Deadlift is going down the drain (srs)

Every other lift has increased over the past 5 months, except for my deadlift which I think has actually decreased. A weight that I could do for a set of 5 back then wouldn't even budge off of the floor today.

Half the time I deadlift, as soon as I bend down and straighten out my back, stomach acid wants to shoot up my throat (srs). I think this is holding me back cause sub-consciously I know if I brace my abs hard it'll cause me to throw up in my mouth.

Some days its not a problem and I can deadlift OK. The variation in strength when this happens and doesn't happen is large.

Fuk this chit srs

Reps if anyone else has had this problem and has a solution
Best lifts:
Bench press: 315x5
Squat: 465x1
Strict press: 205x5
Deadlift: 405x13 (conv tap'n'go with straps)

That isn't normal, see a doctor. That is GERD but if it gets triggered so easily everytime you strain, your eso****eal sphincter is loose , no homo. Warrants medical investigation.

What does your gym week look like?

Could also be your belt is too tight, or what you are eating / drinking preworkout

This x 100. True story OP, get this checked out. And stop shoving large things down your throat, gotta let that eso****eal sphincter tighten back up.

Dont listen to these guys. Wtf does a doctor know? Hes just going to tell you to stop lifting, or do 7000 tests to tell you something you dont want to hear. Just power through it.

lol

At the least he can get acid inhibitors prescribed, which will help a lot by themselves. He might also need an endoscopy to rule out other stuff.

Idk man, when I search the symptoms for GERD, I don't have any of them. I never use antacid medicine or ever have heartburn

This only happens during deadlifts when I wear a belt. Squats or RDLs or anything never triggers it. Even deficit deadlifts don't trigger it for some reason

3 or 4 days per week, full body workouts, 4 exercises, 2-3 sets each that are pretty much all out. Common exercises: squats, bench, press, deadlift, rows, chins, curls, RDLs

I have started to wear my belt a notch looser than on squats and I think it kinda helps. The belt feels pretty much completely loose when standing up but when bent over it has a little tightness

I also use straps on top sets so I have to stay bent over a little longer than otherwise

Bench press: 315x5
Squat: 465x1
Strict press: 205x5
Deadlift: 405x13 (conv tap'n'go with straps)

Yeah...that's been my experience going to a doctor for literally anything sports/injury related. They always say the same chit "rest and ice it"

Deadlift has always been my worst lift. I'm built to squat/bench not to dead

In the past I've usually done squats first then DL afterwards but recently I flipped and do DLs first if they're in the workout. Is it possible to be stronger on DLs if you've squatted first? Makes no sense but its one difference

don't eat a big meal at least a few hours before you deadlift, just eat something small before you go to the gym.

for me personally, it's a combo of fats/carbs in a large amount that gets my stomach churning during deadlifts. For example pizza is absolutely a no go for me before deadlifts.

lol I know exactly what you're talking about OP and it's really nothing. It happens to me when I deadlift from time to time if I'm going heavy and drank a bunch of water before.

I used to feel like that when I was eating a lot of fried foods but I cut back on the fried foods and that feeling stopped. Check your diet OP.

Hmm I do actually drink a lot of water before/during lifting now that I think about it, next time I’ll lay off the water and see if it still happens. On spread but will try to remember to rep

sure, so do low volume, add 5lbs, reduce volume further, don't pay attention technique - basically lift an idiot.

You're better off making a fist and inserting it as high up your angus as you can JFL @ incels



Edit: the only people who progress 5lbs session to session are complete beginners, which seems to be you JFL. It makes sense now

Update:

99 percent sure this is it.

Did 3 sets of RDLs today near the end of my workout. I do a regular DL to get the weight off of the floor to start the set. The first working set was just fine. I got really thirsty after the set and drank some water. Then when starting the second set I wanted to puke as soon as I grabbed the bar

BRB researching how to be less thirsty

Take constant small sips instead of drinking a bunch at once (srs)

Also colder water will quench thirst better

Do you drink coffee before your deadlift workouts.

I don’t get this with deadlifts but I have in the past with pendlay rows.

I try to do both. I got a cup of ice water. Maybe I should sip on it on previous exercises before I actually feel thirsty so I dont feel like I need to drink a swimming pool

Yes. Either coffee or an energy drink. Think it’s the caffeine?
