    It's that time again! Hope you guys enjoy Part 2 of the deadlift mini-series. In case you missed the sumo tutorial from last week here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/XsrD5y8EIKU/v-deo.html
    I also realize that there is a good deal of overlap between these two deadlift tutorials. I wanted to make each of them stand-alone videos so that there is no question as to how both of these variations are to be performed from start to finish and to save me from having to clarify every difference in a single video (which would end up being too long and probably more confusing). So anyway, I'll be back next week with 4 of the biggest deadlift errors and then we're moving onto the dip from there! Let's keep it going and hit like if you're enjoying the series so far. Peace!

      Jeff Nippard,
      What exercises would you consider to be the opposite of doing a deadlift or a squat where you pull your body together instead of exploding your body out? I haven’t really seen a full body pulling exercise without someone mentioning weighted pull ups that have an ab crunch, a weighted leg raise built into it or the exercise turning into a pushing exercise of some sort.
      Looking to develop proportional strength so I can push what I pull, but also making sure all of my muscles progress together, that way weaker muscle groups are not falling behind to keep up with the larger ones. Haven’t seen too many videos on the subject but would love to see a video on the science behind proportional strength and figuring out if different muscles are lacking or should be lifting more weight proportional to the rest of the body or at least that a certain ratio is maintained between muscle groups. Hope that makes sense.
      I’m so glad you added more color in your overlays graphics. It really helps the visuals and drive home the points you are making.
      Thanks for another video!

  • @IolcanPK
    @IolcanPK 5 років тому +239

    Your feet should NOT point straight ahead as you indicated, Jeff.
    The reason is, when we flex our glutes, they not only cause hip extension, but also a slight external rotation of the femurs. Thus, you want your toes pointing slightly outwards to accommodate for said rotation.
    This is just my opinion , in any case. Take care ;-)

    • @davecom3

    • @BigUriel
      @BigUriel 4 роки тому +24

      The gluteus maximus is a weak external rotator of the hip, and you have many other muscles in the hip to counter this torque (including the gluteus medius and minimus).
      Lots of people deadlift with their feet pointing straight ahead and there's nothing inherently wrong with it. Some people even pull with their feet pointing inwards slightly.

    Hi Jeff.
    First and foremost: Thank you for your work, and sincere approach to sharing your very informative approach to lifting. I really appreciate how in depth you describe everything. It's perfect for anyone who's completely new to, or coming back to training.
    I myself haven't been to the gym in what I believe is around 10-15 years so it's been a slow ride and quite the adjustment.
    I began lifting early november this year and at first decided to stay away from deadlifting because I used to get this sensation of what I can best describe as a static discharge, under my right scapula toward the spine. There was no pain involved, but it did make me feel uncomfortable as I tend to also get a stiff trapezius on the very same side, that sometimes extend to the lat. Now I've visited a doctor and a physiotherapist for this issue without any real explanation. I've simply accepted it as something that comes and goes.
    I've done some deadlifting for a couple weeks now and yesterday I beat an old pr, without the aforementioned feeling. Not entirely sure where my goal is, if I have one, but I'm quite happy at my current 1 max of 140kg. For reference I am 38 years old and weigh about 90kg today and my old 1 max of 130kg happened at (guesstimate) 20-25 years of ago, below 80kg. Feeling that "old man" strength.
    Again, thank you. Keep the good vibes coming. Best of luck to you.

    For the grip question, hookgrip really is superior. Double overhand allows you to keep an even tension in your lats, and the twisting of your arms to get your thumbs in the correct position allows you to pack your lats much tighter than with straps or normal double overhand and exponentially tighter than alternate grip. The bar also sits lower in your hands giving you a better start position and lower finishing (maybe like half an inch, but if we are getting into deadlift slippers and shit to minimize height it can be a big deal). Yes it hurts for the first couple weeks and yes you really need chalk to get the most out of it, but you get used to the pain and your thumbs go numb after a set or two anyway. It's a very small price to pay for a basically infinite grip, better start position, and better lat tension.

    Thank you so much for this video, Jeff! I just started deadlifting again for the first time in about four years because I had hurt myself multiple times when I used to DL (because of form). When I started again I was surprised how much stronger I was (I guess all the auxiliary lifting translated well), but I was concerned about my upper back since I have scoliosis. The guy I DL with is substantially shorter than I am (I’m 6’, he’s about 5’7”) and his back is absolutely flat throughout the lift, while I noticed my upper back tends to curve even before I begin the lift. That probably has something to do with having slightly disproportionately shorter than arms than my height. Nice to know that some curve at the top is normal and nothing to worry about. I’ll def be focusing on my hip drive when I do DLs later this week!

    When I power lifted many years ago, I mostly trained conventional Deadlift. Then one day I tried Sumo style. I found it much easier to lock out than conventional. For me that inch or two that is being saved by having your arms between you legs was the key. Once I found a sumo stance I was comfortable with I took almost 3 inches off the lift distance. Conventional was lifting 27" to full lockout. Sumo Style just over 24". The least amount of distance you have to cover the more successful you may be. Be safe all. Lift safely.

    • @j.l.5966
      @j.l.5966 5 років тому +2

      Depends on the lifter and the purpose. For guys with long legs and shorter arms pointing your toes out means knees have to point out slightly. This equates to widening your grip to accommodate the knees coming out making the lift a bit harder. The range of motion and spinal erector recruitment off the floor is increased due to a flatter back position.
      Personally I also have my toes slightly pointed out because I feel the external rotation helps me recruit more glutes during the lift and I’m not at all a tall guy.

    • @ducamorisable
      @ducamorisable 5 років тому +1

      @@j.l.5966 There are two main benefits to pointing your toes out. Firstly, it allows you to engage your glutes a lot more - which is very beneficial on the deadlift. Secondly (and this is the biggie), it allows for better possitioning on the deadlift for guys with longer legs... Like you said, the knees should always follow the toes, and when you have your toes pointing outwards, idealy your knees are going to follow. Having your knees pointing outwards is going to allow you to keep the bar closer to your center of mass. Now like you said, the drawback to this is the fact that you will have to widen your grip width. However, in my experience the drawbacks you get from widening your grip are minuscule when compared to the benefits of having your knees pointing out... This technique can be also applied to romanian deadlifts, stiff legged deadlifts, deficit deadlifts and even exercises such as the pendlay row as it again allows you to keep the bar a lot closer to your center off mass

    Tip #1 should be to load light weights first, get good form and master the technique first. So many beginners under peer pressure from friends and ego lifters just try to lift weights that are clearly too heavy for them with very poor form.

    Hey Jeff I really need a short answer for the question I am about to tell because this has left me all stressed without motivation. I really need to lose like 40 pounds for a leanish physique but I am unsure wether I can make the results permanent because fat cells only shrink but never disappear. Have you seen an obese person ever get lean and remain a little lean even on as clean as possible bulks?

    • @jacobshalvey
      @jacobshalvey 5 років тому +6

      LAGman91 dude just because fat cells only shrink doesnt mean you cant stay lean. The longer you stay at a lower bodyfat %, the more your body hunger regulating hormones(leptin/ghrelin) will adapt to this state. And thus, the more likely your physique change can be permanent.

      Yo Lagman, Jacob Shalvey is 100000000000000% right.
      There are many examples of people being able to go from fit to fat and also from fat to fit and see it maintained. For example Christian Bale, in basically every other movie goes from Dick Cheney to greek god.
      Offensive lineman in the NFL are also good examples. Many of them lose over 100 lbs after they stop playing football and look completely different and are able to maintain this leanness.

      First few sets you do 1-3 reps with heavy weight for strength, next few sets lower weight and do 10-15 reps. Strength goes first because your body needs more resources. Don't do strength sets after hypertrophy, by that time you will already deplete your energy. That's my opinion.
