ive torn both hamstrings doing these.... i do agree my back/traps/shoulder girdle never looked thicker than when id deadlift heavy everyweek
Well we are not talking doing singles and double here, which is clearly the culprit to your problems, we are talking modest sets of ten reps.
Oh, o I mean dlng for reps screws me up. Those singles didn't mess me up at all. It's getting the bar past the knees multiple times when fatigued that gets meI like putting the bar on two reebok steps then doing slow sumo deads for ten to fifteen reps, sumos you can lower around the knees slowly without issue imo, and cutting out four to six inches keeps my back feeling good and I can lift my 5 rm for ten plus reps which means more time under tension with a big weight
How old we're you?
25 1st time and 32 last time,,,,, im not doing full deadlifts anymore, i might play around with rack pulls from under the knee or use the hammer split squat/shrug machine
as a chiro,,,,, whats your take on why this would happen, i dont even feel tight in the hamstrings when i perform them?
Weak ass cheeks, learn to pucker up.
keep your bum tricks to your self mr
I have my solution for not hurting my hams, because I am vulnerable and it goes like this;Instead of stand up right at the top position fully erected, I stand up and lean backward with my knew very slightly bent, so not locked out and my body is leaning back comfortably.Hard to explain unless you see how I do this, I will post a deadlift video in like 3 weeks and this takes the ham completely out of the equation.
always tore mine mid way into the lift,,,, my pall just tore his running at his kids sports day, 280 pounder trying to show off
Gave him the biggest back ever
