question on deadlifts - romanian to be exact, am I risking my back in any way when I deload the weight to the floor but my hamstrings are not strong enough to allow me to deload steadily?

The weights dont just drop and fall right to the floor but there is some stress involved acting on my body as I deload, can feel due to weaker hamstrings. I'm wondering is this okay for my posture..?

Its the eccentric motion I'm worried about.. cuz bench press,squats I usually do with slower eccentrics (about 2-3 secs to descend) but I can't really do that with deads..

Why are you deloading romanian deadlifts on the floor? The only time the bar should be on the floor is at the end of the set.

oooh I get where ur coming from regarding slow eccentrics.. I'll do that, work on getting my deadlift to that weight! so its ok even if I cant really deload steadily in a slow eccentric manner? btw deep squats are squats where you go beyond parallel?

PB thanks for taking time to explain, learnt a lot, didn noe hams are fast twitch that grow more that way..  thats an insane increase in your clean and jerks btw biggrin.gif

JonYeap : ahhahah almost man almost.. but it's these reads that really teach new things everyday..

To put it in simple words, when you're a beginner, just focus on GETTING F!@#ing STRONGER, and everything else will take care of itself =)

Just tell that to yourself, GET STRONG GET STRONG GET STRONG. But of course, technique comes before form.

Deep squats are also known as ATG, A$$ to Grass Squat, basically, you squat AS DEEP AS YOU CAN, leaving a stain on the floor if you're flexible enough.

yeah I figured to build a bigger frame I had to get stronger at my compound lifts so there would actually be more flesh on me, later only thinking of isolations.

lololol ATG. isit something like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXmyep_6sGs&feature=related

except perhaps lower? as low as you can go without letting ur butt sag and curl downwards? lolol dono how to explain but the butt has a tendency to do that when we go too low. most of the time I go as deep as I can, but recently if I continue to do that, there's a hugeee tendency for me to stall. nevertheless in my 5x5 ive been doing at least 3-4 reps ATG in every set, I always feel I don't go low enough lolol

Just so we're clear, if you stall at 40kg ATG, then do 45kg but only to parallel the next week, you are STILL STALLING, that is not progress.

This video is better:

If you're wondering, the big guy is Pierre Roy, a legendary coach in Weightlifting. He's counting out the tempo in French.
