up rips down
Done right, squats and deadlifts are a game changer in any fitness program. Thanks for helping us learn
OMG i though i was stupid doing the wiggle but it just felt right to do, and after this video I will keep doing it and start spreading the voice, keep up the amazing work💪🏻
I also feel like it grounds your feet 👣
The wiggle is da trick! I love shackin my ass so I been doing it for years.

Yes. Tighten the upper back to set the lower back
pulling the slack out of the bar does this really well
Glad to see you wearing an Indian Jersey. Love from 🇮🇳

That breathing exercise with the hands is great in it's own rite, makes you aware of the quadratus lumborum👍🏽💪🏾💯
Perfect. Theres so many youtubers who are telling you to pull rather than push.
Thank you so much squat uni I spent years deadlifting and having my back hurt for days after but I learnt how to brace properly through your videos and now I not only deadlift bigger numbers but squat bigger pain free
I don’t know why… I think I am falling for you with every video of you that I watched. Must be of your honesty ❤
Squeezing lats and slightly moving knees outward helped me a lot.
Exactly what I was looking for🔥
Wow!! The man is wearing an India insignia jersey...Glad to see that. Big fan of you sir and i hope that someday I may get my body-deviations checked by u😅
You've helped me so much in my lifting journey. Ty!
I always have back pain after deadlifts. It makes me sad
Same here. Anyways are you ok now?
Do you have back pain or have you just …you know, used your back to lift something therefore the muscle is sore?
stop deadlifting, it's very easy to have a herniated disc, it's not worth it, maybe the health of your spine is less valuable than doing deadlifts
@@vicente09a-g92 grow up 😂
Lift with the legs not with the back. This squat style deadlift also reduces the chance of getting a hernia surgery (so not just a back pain reason).
That wiggle is a game changer. Instantly all paint stop
Demo guy has an unbeatable hairline
Inverted recession lmao
Well spotted 🤣
I was wondering if anything was going to be in the comments. I don’t feel so bad nown
Probably goes to a rabbi for a haircut
Khabib lost Cousin
Glutes: "Dude, we're literally impossible to not use".
My apartment gyms weights are slightly smaller sized so they are funky to start I had to get way better to not hurt myself

Funny, I've always wiggled into my position. Nice to see a professional back my 'theory' up

What about on the descent? Just remain braced?
Thank God bless

Only on the descent
I wish I saw this video before I popped my back a couple times. I can no longer do any deadlifts or squats
Lol!!! Same here brotha….same here….
Oh well, it is what it is. You live and learn.
I’m sure you can but need to rehab it and start from scratch
I've had lower back pain for weeks , the pained stopped a few days ago and as soon as I started squatimg again , by back pain came right back with a really painful sharp pain , deadlift and squat hurts the most
Pulling up is easy now. How do you lower the bar properly w/o hurting your lower back.
important cues!!
I get back pain when lowering on my deadlifts.
Prop to him for generating back pain with telekinesis.
@squatuniversity How are you able to rub the bar against your shins without skinning them up? I finish my deadlifts with at least one or two skinned areas on my shins.
what do u mean activate ur hips?
Hey can you suggest something for hip mobility for deadlifts? I have poor hip mobility and cannot lower my hip with correct posture while doing a deadlift.
Top bracing only works for singles

@Jordan Stravolo actually he is hip hinging properly which is appearing like hyperextending .

@Jordan Stravolo most people have rounded posture .Powerlifting community often have thoroic flexion .
@@jordanstravolo5111 Olympic lifters join the chat to prove you wrong .Debate over.
how do avoid hernia with this excessive breathing core technique?
Yeah, I can't remember all that
When do you breathe ? When your up ?
TL;DR Brace your core
That's too vague though. Most people brace wrong because they think bracing is squeezing your core, instead of the outward pushing of pressure in the abdomen.

Is this an injury or a nerve shock (i've noticed i have a lot of nerve related pain, like lightning pain throughout my forearm after hammer curl)
So brace twice? Up top and at the bottom?
What is the problem if the higher hip region (piriformis) hurts when you start the deadlift? Is it the same as lower back?
His deadlift doesn’t look good. He sets his hips way too low and therefore almost squats the weights up.
True
No u are thinking of a powerlifter kind of hip hinge ,he is making this movement more lower portion than lower back ,weightlifter deadlift the same way .
What about shoulder pain during deadlifts?

Why do i had pain on the right side of my upper glutes doing conventional deadlifts??
Can you comment on deadlifting with a high hip starting position vs what’s shown here?
Some people require a higher hip technique, and in fact this guy himself might benefit from that as well. Everyone has an optimal deadlift starting position so worry about what you’re doing and not what it looks like
This is not a deadlift, it’s a clean-pull.
If you are not aggressive you won't be able to pull large weights. Yes the technique is important, but you have to be aggressive off the ground.
Where is the Mr Hairline's forehead 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Looks like youre squatting your deadlift, i think your hips should be a bit higher so you can pull with your hamstrings

Nothing works. You gotta have straight posture, strong core, long torso otherwise the back is going to bend as you lift heavy.
