fuck me silent Mike that tip u gave about sitting back on the Deadlift. I always knew that was correct and I have always done that, but I never was told about how it can make the pull easier. fucking blew my mind
I think the coolest thing about this video is looking back on Alan's struggles and success. In some of his recent videos he talked about some of the financial struggles he went through in the past few years and how he's just now really doing well. Amazing how big this probably was for him when his gym started getting this type of attention, and guys like Mark Bell and Omar Isuf coming out to train, teach, and make content at Untamed Strength. Alan = the GOAT and is truly inspirational. #AmericanDream
You guys always give the most badass deadlift instruction. There's a 60 second video that Mark did years ago that first made me a deadlifter. Awesome vids and great instruction. Loved the vid. PS Silent Mike's looking yoked dude!
Was a really great event, I enjoyed being there quite a bit. Got some great advice from all the guys, and Mark gave my girlfriend some really great detailed advice on her training as well. Great group of guys.
The big chest cue causes some to lose core tightness...of course, you can always cue core tightness afterward. Regarding training the squat for more inexperienced lifters.
i did the whole thing by accident. noticed that when i "bent" the bar, the amount of force that i needed to generate was a lot less than when my lats weren't activated
Its hilarious how many people in this comment section are taking smellys jokes seriously. "This idiot said his head is 97 pounds" "mark bell wasn't fucking lifting in the 50s" .
13:20 really good instruction: make your lats so tight you cant get tickled in the armpit. and lemme tell you about my weird situation from Shitthatneverhappensland, wich only happens if you re taught to hold back tourette's tics. i now understand the upperback a lot better. in the deadlift i always teached about the fishingrod effect but i failed to get a deeper understanding of it. but only i happen to have posterior pelvic tilt (anterior is more common), combine that with weak deep cervical flexors and that all with a big bulge on the top of my abs, i couldnt figure it out for years; years i say!!! recently i discovered that i have postpelvtilt and weak deep cervical flexors. everyone has them tightened so every youtube video was about that.. but now i understand so lets ramble about the fishingrod: as the load transfers from the lats to the trapezius, you see the upperback rounding and when locking out you need to use your deep flexors for retracting the shoulders and driving your head back.
So from watching Brendan Tietz's videos, and this one, are you using your whole feet of our 1st and 5th metatarsal head and heels to push off the ground? Or just your heels as you load up your hamstrings?
I really kick my own butt because I wish reverse grip didn't feel strange to me. I am so use to hook grip and I want to change it so I can hit higher lifts.
How do you know where you stand in terms of strength? At what point are you considered a strong lifter? For ex, I've been training for 2 years now (bodybuilding style, powerlifting never interested me really) and my DL pr is 545 lb, what would that be considered?
So when Mike talks about pulling the bar towards the legs does he actually push the bar against his shins or is it just a kind of a cue to imagine bending the bar around the legs?
you say you had silent mike deadlifting in a different form than the default form his body naturally goes to during a deadlift.. so when he did the 705lb deadlift he reverted back to his default form, would it not be safer for him to deadlift in his default form ( albeit, that it is a safe ) above a specific weight percent like 70-80%? making form changes at 90%+ is an easy way to get injured, this might utilise his body's natural strongest position. But I'm no way near as experienced as you guys, what do you think ?
Concerning the protection I thought that Andrey said that he would try to avoid a belt or any other accessoires. So I follow this rule since then trying not to use a belt up to 70-80% of my max to strengthen the core more. Does that make sense?
Excellent video. I love this channel, so much useful information and great characters. Oh and Mark, my old lady says you look alot cuter with weight on you than a few years ago. I agree, nohomo tho. only on days that end with y.
Hook grip SAVAGE!
Alan Thrall fake
+Al Simmons (Spawn) say those words to your natty hamster
Toversnol EU I was internally screaming that the whole time
Hook Grip is my Bae Grip ;)
"You wanna be stiff."
Waited for Mark to say "hey now" and wasn't disappointed.
fuck me silent Mike that tip u gave about sitting back on the Deadlift. I always knew that was correct and I have always done that, but I never was told about how it can make the pull easier. fucking blew my mind
fuck me emir EC, top fucking comment
+JoshDG92 I can't wait to implement this. That shit totally clicked in my head. It will definitely help me!
yeah I am subbing mikes channel for that tip.
It was great when George Leeman taught him that on video!
yeah silent mike is an absolute hero, one of my top youtubers for sure, his approach to coaching is something you can apply and understand very easily

Silent Mike's cues starting at 20:30 for leaning back and using hams were huge for me. Thanks for the tips!
Yeah, that blew my mind.
the silent mike tip at 20:00 is gold
Hands down the best lifting channel. The amount of brilliant free content ye guys put out is crazy.. keep it coming.
Every time you and Silent Mike speak on deadlifts. I learn something new. Thanks!
The crowd did not get Marks humor although I dont know how he determined his head weighed 97 pounds.
22:44 epiphany! That explanation made total sense, thanks.
"backwards broad jump" never heard of that before but it clicked immediately.
20:23 dude goes from beginner to proper DL with 1 cue from Silent Mike. :)
Might have been something he picked up from when they had George Leeman on!
This is about the greatest vid on DL I've ever seen.
Great video. The 'falling back' has been something I've tried to find my balance with for a while now. This helps, now to practice.
Im kinda tall (6,4) and the technique you showed the tall you literally increased my deadlift max with 40kg!
You're not kinda, you are!
“Kinda” hahaha boy get outta here
I don't know how this information from Mark and Mike could be any better. Extremely high high quality
That was a great seminar. For someone who has dead lifted for years, I feel like I learned something. Thanks Mark Mike and everyone!
15:53 didn't realize alan was that tall
Ray Yeah he should be on the nba
Ray alan tall
rumour has it, Alan's beard creates its own gravity field
Ray he was standing on something i reckon
Lés Énfant Térriblés yes, his own feet.
all jokes were missed that day
'When i started powerlifting in the 50's' 😂
Silent Mike's comment on shooting back when people lose their grip was a subtle but excellent piece of advice
"my head weighs 97 pounds" 😂
You guys always give the most badass deadlift instruction. There's a 60 second video that Mark did years ago that first made me a deadlifter. Awesome vids and great instruction. Loved the vid. PS Silent Mike's looking yoked dude!
watched this this morning and applied some of the principles in my deadlift session just now and it makes a huge difference. great vid. thanks alot
We need that upper-outer glute toning tutorial
I was about to go study...
fuck yea glad to see Alan thrall making it in your channel. dude deserves dome pr
Was a really great event, I enjoyed being there quite a bit. Got some great advice from all the guys, and Mark gave my girlfriend some really great detailed advice on her training as well. Great group of guys.
Mike's a good coach..alotta decent cues
I like how simplistic that set-up is cuing
This and layne nortons videos are the best info you can find on deadlift.
Lol layne who injures himself every yeat? Nah man his form is shit
His records speak for themselves. Injuries happen, especially when you're training as hard as he does.
Marks stance info really helped me out. Great info as always man.
Best deadlift youtube I've watched.
It looks like Mike was inadvertently using the 'Frantz rocker' technique on deads. Lol
Good video guys! Thanks for posting the seminar.
That falling backward part sounds about right. Gonna try it out.
Awesome video! One of the best on deadlifts I've seen! Thanks a lot guys.
Silent Mike likes to say erector a lot...I think I found his nicknames new nickname... Silent Mike "The Erector"...
Shawn Ward or Mike the silent erector haha
@12:12 STIFF!. They so wanted to crack a joke..... So much so, Mark turns red just holding back lol
7:08 Mannequin challenge?
Very informative! I hope to see you guys in Brazil someday!
Oh my! You guys are masterful! I love these cues.
I never knew you should fall back with the weight. That was a great tip! Now what about someone bringing their shoulder backs to help lock the back.
The big chest cue causes some to lose core tightness...of course, you can always cue core tightness afterward. Regarding training the squat for more inexperienced lifters.
SuperFatTraining is the best channel out there !!!
thanks silent mike for the amazing advice.
SMH 7:18 on their phone checking facebook whilst Mark's teaching
TJ Strength he was putting it on airplane mode.
Maybe Alan sent noodz.
TJ Strength he was sending some DMs of his D to Mark probably
i did the whole thing by accident. noticed that when i "bent" the bar, the amount of force that i needed to generate was a lot less than when my lats weren't activated
when are you coming out to CALI and doing some deadline/squat seminars...PS.Mike your teasing me with those shoes....I need those shoes in my life!
*deadlifts
awesome thank you guys!!
Its hilarious how many people in this comment section are taking smellys jokes seriously. "This idiot said his head is 97 pounds" "mark bell wasn't fucking lifting in the 50s" .
As a tall guy with crispy hamstrings, this video is amazing!
mark bell is the man!!!
Mike droppin the George Leeman advice at 20:00!
13:20 really good instruction: make your lats so tight you cant get tickled in the armpit. and lemme tell you about my weird situation from Shitthatneverhappensland, wich only happens if you re taught to hold back tourette's tics. i now understand the upperback a lot better. in the deadlift i always teached about the fishingrod effect but i failed to get a deeper understanding of it. but only i happen to have posterior pelvic tilt (anterior is more common), combine that with weak deep cervical flexors and that all with a big bulge on the top of my abs, i couldnt figure it out for years; years i say!!! recently i discovered that i have postpelvtilt and weak deep cervical flexors. everyone has them tightened so every youtube video was about that.. but now i understand so lets ramble about the fishingrod: as the load transfers from the lats to the trapezius, you see the upperback rounding and when locking out you need to use your deep flexors for retracting the shoulders and driving your head back.
Was there any motivational talk in this seminar? I love those!
So from watching Brendan Tietz's videos, and this one, are you using your whole feet of our 1st and 5th metatarsal head and heels to push off the ground? Or just your heels as you load up your hamstrings?
I really kick my own butt because I wish reverse grip didn't feel strange to me. I am so use to hook grip and I want to change it so I can hit higher lifts.
laurie ybanez For the most part lifters pull more with a hook grip then a reverse grip.
Thanks for the assurance!
laurie ybanez yeah honestly hook grip is almost unlimited grip strength it's just how much abuse you're willing to take on your thumbs
Mark bell is a fucking beast!
15:47 that's EXACTLY my problem too. That's some great information from the crew to help us lanky fucks. Thanks a lot guys!
Excellent content 👌
Very informative. Thanks fellas
Really want to see the same thing for bench and squat now
wow there were some really shitty questions... but mark is such a pro, he did a great job explaining and answering the questions.
rude
are your feelings hurt?
should i get you some tampons?
awesome info and dope video
@14:04 Bro, come on, you have chuck tailors and don't know what a stiff legged deadlift is. Your killing me my dude. He had to be kidding.
Need more on sumo. It definitely doesn't feel the same to me cue wise especially in terms of sitting back vs dropping balls
How do you know where you stand in terms of strength? At what point are you considered a strong lifter? For ex, I've been training for 2 years now (bodybuilding style, powerlifting never interested me really) and my DL pr is 545 lb, what would that be considered?
Friggin awesome!!💪👍👌👏😎

Great job!
damn this vid helped a billion
wow tha trenvalar works wonders, he went from being a living lake floater to randy couture.

deadlift on back or leg day ? i kinda feel my arms and back is doing more work than my legs ....
Very informative. Thanks!
Mark looks so much healthier now
great video
Wow. Mark Bell is just being an idiot making fun of that tall guy. Thank god Silent Mike came for the rescue at 20:30 and provided some useful tips.
silent mikes t-shirt, WIN!
Brilliant, thank you.
Concerning the protection I thought that Andrey said that he would try to avoid a belt or any other accessoires. So I follow this rule since then trying not to use a belt up to 70-80% of my max to strengthen the core more. Does that make sense?
70-80% sounds a little too light to switch to using a belt imo.
Great video! thank you
Awesome video.
sup baby
Smokey really showed that massive 135 whats up
i love alan
Excellent video. I love this channel, so much useful information and great characters. Oh and Mark, my old lady says you look alot cuter with weight on you than a few years ago. I agree, nohomo tho. only on days that end with y.
