what is hip drive?

edit
is the song saying "i like the way you touch yourself"

Strong fukking everything.

1. You need to puff your chest more. This allows your upper back to curve more, allowing you to use your glutes more.
2. Because you didn't do #1, your glutes jumped too early at the beginning.
3. You're not popping with your hips at the end...also because you're not using your fking glutes.

Credibility:



Notice how my butt doesn't raise too early, allowing me to pop my hips later?+5 to gryffindor

Looking like a real ******* out there

yea looks like it. i thought my first two reps were good but the third one my glute was up too early and i felt all lumbar lol

thanks reps

Take off those shoes fitsparky

Also watch this vid




barbell medicine is a good source

^^^This and

misleading thread title

315 stiff leg deadlifts x 5 is more like it. Try bracing your back and pulling the bar into your shins.

fit sparky, who is that? heheis because my glutes and hammies are lacking compared to my back? I haven't deadlifted in forever, second time back. Did what was natural, seems like pushing the chest out drains a lot of energy during the set.

Hips raising first can be a symptom of poor leg drive (=weak legs, pulling with your back). Deficit deadlifts, low box narrow stance SSB could be good accessories

Keep your ass down more, chest up. Otherwise not bad.

Do more straight leg deals to catch up gluten and hams

I swear to god most "deadlifters" in the gym look autistic as fuk

Thanks boyos! Will definitely add accessory work!

Lifting with rhinitis is hard af, today I did my deads and just walked 10 mins on the tread mill

This.This is your first rep. The first pic is before the rep starts, so it's obvious you know what it's supposed to look like:



But as soon as you initiate the rep, you go to this:



The advice given by Danny was correct, but he didn't tell you how to do it. Sometimes it's as simple as a technique fix. But sometimes, this happens because you don't have enough hamstring development and your low back takes on the workload.You should take your own advice. You're doing a lot of the same things OP is doing.

Shoulders too far over the bar. Little to no hip drive. Bent straight over with straight legs. Your chest is up a little bit more, yes.

Work your hamstrings more. Sit own into the deadlift and squat it up more so you can incorporate the hips, gluten and hamstrings into the movement.

Here's an ugly old fat guy who knows how to deadlift. Do it like that:

Pretty similar to my SLDL formCould you make that vid any fuking longer? Made me a sandwich while I waited for you to lift it

Thanks DD, great advice! Will incorporate into my routine!

Don't wanna highjack fitsparky's thread but can you review my deads here too brah

Bar rolls forward before I initiate the lift, not sure if I'm squatting down too much

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/embed/lOL2PNJwyBA[/youtube]

Not bad, keep at it.

is dedlift a cope lift? all the guys who are pulling 5 plates dont even look like they lift srs

Your technique is solid. You are probably being pulled forward just as you initiate the lift because of a relative mid-and-upper back weakness.

I'd recommend front squats and safety bar squats, but mostly front squats.

Good deadlift srs.

Mirin double over hand no straps

You can say the same thing about all lifts. There are plenty of skinny guys and fat guys who can bench, squat, and deadlift more than jacked guys.

That's life son.

Reps on r/cUsing hook grip here

Do people not know what pulling slack is ITT. Literally 4 different videos and none of you are doing something so basic yet important

4:24

How did your back feel after? I feel like the start position is good but you kinda stand up a bit before lifting, thus making the start position less useful. I also think being short makes having good deadlift technique way harder.

To be fair, my deadlift video was 315 pounds. There's no real slack to pull out at 315.

At 550+, yeah, you would see that happen with mine.

And you would with AshWar's, too.

feels pretty good right now but i was doing cable rows for back for 2 weeks. yea manlet frame sucks for dls

I understand that it's not as visible (the bar being bent and the plates still touching the floor) with lighter weights, but you can and should pull slack at any weight. If it's light enough (think 1 or 2 plates) the bar should be floating before you even start the lift.

Here's 315, I see a ton of slack being pulled here

[imghttps://i.gyazo.com/d5566a31b63a39d729c69b46f172412b.gif[/img][/QUOTE]That's also a deadlift bar, with a stiff bar there is really no slack to speak of even at 4-5 plates.

My technique is a little rusty here, first time pulling off the floor in about 2 months, and only the 4th or 5th session pulling off the floor this year. But even with 425 there is hardly any flex in the bar.

[youtube]lOL2PNJwyBA[/youtube[/QUOTE]Try setting up a little farther back from the bar. Bar at midfoot is a good starting point cue, but for us guys with longish legs (relative to height) sometimes a little tweak is required. I setup for conventional pulls with the bar pretty much directly over my toes. That allows me the space to pull myself into the bar more without shifting it. Other than that your pulls look pretty solid brah.

As for the OP, Drew already addressed your issues as well as anybody could off one video clip.

I'm not trying to be a pain in the ass by continuing the discussion but I'm just repeating what I learned from the coaches at TSA. I think when you say "pull the slack" you only think of the bar bend and nothing else whereas I mean pulling the slack out of the bar AND getting full tension. Here's a video demonstrating it with a stiff bar (not me) and what it would look like with relatively low enough weight, notice how the bar floats before he even initiates the pull
This is nice advice OP. Puffing your chest out = overextended back = ribcage not in line with pelvis = bad position to brace in.

Try taking a big breath and puffing your chest out right now while in your chair, then breathe out as much as you can. You'll notice your chest is going down and your abs contracting = good brace

Yup this. You're doing more of a stiff legged deadlift. While not necessarily a bad thing, if your intention is to do a regular deadlift, you want quad drive and hips. If your natural tendency is for your hips to shoot up, try starting with a higher hip position. You lose a lot of quad and hip power doing what you are doing.

Also I'm going to disagree with the advice of puffing your chest out. I don't think it's necessarily something you want to strive for at all and from experience it puts guys lower back in an overextended position which you don't want. Maybe it's okay advice for those with rounding issues but for the most part it's really meh advice, at best you don't want to overexaggerate it. If you find yourself having to your shoulders are probably in poor position from the start.

You want you deadlift to look like one smooth motion, rather than your hips raising up.

The best cues and advice ive been given overall is keep near vertical shins, "squeeze your armpits" as hard as you physically can, this will ensure your lats and lower back are locked in tight. Your hips should be at the same height from the beginning of the lift to the end of the lift. Keep your butt back to allow room for your hips/glutes to thrust generating more power.
