Deadlift question
When I do deads my legs are generally kept straight - and I feel it in both hams and lower back. Is this normal? I always thought that SLDL was more for hams and bent leg for back. :confused:

Re: Deadlift question
Deads are a compound move mate, you are gonna feel them everywhere. I would be more worried if you didn't feel them in your lower back and hams

Straight legs are gonna hit your hams MORE, but bent they will still be used in the movement.

Re: Deadlift question
Cheers MT, I like doing SLDL so it's good to know that it's a good all-round exercise. TBH that's what I thought but just wanted to make sure.

Re: Deadlift question
Doing DL off the floor with straight legs is not the best idea TBH.

Why can you not do them normally?

Have you tried a Sumo stance?

Re: Deadlift question
Nytol -
I don't pick the bar up off the floor with straight legs, nor do I let the bar touch the floor with straight legs. Not tried them "normally" - not that I can remember, anyway . And not tried the sumo stance.

Re: Deadlift question
I see, as long as you keep and arch in your lower back then they are fine, but will target the hams and glutes more than conventional DL if done correctly.

Re: Deadlift question
I've had problems with my lower back in the past (trampolining accident) so when doing deads I'm extra careful. TBH because I've really only ever done SLDL I'm not even sure what "normal" DL stance is! LOL

Re: Deadlift question
Obviously this is at the extreme end of the lifting spectrum, but his set up is good, (the dance is not needed though)

Re: Deadlift question
Sounds like your doing it fine mate whenever i go max on deadlifts my legs always lock out way early and i end up dragging it up all back.....perhaps not the best way but i can pull a fair bit and my back has always been my best body part.

Re: Deadlift question
Oh I think the dance makes all the difference!
Looking at it, I think that I have just let my legs become straighter over time. God I need help...
