100% agree deadlifts squats bench press no matter what they will give a great physique compound are kings but you should still do accessory n islotaion for sure tho
I wonder what you mean when you say you'd make more progress by doing the deadlift rather than not. While the Deadlift builds a lot of muscle, it obviously offers a lot of fatigue too. So for someone who wants to optimize their hypertrophy training, something like a SLDL/RDL is a much better choice and basically works the same muscles. That being said it's not a bad exercise at all, anyone can incorporate it in their routine, ESPECIALLY those who train for strength or have a limited training time.
he said if you go back to training for strength and you had been doing deadlifts one a week instead of not at all your strength for the deadlift will have progressed more . He worded it kinda weird but that's what he meant.
If I had to choose only one lift to do for all purposes: strength, size, fat loss, practical benefits...it would be deadlifts. It trains legs, glutes, lower back, upper back, traps, lats, forearms, bicep stability, rear delts, even neck. I would never remove deadlifts from my routine unless I'm in a de load or injury rehabilitation program.
Depends on how you do them...deadlifts for most people are not beneficial considering how poorly they are usually performed. Most people put on too much weight and don't know how to do them...if you're going to do deadlifts, use a hex bar or start the lift at the knees. There is NO WAY to do competition style deadlifts without increasing risks of injuries to the umpteenth degree. Ask any established powerlifter or strongman where their worst injuries came from...
Hi need routine help. can you make a lifting routine for me and post it here so I can write it down. I need it because I want to get stronger for semi-pro football im 38 years old trying out in spring for 11 on 11 tackle football. Im 6'0 190lbs. I only have access to a flat bench, incline bench, leg press, hack squat machine and military press station and dumbbells and 2 benches, also a rope pull down triceps machine and lat pull down. Can you give me an 5 day lifting routine with sets and reps and what days to do certain excercises ? I need help getting bigger and stronger and I want big biceps also.
Hey Jizztin, I've recently started working out and have been seeing good strength gains in squat bench and deadlift but i've started to feel like my first set is so much easier than my last, Im currently resting up to 5 mins between sets and dont really want to lower the weight to compensate for my last set. Any advice on recovery between sets?
rest longer AND better. when you rest, don't move a lot, maybe sit if you feel like it, and don't time your rests. start your next set when you feel like you can do it with the same intensity. and also, your last set will ALWAYS feel harder than your first set. unless it feels a shit ton harder, don't worry about it
I think that's pretty normal, but depends what you mean by much easier. I think if you're able to hit the same reps in every single set, you're compromising on reps somewhere (usually on your earlier sets). Aim for an RIR of 2 or 3 in each of your sets. For example, 3 sets of deadlifts at RIR 2 in the 5-10 rep range. First set - 8 reps; second set - 6 reps; third set - 5 reps; but in each set, you had 2 RIR. The other thing is this could be a multitude of factors. Maybe you're not adequately energized for you workout or perhaps you need to rest slightly longer between sets. You could supplement gatorade as an intraworkout drink. I usually do that as my workouts tend to be 1.5-2 hours in length.
Hey Justin, I wanted to ask you what approach on time management you use. How do you manage to study CS and do powerbuilding professionally at the same time?
how do you make deadlifts fit into push pull legs? how do you do ppl while squatting benching and deadlifting each twice a week? i havent put deadlifts in yet because i want to squat twice a week. been training for 6 months now
That might be a lot of volume for you, but really you just have to experiment with your training. You might have periodize your lifts. If you're wanting to squat twice a week, then perhaps adding deadlifts in there isn't ideal. When I used to run a brosplit, I used to squat Monday and Friday and deadlifted on Wednesday, which was my back day. The other thing is why do you want to deadlift? It might not even be necessary for your training goals to deadlift, but if you do want to for whatever reason, you could deadlift on your leg days too, just after your squats. Or if getting a bigger deadlift is a goal, alternate on each leg day. So squats first, deadlifts second on the 1st leg day and then deadlifts first, squats second on the 2nd leg day. Or you could deadlift one leg day and squat on the other. There's lots of options, you just need to tailor it to your prgoram and individual needs. There's a lot of correct ways to program your training, you want to make sure the deadlifting doesn't add too much fatigue that the rest of your lifts and training suffers.
Hey Jusmusucular, can you be too lean for powerlifting? Like if you maintain from 15% bodyfat to 11-9% bodyfat would that effect your lifts badly and it is because i want to speciffict weight class but not slow down gaizzzz.
hey justin so i hurt my back a couple weeks ago and really wanna get back into working out, but i’m scared that it’ll hurt my back again once i start any tips on what i should do?
In terms of cardio for weight loss, I'd say you'd be better off just weight training. But ultimately, your diet is the most important part for weight loss. So that begs the question, what do you find the hardest part about sticking to your diet is?
I agree with the reply, there's no need to do tons of cardio for fat loss. About the diet part though, the best advice is always to find low calorie foods that are high in volume and are gonna fill you up. A good way to do it is to swap out regular food for their 'leaner' counterparts(regular beef with low fat, same goes for milk and basically anything you can think of) , remove cooking oils from your diet and also add vegetables because a lot of them consist of very little calories and are filling.
Hey Justin, what do you do for hip and knee mobility/pain. It just seems as if your joints have been replaced with titanium and constantly lubricated with WD-40.
Hey Jazztine. I’ve recently startet using a weight lifting belt. But whenever i do squats, i feel a very painful pinching in my lower abdominal region, right over my hips. Don’t know if its the fat getting pinched, cause i have seen people with higher fat percentage use a lifting belt, without issue. Do you have any idea what could be the reason?
What about back extensions? I sometimes superset them with single-legged back extensions to work the QL. But even when I do them both legged, I use lots of weights. For example, my max is like 30kg dumbbells each hand. So should I switch back to the deadlift, or do you think going back and forth with them is also great?
I haven’t really used a training programme, before I used to do upper body, then lower body, then I did full body but now I’m wondering if I do a upper body, lower body split
@@Light-jr6yf if you look up push pull legs you can find a bunch of programs. If your unsure of what program would be good for you, you can watch youtube vidoes of fitness influencers showing their full ppl workout split and they usually show form for the exercises. The program doesnt need to be perfect just pick one that you think you will like and over time you can modify or eventually make your own. The most important thing is just that you have a set program and your tracking your progress with that program while doing progressive overload.
Hey Justiiinne, I've recently noticed that I've got a gagolian cyst on my right hand under my palm. All I can come to the conclusion is that it may be due to my bad form doing bench presses. Should I get a wrist wrap and will that help? Has thus happened to you or anyone else you know? I'm really curious as I've no other idea to how I got it. It's a bit of a problem right now
Hey Justy, I’ve been feeling pain in my forearms, specifically my carpal tunnels, when doing any form of rows. Any thoughts on this? Is my form that issue? Thanks!
Going from 1 pushup to 2 pushup is hytroperhy.. quarter rep to half rep is hytroperhy.. anything asthetic I would consider conditioning. Except looking jacked
Deadlifts are op, i would do them everyday if i could
Go watch Eric bugenhagen, deadlifts everyday
@@evanmiller9072 been watching him since 2yrs or more
@@Rajdweep - Y’all ever see the guy who squats every day?
@@yodamaster757 used to watch, tried to do, my joints couldn't take it lel
deadlifts are fun and can definitely bring more intensity to your back days as well as allow you to look forward to deadlift days and training
I love watching you and Matt Vesa
Deadlifts are optional but hip hinging is mandatory.
100% agree deadlifts squats bench press no matter what they will give a great physique compound are kings but you should still do accessory n islotaion for sure tho
I am failing 160kg deadlift for about 7 months now and i still don't know the reason why
Nice squats bro

incredible squats bro, i recently got my max to 167.5kg Still a long way to go until i hit 4 plates
You'll get it. I hit 4 plates about 1 month ago. But I started with a 1rm of less than 135. You'll get it brah
@@MrJbedo congrats man! how long have you been squatting?
You’ll get it brotha!

You can start to increase the rest time the later a set is you might only need 3 or 4 minutes after your first but 5 or even 6 min before your last
I think that’s a work capacity problem, so maybe incorporating some cardio would make ur rest times shorter and let u recover faster

Damn lots of helpful stuff thanks a bunch gunna take this all into consideration next workout seems I have a lot to learn
I have the exact same question
Hey Justina, what’s your fav body part to train and why and how often do you train it?

how do you make deadlifts fit into push pull legs? how do you do ppl while squatting benching and deadlifting each twice a week? i havent put deadlifts in yet because i want to squat twice a week. been training for 6 months now
i put conventional deadlifts in my pull days, and RDL's in leg day. it works for me, but maybe not for you. just try lol
For me I put sumo deadlift in my leg day and alternate with squats every week
