It's like seeing that dude from school who was always cool but who you had forgotten about

First video in 100 years

WE LOVE BRETT! Congrats on your 605 deadlift!

Deadlift stance is extremely individual. I’m glad you made this video to widen the perspective of newer lifters because most of them seem to assume that everyone does every lift exactly the same.

The monk has returned from the mountains to guide the youth

Hi All, this method worked for me! Better starting position and added 22lb (10Kg) to my Deadlift. From 170 kg to 180 kg, very happy for a 59 yea old. Thanks for the great advice.

No cuts in your coaches explanation, sharp and professional. Love to see so much passion in a person at work

Brett's just been quietly transforming into an absolute beast. So cool! Can't wait for more videos...

I'm 66, 150 lbs, just started deadlifting 6 months ago . I've been stuck at 233 lbs for the last month. I've seen just about every video on deadlifting. You are the only one who's talked about reducing the hip moment arm by narrowing the stance and bowing the legs. I tried it today for the first time and hit 255 lbs for the first time. Not only that, but I felt strong doing it, and envision future gains using your method. Thanks for sharing this!

Two years until a 700 pound deadlift?! What a great goal! I'm looking forward to watching your journey!

Hell Yeah! He is back!

Art of Manliness: Releases new video. Me: It’s been 84 years..

This video has motivated me to get back to the gym. I hope more videos (fitness and non-fitness related) are on the way!

Are you my big brother?

Great video Brett. You were the one that showed me SS. You are what people hoped they would look like in the 10 year challenge.

Hey Brett have you ever considered doing a meet and greet type of thing? I’ve been a follower for 4-5 years from New England but now I’m living in Oklahoma and would love to get the chance to meet you. Keep up the great content!

Great video!

Please post more videos.

I think the Deadlift is my favourite exercise, it's such a powerful exercise!!

guess who’s back? back again? brett is back tell a friend guess who’s back guess who’s back guess who’s back guess who’s back

What is it about the starting strength community that just breaks it down so well and I understand fully what he means the first time. Most other youtube channels I just end up confused or have to watch like 5 times to understand. The methods work and it shows. 605, that is awesome.

It was really cool to revisit this video. Good luck at hitting 700 man! I weigh 225 and am almost to 300. Almost there!

I can't believe you are back.... I so happy to see you sir welcome back🎉🎉🎉

Guy looks like your stereotypical dad yet he can pull 600+ lbs.

What I love about this video, it explains what a lot of people don’t understand, the difference between a exercise and a feat of strength.

Brett, your podcasts are awesome but I'm so happy to see you back here on youtube. You're the man!

Just looking at this guy I would have never attributed those numbers to him.

Your back!!!! 💪🏼❤️ Edit: you put on 40lbs??? How!? Make a video on muscle mass gain!! 💪🏼

You havent made a video in a while. At first you wont get the views you use too and it might bum you out. But if you keep consistency and always keep your head up youll come back to your glory age and maybe even better. Dont stop brett. We love you

Thank you. That "weird" stance saves a couple of centimeter, but what a difference that makes.

You're back!

This technique works so well! I feel the bar move much smoother and can make my reps complete , from bottom to the top.

Brett, you've been missed on KZfaq. Loved getting a notification that you were back with a new video. Love this medium for AoM content!

Those are some solid numbers

No better time for some Back Up Manliness !! Come back and Bring It on !!!

Ooh he came back from Victorian era to 21 century to greet everyone.

Awesome video! This explains so much information I did not know about and in such detail. Great stuff.

So good to to see you back

Man I want more videos from you guys. Can you do more parenting videos! You did such great stuff in the past.

Okay, this literally FIXED my deadlift. We're talking night and day difference... Turns out us lanky lads have a pretty mean pull when we figure out how to get our legs out of the way of the bar... THANK YOU!!!

I thought I’d never see the day when Art of Manliness posted another video

Sumo pullers hate the silver fox.

The legend has returned!

605lb. pull is pretty damn impressive. good job

What a gem of a video. We need more stuff like this and a collab with barbell medicine-which will never happen...but one can hope.

I know Im bit late but Thanks for this video, I picked up few things as pre-loading of the bar and made my stance bit narrower. I also pointed my toes out a bit and now my deadlift feels more solid (at least with working sets). Looking forward to try it on my next pr attempt.

This is new to me, just seen it now 19 oct 2020, will give it a go

Brett, Brotha, I've been following you since 2009. Man, you have come such a long way. I am happy to see this and to get a notification of a video on KZfaq and pinterest. I don't do any of the social accounts. Thank you for this video, and the website and all the helpful content. As always, stay manly! - Bryan

Yay! Happy to have a video from you again. We always are here for you, even if you don't want to make videos.

Very intelligent video. I've always used a fairly "narrow" stance, but nowhere near this level. My current deadlift max is 435 LBs, hoping to shoot it up, might try this after I hit 500 lbs.

Been listening to the AOM podcasts for a long time but it’s great to see you back on KZfaq .

Please post more videos like this. Post your competition videos, and manliness videos on how to be man. People have forgotten how to be man.

605 jesus man I'm still trying to break 400

Two years ago was the prediction of a 700lb deadlift in two years … lessssggggooooo Brett!

He hath returned

Brett!! More videos please! We've missed you

Ahhh, 😌AoM videos, the best kind of videos.

I've never seen anyone super strong Powerlifters Deadlift with their feet that close!

Joey Szatmary explained the closer feet in a recent video as well. Uses less back, and more leg drive when you bring your feet closer, and knees wider. I started training my deadlift for the first time about a month ago. I'm at a 500lbs deadlift for one rep currently. When my feet were wider, my lower back was fried for a week at a time between lifts. With closer feet, my back is less strained and I can train more often. Definitely look into mimicking this stance if you're training more often than once a week/every other week. Your CNS will be fine.

Thank god a new vídeo

This is one of the most helpful deadlift videos I have seen . Thanks!

Welcome back! and love the new video editing style looks good!

love those tube socks

Excellent video as always, Brother! Please keep videos like these and your older ones coming, as they are informative, interesting, and entertaining. Meanwhile, keep up the great work with AOM!

Great video and really interesting advice. I'm on a 400lb deadlift, so will probably wait until I get closer to 450 before I try this.

Brett: So glad you're doing KZfaq again.

My god. He posted, what have we done to be graced by this miracle.

700, let’s go!!

Hey late to the video here but just wanted to say keep up the great work. I've been a reader since you first started, really can't thank you enough for all the great articles over the years.

Very nice video guys. Great information. I was just doing my squats and dead’s yesterday :) I love his home gym. Ive been putting some serious thought into getting my own. I think I could build one for under 4K. My public gym is way too small with no designated dead lifting area and only 2 squat racks. When its busy, I don’t bother going until 8pm which is a drag.

This is an awesome video. I had started deadlifting like this about a year ago since it feels comfortable to me. Definitely would recommend it to experience lifters.

It's been far too long.Thanks for the video!

Brett is back! Please give us more videos!

Seeing this on my newsfeed made my day

Really cool that you kept working on this stuff

Incredible progress, keep it up!

Nice! New video from AoM is always a treat

Very glad to see you posting videos again (even if it's only one).

no way! after 104 more or less podcasts, an actually video?!?!

I'd love to get Mark's input on this.

Good to see you back sr.

That 215 press is impressive

hey man, I just used the same stance, or very similar, yesterday. works like a charm. really interesting. Would love to see a vid about how you program your training these days. And as it is roughly 2 years since you made that video: did you pull 700 yet?

I decided to narrow my stance and it felt more natural. Plus I hit a PR with the stance adjustments.

This is just what I needed, very informative! Thanks

I start this narrow stanc for 2 weeks before i saw this video and never feelt så strong!. For me it work awesome

I Have to say great video, I love you enthusiasm so inspirational. i am going to try and implement some of the things you said into my own life.

He is alive!!!

Great to see you back. God Bless.

It is great to see a new video on my favorite channel

Waited forever for a video from you!

Brett aging like port wine - rich, thick, and full-bodied!

Awesome Video Guys!
