Had a pro strongman program me some good mornings. Try them with a safety squat bar inside the rack and bring them to a dead stop at the pins at the depth where your deadlift or stiff legged deadlift would start. Brutal and such a good carry over to both squat and deadlift. Good luck to you all on your lifting

I will definitely be trying this Pete, I’m 164bw with a max 585 deadlift, anything more and I end up hitching.. I feel I may be weaker in my upper middle back and hamstrings, so this looks like it should help with my lock out. Thanks for the inspiration

Some back raise machines have the top component (pads & handles) as a separate piece. If this is the case, you can sometimes reverse the handles by unbolting this piece and rotating it vertically 180 degrees. Handles always got in my way until I realised that a spanner would solve the issue.

I don't have a 45 degree one i just have a 90 degree one at the gym and I agree it's a good deadlift builder I get super light headed when I go heavy and my hamstrings/upper back kill the next day. Same with stiff leg dls with dumbbells.

@MarijuanaGuy 2 жыл бұрын

This or hip thrusts are key in building a stronger deadlift. The posterior chain is the prime mover in the deadlift and 99% of the time, your posterior chain isn't strong enough to lift more weight.

As a former client of Pete’s, the new recommendation is to use a wide grip and 25lbs plates for more range of motion. Also use much higher rep ranges (10+)

My deadlift is just short of 500lbs. I did them for the first time today with just 90lbs for 4x8. I already know I'm going to do them twice a week on my Squat and Deadlift days, that's how awesome they are. Question I have though: Would it make sense to do them with a Snatch(wider) grip in order to get more ROM?

What about underhand grip if you're trying to rehab your scapula?

@strongmansam289 7 жыл бұрын

Ascended Serenity would be very careful of biceps tearing. Would do other movements for that purpose rather than create more risk in this one.

@MegamanXLT 7 жыл бұрын

Sam Le Cerf what's some good examples. My right scapula is out of alignment from pressing. Right trap, right side if my upper chest, and right below my ac joint it's all tight and sore. Between my scapula and spine it makes a crunching noise everytime I retract.

@strongmansam289 7 жыл бұрын

Ascended Serenity without knowing exactly what the issues are from not seeing you in person or having notes from a physio, who i advise you go see not listen to some guy off youtube (i am qualified so I'm not a complete nonce) id say you have imbalances in the lower traps and mid traps, and some extreme tightness in your pecs and shoulders. Some exercises to strengthen the weak muscles: Reverse Shrugs from a Chin Up Hang, Resistance Band Scapula Retraction. Each of these are often ignored in doing the full movement so doing a superset of these, 3x10 with a 2 count hold on each rep will pre activate and slowly stabilise your scapula. And to relieve tension on your anterior, get a golf, lacrosse, cricket or baseball and do 3x30 second rounds daily with it applying heavy pressure (this should fucking hurt) right at the insertion point of your pecs, where it intersects with the deltoid. Maybe even take a month off pressing movements to get some movement back through that area. Any further information, as I've already given out a lot for free, please message my instagram or Facebook account (same name) and we can set something up. Hope this helps.

@MegamanXLT 7 жыл бұрын

Sam Le Cerf yeah i keep a lacrosse ball with me at work amd dig into my anterior delt and upper chest. It almost feels strained through there and goes all the way into my bicep tendon. I've done those hanging shrugs two or three times but never consistently. I internally rotate all day on the computer at work. I actually made the decision myself before even reading this to do two back/should er days a week (just raises on shoulders) for at least a month. My chest is very pronounced as is and I notice that when I'm super barrel chested my delts don't look nearly as good. When I let my chest shrink down my delts look much more pronounced.

@strongmansam289 7 жыл бұрын

Ascended Serenity possibly a front deltoid issue then. What I would be doing, if not too weird at work, would be finding a wall, standing face against it and doing 3x20 scapula retractions every hour. You may not feel this, but it at least will be placing some tension on the converse musculature. Regarding back days, it is even more imperative you do those two exercises EVERY session before you train. One of the issues I believe you may have is mid back connectivity and over use of your upper traps in rowing and raising movements.

We just remove the handles in our “office” gym. Most are bolted on, so it’s as easy as unscrewing the nuts. Without the handles, the machine / 45° bench fits any shoulder-width, any grip style (narrow or wide), bar on traps, whatever. 🙂
