I wish there were 10 of you so you could take on more clients. One of the most informative UA-cam channels out there. I’m a fan of your insta stories as well. Thank you for the content you provide.
invaluable information!! some people pull the slack out at the final stage when you squeeze the chest up. I have tried that before.I have also tried chest up and slack out first and then set my hips. i found the latter one less stressful on my upper back and ithe slack seems to be pulled out more easily. like the way you do it! btw very explosive lfit!!!!! great video!
Super helpful! For toe positioning I've heard if you stand straight with your feet at hip width and flex your glutes as hard as you can and let your feet turn out naturally with it then wherever your toes end up is the optimal foot position for you. Is that true at all? It sounded weird but works perfectly for me.
This is old but hopefully you see this. I recently got the glute activation down on the deadlift and i think before I've been focusing too much on the lumbar extension, because i could never feely glutes in a lift. Now i feel my glutes and my lumbar is less extended but it feels slightly flexed. However, overall the lift feels much tighter and explosive and more stable. Would a slight lumbar flex in this be detrimental even if the lift feels solid and controlled?
Brendan, I absolutely love your channel! You have so much knowledge, it's incredible.. Which books would you recommend for learning more about lifting in general and programming? Thank you so much!
You do a great Job going into the Detail of pulling the slack Out. Together with correct bracing i think its the most important Part of deadlifting, yet often its not really mentioned in Tutorials. Also please Help me with this: i cant brace at the top, because my Hook grip Takes to long to Set Up. At which Point exactly would you advise me to breathe and brace?
This may not help if you've got a big belly. I personally do a 70% ish brace at the top and once Im done with my setup I take in the last 15-25% at the bottom. The reason I don't got for a full "100%" brace is because packing in that last bit of belly breath often does more hard than good in my case b/c it takes too much of my attention from other cues. If you take in your breath and feel as though you're about to pass out within seconds you may be focusing a tad too much on your air intake and not enough on the abdominal/oblique contraction around that breath. You'll know your brace is tight when your abs and obliques are burning after a heavy deadlift session. Lastly, as you deadlift more your setup should become faster. /watch?v=0AHLcqs5v7c helped me a lot.
Brandan: could you please do another video about keeping the knees forward in the deadlift? There are not many videos out there about this information. Not sure if there are any out there to be honest. Loads of people could really benefit from this information. Thanks
I think I have a problem with tensioning in the deadlift. The first rep of my working sets are always a grinder because i haven’t created tension well.
Hey man I love your content so far and I would like to know if you did individual athlete coaching? I’ve hit a bit of a nasty plateau and have decided to take the plunge with coaching instead of just screwing around with some cookie cutter programs. Would be great if you could respond back with details. Thanks
The biggest problem I have is when I focus on wedging my hips under the bar, it goes up easier but my butt starts tucking under and I feel a lot of pressure around my SI joint.
I went in today and tried to focus on both, brining my hips in and locking down my lats. I was weaker than last week, when I was bringing in my hips and pulling with a loose back, but it did feel safer in my lower back. Idk, I guess I'll keep tinkering with it
My back stays flat I feel tension on glutes and hamstring I m pushing with quads and I never felt back pain or strange soreness even with beltless deadlift.BUT... my bar path is not straight line.Is like the bar travel back t me in a j path;;;Can this be bad;Is there generally a way t track problems by the way bar travel of the floor?
A very in-depth well explained vid (much appreciated) I particularly like the way you compartmentalized (broke down) from approach to finished lift. This was very informative as I’m just starting to incorporate deadlifts (I’ve rarely done them and I’ve been lifting 15+yrs) into my program. I like your approach as you really go deep with your explanations. I can tell it’s not bro science or bro gym lore. Makes me appreciate your vidz more; very inspirational. Keep up the good work.
It’s not hard if you’ve been doing it awhile. 315 is pretty minimum when you pull the slack out because even 225 will move off the ground just because you’re so locked and tight
Akle flexion ? One thing you didn't seem too address was what i consider a large number of lifter's issue. Lack of ankle flexion. Which obviously leads to poor knee placement and poor lo back alignment. Thoughts from anyone ??
you need more exposure dude. Excellent content.
Man deserves a Phd in being jacked af
By far one of the most well-articulated, thorough demonstrations/explanations of deadlift technique and mechanics on the Tube.
Everyone who has some nagging deadlift issues need to watch this. Quality work 👌
Best example of pulling the slack out ever
First video Ive ever watched that left me understanding the concept.
The wealth of information on your channel about SBD is just unbelievable !!
one of the most underrated you tuber .. Other than some real serious powerlifters no body is really bothered to watch it .
I come back to this video several times a year to remind myself of these cues
The best deadlift tutorial. Thank you. I'm 3 weeks out from my powerlifting meet wish me luck :)
the bar slack tip was great. a lot of people just say "bar slack" but don't explain it for beginners. now I know. lots of great tips

Jason Blaha claims that deadlifts are the easiest lift to learn, lol. I’m loving this content, thank you!
An absolute wealth of information, and superbly delivered. Unbelievable strength too!
Liked and subscribed mate 👍
Great vid bro. You’re gonna have about 500k followers real soon.
Darn good tips! There's a bunch of stuff here for everyone who's seriously trying to tighten-up their form for sure.
Seen a lot of deadlift videos, this is by far the best one along with your bracing video. Goes through all the cues with great explanation
Great video!!!
Love your content!! Thank you so much for sharing all of your knowledge! You give so much detail on the technique, you’re the best!
Best video on deadlifting that I've seen yet
My thoughts exactly..... He has excellent content and is very knowledgeable on strength building
Wow, I really like this man he's full of good information.

Thank you very much brother! this was the best detailed deadlift video ive seen so far! a lot of key details!
This guy doesn't get enough attention , his tips are much more technical

Very informative video! What brand of shin guards do you recommend for women?
the best video for pulling the slack out of the bar. thanks!!
I think I have a problem with tensioning in the deadlift. The first rep of my working sets are always a grinder because i haven’t created tension well.
Howard same. If I can pull it for 1, I can pull for 3.
Same here!
Same. After the first one, I can punch it. Problem is, Max pulls suck.
@@jdlangley6864 not a rpe 10 then..
I love Brendan's Content - Genuinely the best Powerlifting channel on youtube.
He gives out alot of information. Very good indeed.

How can you tell how retroverted your hips are to determine optimal toe flare??
I'm 6'5" and prime mover is back. Except if i pull from blocks I think. How tall are you?
Such a valuable video. I'll soon reach my 5 Plate goal.
Man, i'm in school right now, but I'm still watching.
Very solid material! thank you so much!!
Great as always man
Are those knees from deadlifting?
The biggest problem I have is when I focus on wedging my hips under the bar, it goes up easier but my butt starts tucking under and I feel a lot of pressure around my SI joint.
I went in today and tried to focus on both, brining my hips in and locking down my lats. I was weaker than last week, when I was bringing in my hips and pulling with a loose back, but it did feel safer in my lower back. Idk, I guess I'll keep tinkering with it
Same i feel my back about to pop when i wedge with heavy weights
Very very good video. Thanks Brendan!
My back stays flat I feel tension on glutes and hamstring I m pushing with quads and I never felt back pain or strange soreness even with beltless deadlift.BUT... my bar path is not straight line.Is like the bar travel back t me in a j path;;;Can this be bad;Is there generally a way t track problems by the way bar travel of the floor?
So then would toe flare be the same (position) for both squatting and deadlifting? I'd never considered it for deadlifting.
this is some gold info. So much knowledge in just one video, good stuff Brendan.
everything you say shits me!
no wait.
i mean everything you say makes sense!! great video.
subscribed!!
My hips shoot when I try to drive with quads then when I am passed need my back is in a less than advantageous position.
SO MUCH GOOD INFORMATION DAMN!
whats the name of your shin guards?
Great conntent Brendan as always :)) thanks
Great video as always.
Excellent content. Thank you

315 warm up, dear lord 😂

@@serious409 dude maybe he's only starting off.
@@ryy4659 I'm only starting and I deadlift 17,5 lbs on each side + the weight of the olympic bar lmao
@@serious409he’s a beginner chill out
Thanks for the vids!!
I deadlift with a stiff bar and whenever i try the wedge i feel like the bar is compressing my lower back when the weights are heavy enough
NICE TIPS !!

Johnson Rocson you don't need as much ankle flexion in a conventional Deadlifts because your shins are supposed to be upright.
These are the tips I want not "feet shoulder width apart" or whatever every other deadlift videos says
10/10 vid as always.
Wth this video is amazing
Great!
I love ur videos ❤
In the thumbnail you look like sal if he was fit (from impractical jokers)
Lmao, he does
goat
💯🔥
I have a really bad deadlift leverage and the bar fall right above my balls.
I just get the bar hitting my knee capsules on way down
Too much talking. Little pissing and more shaking.
Sorry.
But the explanation is way more complicated than it should be.
