I’m glad someone made a vid about this bc all I do is touch and go deadlifts because I feel like it keeps the most tension on my body and there’s less risk involved compared to resetting everytime
Thank you!! Just got my form perfect, been spreading my legs too far and feeling a lot of tension (the pulling kind, not the bad kind) from the opposite hip. That’s over with now and targeting the correct areas. Thank you!
Took me long enough to be proficient with full resets - basically had to relearn how to deadlift all over again! I'll leave the touch and go to the college kids, but I will adopt the slow eccentric motions for submaximal deadlift days Thank you!
I do touch and goes too but I use padding on the platform to makesure that the bounce is minimal and I also control the eccentric portion of the lift. I have seen great strength gains still! Anyway that's my 2 cents. Great video btw!
The banging on Floor, if you observe you can see the Vibration shock wave trough person ,that does not work well, and they are not seen again for week or so
Thank you for specifying the difference between the bounce and a controlled touch. It's almost never clarified and a lot of the ire towards touch and go is about the bounce, and not the slower variation.
For me doing a full reset on more than 5 reps was really exhausting, so I decided to go for the light touch & go. I am a hobby bodybuilder so that's probably fine.
Essentially you are doing a modified Romanian Deadlift by keeping tension the entire time. Hybrid Romanian deadlift? Deficit Romanian deadlift? I dunno what you'd call it. The main factor of a standard deadlift that makes it a deadlift is you are lifting without the eccentric loading on the muscles prior to the concentric lift, hence the name, DEAD lift. I always wondered what the differences is growth, strength, RPE, activation, and all those measurable statistics would be if other lifts were "dead" and cut out the eccentric portion. Start bench press from your chest every lift, load up squats from the bottom. Probably mainly some CNS gains on muscle activation if anything.
Just learning deadlifts now. I do almost full reset at bottom to ensure my technique is proper. Afraid to hurt my back if im too loose w the movements. But its annoying to reset. I assume it'll get easier as the technique turns into muscle memory?
I've tried both and the muscle activation I get from a light but noisy touch and go is better IMO. The reset method feels like it's putting unnecessary strain on ligaments in the lower back, and increasing likelihood for a hernia for every single rep only to gain that 5cms in the liftoff which to me is not worth the trade off. A light touch and go eliminates the most harmful part of the deadlift. Let's not also forget that most reset guys will completely drop the weight as soon as the bar drops below the knees and lose out on a controlled eccentric motion with a light tap before explosion again.
Dude, your form is impeccable.
Thanks!
this man looks like a real Viking, look at his forearms and calves
The highest compliment someone can receive!
@@thestrengthhouse5782 for sure i watched your old videos and you got bigger
@@thestrengthhouse5782 But is he over 6 foot?
@@DrivenToConquer Not even close.

Dude this video is amazing, thank you so much! I just learned so much in 3 minutes with no filler. Appreciate you bro!
Bro the way you show how to do proper deadlifts is amazing. Hope you can continue to give amazing advice
Ive always been a light touch and go because i was taught that way. It keeps tension on the full body throughout the set.

You're welcome! Hope it helps.

Thanks for watching!
Aye, he has some Scandanavian in his blood. Much respect brother.
LOL.
Didn’t even have to catch his breath at all that was pretty dope
Yup. Noticed that.
Amazing bro. Exact info I was hoping to find. Thank you.
Happy to help! Thanks for watching Frank.

Not much good can come from bouncing your deadlifts.

You just gained a subscriber. Good advice

I do light touch because 11:30pm and highest room in apartment building lol
Do you lift 135 pounds in your apartment ?
thank you for sharing this.
Thanks my brother
thank you! this answered the exact questions I had
I never learned how to put down the deadlift properly so I end up basically doing a RDL down, which led to me almost hyperextending my knee,
Glad this helped!
This channel is so great! Thanks man
Thank you! You answered my exact question with this video.

I appreciate this video soooooo much. Thank you.

Very helpful, thanks!
You're welcome, thanks for watching!
The reset form looks more interesting to develop body awareness and techniques, the touch and go looks good to test your stamina and strength
Thx man
You got it! Thanks for watching.
Yes bro! Very helpful! Thank you!
I'll be there for a second or so sometimes.
Bro the problem with touch and go is how should we breath when we go down and create that tension
If the diameter of the weights is way smaller, do i still have to try to touch the ground? thanks
Thank you
You go it!
Thanks

Love a man who doesnt slam his weights. Control is where its at 🙌

Just your personal opinion
Hurt my back touch and go
I'm 25 and never thought about this. You just don't know what you don't know
