You don't have to thrust your hips so forward. You're getting a deadlift video filmed, not a porn act. =P How much was that?

LOL! I always imagine humping the bar so that I'll get full extension la but I guess I'm overdoing it. Overall no problems la?

too much testosterone there my pren..

Can never have too much test bro It's 90kg btw

mmm that does not look anything like 90kgs.... just saying

i think there are 2x 10kgs and 1x 15 kgs on each side
... + bar = 80 kgs?...

It's cool guys. C'mon.... I can't even tell how much is that from the video. It's ok to doubt but not to the point of giving him the impression his effort is being belittled.

sorry if i gave that impression but i really wasnt, just saying ive never seen 90kgs look like that or maybe its a "video illusion".
oh btw, that flooring looks like it might get damaged, from the constant pounding of 90kgs

hey darkie... long time no see!
well.. i was just hazarding a guess. anything near 90kg x 8 would be pretty decent in my books !!

Nah it's no worries. I know the 2 of you aren't jackasses, no harm done just that some newbies might take it the wrong way and get discouraged. Lol... heck I was a bit worried he might take my porn comment a bit too harshly. =P

Latest pics. Been desperately trying to bring up pretty much my entire upper body. Though, I've got some pretty obvious symmetry issues, ie right arm > left arm, left chest > right chest, right delt > left delt.



Anyone has suggestions for getting things to even out?

Seriously I'm also having the same problem..

I always dreamed to have v-taper body. I'm focus to strength training (although I'm not that strong... lol)

I thought to post my back as I had significant development in that area due to my weighted chin up. The snake running at my back there is definitely from deadlift... . BTW, I'm a small guy 166cm 52kg~ lets call this the anatomy of soon-to-be-one-arm-chinup-member. Yeah... keep on dreaming, someday it WILL happen!

Would you guys please check my form for me ? Thanks.

im doing just 70kg DL, people already bising2 in my gym coz not wearing the belt.. but im seeing many people here doing more than that, still without belt.. how much all of u considered it safe before u are wearing belt?

Hello guys, the proper way of deadlifting is to leave the weight on the floor after each rep then lift it back or hanging on the air ? I went thru some articles and stuffs in internet, it was supposed to be done in former way. How about all of u ?

Thanks in advance.

I started wearing a belt when deadlifting above 315lbs. Ask your gym members to stfu. You don't need a belt for EVERY lift.

i tried both method...i prefer to put it back on the ground, a quick adjust on my grip then go again...

nice, 215 lbs...i'm only doing 70kg excludin the straight bar weight...nice work

The trainer in TF last time put on horrible story when i deadlift, saying that there was one guy snap his back and the medic has to come in and carry him out. Thx to his concern and make me scare.

thats right.. their story about popping sound after doing DL already make me thinking twice to lift..
but i just lift without belt until recently i get my belt..
for safety reason maybe, but more to make mind at ease after all these story..
