What exercises/topics do you want to learn about next? Let me know in this comment thread so I can make content to help you!
Thank you sir for providing us with such quality content, I have a question regarding core bracing pratice/training that is done with a kettlebell, I don't have access to kettlebell so can I do the core practice with a dumbbell on my belly? Again thanks for the great content
@@ncb4_69 yes you could do it with a dumbbell - just may not be as comfortable
I want to learn how to pull shoulder back before the ascent of deadlift.Any cues would be helpful
Can you please share some details about the bar placement in deadlifts? Almost everyone recommends 1inch from the shin but on the descent of my deadlift it's a little far...maybe 2inch. And please share some details about the descent of deadlifts
Please do a video or youtube short on turf toe! I've been suffering from it for a few years.
You have no idea how impactful your channel has been on my lifting / PT / life journey. Thank you 🙏🏽 never stop!!
Honored to help!
At first I learn to squat better through your latest squat stance tutorial. Now I can fix my deadlift problem. And all for free.
Your content is priceless. Thanks a lot!
Glad to help.
Greatest video series ever
Thank you!!
Thanks so much for this comparison - and to your guests. I’ve been watching “tutorials” and yours is the only one that compares different disciplines - totally get it now! Thank you
I think that bit about pushing knees out will be really helpful for my deadlifts. Thank you!
Your channel is a game changer. Can’t thank you enough!
Needed tips on dead lifting and knee to immediately search for SU! Loved this video I’m going to watch the others too 🙏🏾
Thankyou so much! This was wonderful😭🙏🏻
That is informative and good to understand. Thank you.
This was a great video to remind people how to properly deadlift! Great job Squat university! I commonly see these faults coaching and training beginners who have never touched a barbell before. It’s amazing what simple verbal or tactile cues can do to fix a persons problem! The key is in the repetition and the consistent practice for optimal follow through. My favorite cue is activating and fire your lats to stiffen up your back and create stability! I also like using the cue “imagine the barbell scraping your thigh” throughout the entire lift.
Glad you liked those parts of the video!!! Thanks for checking it out!
This channel is simply incredible. You and the experts you bring on give out such valuable information that not only improves my lifts, but also my physical health. You’re a legend for sharing your knowledge for free!
I’m honored to hear you’re enjoying the content!
Thanks for this tutorial! Matt and Chad are great!
Will try these on my next workout.
You’re so welcome!!!
Man after discovering Matt Wennings several months ago, all my lifts went up in the best way possible.
I've been watching your videos for a while and they have helped me so much. Thank you :) !
I’m so glad! You’re welcome
Beautiful instruction. You gentlemen are amazing explainers.
Glad you liked this one
Very nice video, he took away many doubts . Thanks.
Glad you liked it!
Great explanation! Thanks guy!
You’re welcome
Thanks man , much help
Lovely, thank you brothers 💜
You’re welcome!
Great vid I’ve been heavy lifting for the first time in a while and the deadlift is quite a tough exercise I was terrified of how poor form can cause injuries but I watched vids like this constantly during training to perfect my form keeping your shins close to the bar bend over then push until your shins touch the bar putting hips into position push your chest through straightening your back legs to the side next to your forearms lift up keeping contact with the legs and following it down I’m still trying to find my weight 65kg seems like a challenge but I may try heavier although my abs are rather weak so I might have to continue with weights I’ve used to get my and used to these compound lifts
This is GOLD!!!
Its crazy how all this is completely free. Internet can be a wonderful place if used the right way.
I’ve got dynamic effort banded conventional deadlifts tomorrow. this is perfect timing.
What an amazing video, so much knowledge between you guys!!! Could you clarify the shoulders position for the deadlift? Seem to be quite a few different opinions out there.. Shoulders slightly in front the bar? Or behind the bar? Thank you again for all the effort that you putt in all those videos
So a conventional deadlift will usually be posterior deltoid over the bar where as an Olympic lifting deadlift will be slightly forward so more so arm pit over the bar - this blog explains it in much more detail: vaughnweightlifting.com/2022/07/11/start-position-snatch-clean-vs-conventional-deadlift-the-basics/
Hard core information. Thanks
You’re welcome! Thanks for checking out the video
Nice video thanks, stay blessed
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
Amazing tutorial
Can you please do a video regarding the deadlift and different body proportions?
Can everyone regardless of body proportions do the DL safely and effectively from the floor?
I don't know if I need to perform my DLs elevated, because I try and follow all of your instructions, but I still feel my back working way too much and don't feel much in my glutes. I have long legs and a comparatively bit of a short torso. Or perhaps I need to switch to sumo?
I've learned a lot from all your tutorials regarding the deadlift (and thank you so much for that!), but I'm struggling to figure out, how not to overload my low back and instead work my glutes and grow my strength safely.
I hope you see this and send some help my way! Keep up the great work!
This is really helpful at first I started deadlift I use too doo with really good/ decent form but recently I fcked up the form even today I did it cause It's back day but surely I'll try it next time with these tips
Love this
Thank you Squat University ,
This may sound weird though, but is it essential to breathe and brace before the initiation of the lift ? as covered in earlier videos by Dr.Horschig along with the Dr. S.McGills big 3.
thank you so much for this video. quick question can my toes be pointed out?
Great video!!
Thanks
Ty for the video!! 🙏 What’s the song it ends w/ called?
Please make a video on barbell sumo squat......it would be a great help
I know this is about deadlift....lifting the weights up. But why nobody talks about putting the weights down? Especially when done in a slow motion. Please explain how to do it in a controlled way i.e. how to breathe, how to keep all the muscles engaged when putting the weights down.
If you check out my deadlift tutorial video with Martins Licis - he talks about that. His cue is “RDL to the knee and squat it down” with a big breath at the top before you lower.
@@SquatUniversity Thanks! I'm going to check it out.
Do you have any videos on lumbar spinal compression issues? I’ve been doing the bracing, but any time I lay on my back for bed, I wake up in pain. It takes a couple hours before I can even bend over even with the core bracing. Quads especially my rectus seems very stiff constantly and can’t get it to release but I feel that is what is pulling me to a more anterior tilt
Man I love deadlifts, I’m 185 pounds and started doing deadlifts in July, and couldn’t even get 300 pounds off the ground and now can rep 345 for 5 reps with good form at a shoulder width stance
Have you reviewed the proper form for the Olympic hex bar?
The U.S. Army uses a “trap bar” (hex bar?) for a Deadlift in the Army Combat Fitness Test.
Is there an advantage in using this trap/hex bar for those of us who want to achieve a certain continuing general health goal, but are not interested in testing the upper limits of our abilities?
I have Lower Back pain for more than a year, is it safe to do dead lift? And what can be the alternative?
What’s the correct position of the hands to grab the bar? Same direction (point in) or one pointing out and the other in? Thanks for your content!
It's just preference! Use and experiment with them all :)
Great video.
Great exercise.
I noticed his toes pointing basically straight forward.
Should they be pointed out a bit?
Everyone will be a little different but most people will be deadlift with their toes more forward than when they squat.
@@SquatUniversity Thanks for the answer.
I definitely point my toes out more than he does, but you're right it's less out than my squat stance.
Which all body parts should i feel while deadlifting?
Thank you for the great tips and cues. At 2:00 into the video you state "pulling your shoulder blades back and down"; however the shirtless gent has a large rounding of the thoracic spine even after using this technique. Is it ok for the thoracic spine to be that rounded when pulling the bar from the floor?
For some yes - the thoracic spine is different anatomically than the lumbar spine so some rounding there is still considered okay.
@@SquatUniversity Thank you for the info!
If you check the deadlift form video with Jamal browner and rondell hunte, both world record deadlifters, as well as Kevin booey's deadlift videos, they even cue thoracic rounding then engaging the lats.
@squat university do you know how to write programs?
Awesome shooting videos with ya brother - glad you guys like the collaboration 💯💯💯
It was a lot of fun! Thanks for making the trip again man!
I’m deadlifting 160 for the army but I really need to get to 340. Should I just keep adding little more weight gradually ?? Or just keep doing more reps of 160
What is your opinion on heel elevation during deadlifts? I wear steel toe cap trainers to work where I do a lot of deadlift style movements, and I find that with heels elevated I can get much deeper than when wearing flat heeled shoes and lift noticably more. Why is everyone ok with olympic lifters wearing heel elevated shoes to do clean and jerk or snatch, but when people talk about regular deadlifts everyone insists on flat shoes/barefoot?
Dumb question, but do you initially push with your legs?
What clean deadlift for ?
Can you please share some details about the bar placement in deadlifts? Almost everyone recommends 1inch from the shin but on the descent of my deadlift it's a little far...maybe 2inch.
I actually recommend almost touching the shin
I'm a SHW and I've been over 800 on the dead. Another on platform technique to set and lock the lats is roll the dead forward, set the grip, roll back to starting using the lats like the band exercise and poof, my fat ass is locked in, great grip and ready to defeat gravity.
I’m 6’3 and my legs are bigger than my torso. It gets really hard for me as i have to bend more to grab the barbell that ends up putting strain on my lower back every time I deadlift. Any tips to fix this?
Sounds like a mobility issue, where do you feel restriction as you’re bending to grab the bar? You should be able to maintain form all the way down
Does anyone know how to avoid and prevent bicep tear while deadlifting? That's been one of my major fears while pushing for PR's
Squats for years grew my beard!
So that’s why my beard grows so fast….
The hurt and pain in those eyes!!!! 🙏
Why the palms facing the opposide direction to eachother?
Saw rounding his back all the time
e loco
wich program are you use
Shoulders back is the same than pulling chest out? I was teach that was the form 😅
The lats work by pulling on the humerus in adduction, less by shoulder extension. if you roll shoulders forward and down your lats will be in a much stronger position to hold your arms in place. Combine this with flexion in your upper back and you have a very strong position.
If you try to make your upper back ”straight” while pulling back into your lats, you will have most of your upper back muscles in a shortened position , good luck using the force of your scapulae to hold a heavy deadlift without risking injury. Do not pull your shoulders back. Keep a steady position and push from the floor (which also deadlift panda talks about).
Tip 1 will make you weaker, not stronger. Your reflections on these dudes tips aren’t even the same conclusions.
Mitchell Hooper (which is the worlds strongest man and a very successfull physiotherapist) explains this clearly in his seminars.
Nice
The best channel I have come across RUclips. Very grateful to be learning so much on the channel that too for free. Someone pinch me!!
isn't shoulder retraction wrong ?
Dr Aaron, how can I join your channel?
not relevant to the video I know. When I squat on the side of my knee something shifts and 'pops'. I can see this happen and I get no pain when it does. Is this something I should be worried about? I avoid squats atm because I do not know the cause/ if it can cause me harm.
will deadlift cause sloped shoulders?
is dead lifting beneficial for runners
Sir, I don't fell quads in squat . Please fix this
Bro deadlifts 70Kg like it's nothing ☠️
It is nothing when done properly
@@Milan-mh4nc you are right!
It’s actually nothing
Sorry mate but it is nothing
Every thing is OK what they said BUT i would explain it diferent way like like they never exaggerated the power of legs the muscle mind conection toward the legs because the whole thing start from the leg not shoulder it is second part that what i am missing
I look way too up which I will finally start addressing next time I deadlift. I’ve strained both front and back of my neck way too many times. I don’t know why I never addressed this sooner. Better late than never.
Can you pls make a video on free squats also pls
I’ve got many on my channel but I’ll make more soon.
Does anybody realize that this guy is the fourth best strength coach in the world and my man is putting out free Contant, which is helping thousands surely you can start selling programs for everyone to benefit I check your website there’s nothing
I like Matt Wenning - Speaks plain English!
Easy to understand & many gems to learn!
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Someone told me once to keep my head down, looking to the floor and in line with my back to avoid too much stress on my spine. However, I see you guys here emphasizing to look higher, right?
I don't agree with the head upright thing, but only from my anecdotal pov.
Theseasonorg explains whole bible God bless
and i always thought a head position that kept the spine neutral was the right way 0_0
Does anyone else get hip pain when they try to set their deadlift closer to parallel (squat-esk)
@Squat U
🙋🏼
@@SquatUniversity Love your content sir. Big fan. Hope to get your consultation in future
For a channel this big you should have a higher quality mic
Are you referring to the voice over part I did or the live in person part of the video?
2:02
Great video. That intro was cheesy as hell lmao.
1:31
If you learn how to properly breath you will never have to question your form again. It’s that simple
Breathing is a very important part of creating necessary stiffness for the lift
당연하지ㅋㅋㅋ체형(장골, 대퇴골, 상체, 팔길이 비율) 따라 데드바뀌는건 당연하고 스트롱맨하고 파워리프터도 데드가 다른데 역도식이랑 다르다는건 모르기 힘들지
Perfect form for one person, might not be perfect form for the next
yeah, ima snap my back
With proper form, you'll feel it more in your hamstrings and glutes.
Good video. But body dynamics is important. Short leg, long torso people will never have perfect dead lift form or success.
I think it just comes down to understanding basic principles and once those are met the form in the start position will look different for each person but can still be consisted perfect for that person
Mitch Hopper would disagree with a lot of these tips
Too funny most of the so called “influencers” lift with their back😂 Their hips shoot up faster than a rat up a pipeline 😂😂
where is the muscle😳
I don't believe in squats and deadlifts, there are easier, less risky exercises that can accomplish the same.
Barefoot hippies, man...
🤷🏼
Why don’t you demonstrate the lift doing 315 lbs instead of 135 lbs . Every guy will have great form at 135 lbs . Pointless tutorial
*Waste of time as there are far better tutorials on YT*
You should have explained only one movement instead 😢
