Hello Guys and Girls,
I have been Deadlifting (Conventional) for almost 8 months now and I have a few questions:
1. Which area of my muscle that Im suppose to feel sore after Deadlifting? Most of the time I will feel it on my entire back (upper, mid and lower), my glutes, Forearms (high reps) and my hamstrings. Am I suppose to feel sore on my quads as well?
2. How long do you normally rest in between each Deadlift set? is 2 minutes enough? Or should I rest longer? I realise for each Strength Exercise (1-5 reps) I would rest differently. For example: my weakest, Bench and Overhead Press, I would rest around 5 minutes (too long?). for Squat and Deadlift, 2minutes and Im good to go.
3. Which type of grip should utilise long term, overhand or alternate? Most of my Sets I will use Overhand Grip but upon reaching 300lbs and above, I will need to use alternate grip, else the my grip will fail. I have yet to use a belt or straps in any of my lifts.

QUOTE(Xander-G @ Mar 10 2016, 02:48 PM) 1) Shud be at butt and lower back. 2) Rest under 1 minute for 10 reps & below. 3) one hand in and one hand out. 1) Only these two? 2) What about for Strength? 3) Whats the benefit using alternate rather than overhand grip? |

QUOTE(-ccy- @ Mar 10 2016, 03:33 PM) 1. There's no answer for this as it depends on how you deadlift. Even for conventional, it might be different depends on your torso and femur length. But it is common if you have doms for lower back, hams and glutes. If you feel sharp pain then it is different story. 2. Bench and ohp doesn't require that much rest time compared to squat and deadlift as they recruit lesser muscle. I usually train 2-7 reps with 3-5 mins rest. Longer rest for lower rep scheme. As a general rule, rest as long as you need to ensure you can hit the reps in next set but not too long until your body cool down. 3. Are you competing? If yes, then switch to mixed grip or hook grip with chalk. If not, you can consider using straps. For grip strength: double overhand < mixed grip/hook grip. So, once you failing due to grip, try switching over to mixed or hook grip. Lifting chalk does make tons of different. 1. Oh ok. cause I have a few friends who feel sore on their quads as well. Yet to feel any sharp pain. 2. No idea man. I find my pushing movements are very weak for some reason. Cant progress as fast as my Squat and Deadlift. Need to rest more in order to perform the intended reps. Noted on the rest until ready for the next set. Will try to increase my rest time for Deadlift to see whether there is any difference or not. 3. Nope. Dont plan to complete. More like for self satisfaction. I dont think my gym would allow chalk though. Have not seen anybody using chalk at where im training. Is there any bad effect using alternate grip long term? |
