squats = under the bar
bench = UNDEr the bar
Deads = just pulling shit off the floor
when youre under the bar it takes alot more, plus you have to keep it in your routine to be able to squat or bench alot and it shows usually, you have a big chest or shapely legs - but a heavy dead? i see rednecks in Hickory pull 4 plates and just slam it back on the ground as hard as they can -- with bench or squat you cant just totally disreguard the eccentric movement or you pay
why deads are halfass and not admired but most - bench/squats = white collar
deads= blue collar/';redneck lift (but i do them alot now and like them)
