nope. not at all. the deadlift is incredibley technical, as i am sure you are aware. it requires huge concentration and near perfect form. "thats not all that different form every other exercise you say?" and you'd be right. but:

in my opinion, the deadlift is very hit/miss. you either have excelent form, or you have poor form. and if you are doing 3x8 do you honestly think your form is as good on the final few reps of the 24+ you will be doing, as it was on the first few? no, me either.

one question: how far in front of the bar are your shoulders at the start of the pull?
(i would appreciate it if no-one else would answer that question except benj. thanks.)
