talking to a PT between sets of deadlifts. gym was almost closing so the newbie pt's are all cleaning up the weights. i had 3 plates on the bar. PT i was talking to commented not many people in the gym does deadlifts regularly and with that many plates.
this newbie pt comments sarcastically that theres no point you lift heavy if you dont keep the weights back. now, i ALWAYS keep my weights back but i was sooo tempted to leave it there after my final set. decided to not be a d*** and kept them anyways. scrawny PT guy would probably have a good workout keeping back the weights.

Ask his name and report it to the manager for his rude manners. Noob PT nowadays are annoying and they dont deserve those title with that kind of attitude. Call them gym roaches better.

Call them gym roaches better. Not worth my time, tbh. All I wanna do in the gym is get in my workout and get out. I've seen the way he trains his clients, not professional at all. Hmm come to think of it he might not even be a registered trainer yet, didn't see his pic in the pt board and he doesn't have the trainer uniform

Imo deadlifting gave me more strength gains rather than anything else. Helps to put poundages in your other lifts. At least that's what I noticed when I started deadlifts heh. Grip has increased some too.

Then you have to correct your form even more. It's not just your legs, your whole back should be fried. That is why I leave my deads at the End of the w/o. Takes whatever that's left out.

your arms are hooks to the bar, your arms are attached to your traps,which means in the movement, the load is on your traps. If your traps dont get fried, basically, at the top of the movement, you are hanging on with your arms, not your traps.
