I love supersetting my squat workout with an entire deadlift workout. Currently typing this from my wheelchair.

I love shorts with real advice instead of bullshit

I squat and deadlift separately because you’re my coach and that’s how you program it

You can do deadlifts then front squats, and squat then RDLs/snatch grip/banded/or deficits

Been squatting and deadlifting on the same day for years, though I usually deadlift first. If I try it the other way around, I always quit deadlifts early. I also go walk on a treadmill or just rest for about 30 minutes in between and have a banana or little snack.

I do idc :D

I thought this will be a troll video too but this is legit information. Good info matt

I’ve always had to bend over quite far when squatting, even with a wide stance, to reach depth, so I generally don’t deadlift and squat on the same day because my lower back eats a lot of abuse on both exercises, and I’m very cautious about my back.

God bless you all and your families 🙏🏽✝️🛐🛐

You can do heavy squats and light deadlifts one week and switch the next week

i prefer ur voice over the tiktok voice a lot more matt

Very good topic, informative and useful

I do heavy deadlifts first high rep squats second on Tuesdays, and heavy squats first high rep deadlifts second and Saturdays. My logic is that I manage to do both of these two times a week and also manage to do both heavy low rep and medium high rep for both deadlifts and squats

Matt, you are so freaking strong, I know you know that! Straight up beast!

I do lightweight deadlifts to warm up my lower back for squats

I started lifting doing squats and deadlifts on the same day. At some point I started lifting heavy enough where that was way too draining. After I get done doing squats or deadlifts, I don't feel like doing any major, heavy lifts

Well said. He did won the recent IPF comp.

If I go heavy i do them separately. But if I'm going for volume, I do them same day.

The problem as a beginner, like me, when i squat and deadlift the same day, i have no energy left to do any other leg exercises, but it is always fun to combine the both in the same day.

The most beautiful thing about this is you seem to be natural.. i mean i could always be wrong but that is crazy strong

Major Facts!

Ur strong as hell

So does this mean you incorporate deadlifts into a pull routine day or you have a strictly deadlift day with nothing else?

Dude for leg day, which I do every 5 days, I do in sequence, 5 sets of squats, 4 sets of Bulgarians, 5 sets of deadlifts, 4 sets of Romanian deadlifts, 3 sets of hip thrusts for high reps than 4 sets of high volume calf raises. Feels like shit but the bounce just multiplies afterwards.

As a low frequency person myself, I like to do my 5x5 on squats (alternating back and front), then some clean pulls at 50-80% weight. Helps me get some explosiveness while doing work for my posterior chain.

The man has spoken 😎

I fucking love that gentle deadlift, no smashing ♥️♥️

From my expierence in HS powerlifting, our legs were never sore enough to hurt our squats after doing heavy deadlifts in practice

Hey Matt, can you do a video on when and how properly to use a belt?

ive started putting my squats on upper days, while my deadlifts stay on lower days. It's been working out pretty well, though i have had to lower RPE to deal with lower back soreness extending into other days.

Deads first, followed by squats, always, this workout will cut through any doubts about what makes a person functionally strong for what life will throw at you.

What about squat and bench? (Doing Smolov Jr)

What do you think of having heavy squat and deadlift days, and then lighter "volume work" for the deadlift in the squat day and the same for squats on a deadlift day? Wouldn't that result in both frequency AND being fresh for each respective lift?

i have a question. Do you deadlift on leg or back days?

I do a low weight+intensity dead lift accessory on squat day and vice versa, works very well

I stopped doing that and split my legs into anterior (quads, tibia) and posterior (glute, ham, calves) days. This allowed me to do significantly more volume and recover better.

Just tried SBD to max em all out and see how I would theoretically do if I competed and oh my, my deadlifts felt heavy af during the warmups. I PR’d my squat but trying to deadlift afterwards was not the move. Granted at the moment I don’t want to compete but maybe in the future🤔

My high school coach treated squat and deadlift like peanut butter and jelly, can’t have one without the other

How about benching after squat or deadlift. Ive seen a bunch of lifters do this and what im running is this way too

My objective is to build big quads and hamstrings, i have acess to a free gym but it has no machines, only smith machine and bars to add weights, so can i just do both squat and deadlift on the same day? but something like for higher reps instead of strenght focused?

Whatever you say dude, you’re a beast! I started taking my training outside of armwrestling more seriously after watching your channel more, great motivation, chasing 300lbs bench and 350 squat at 180, wish me luck, I’m trying here 🙌

I don’t understand push pull leg split. You deadlift the day before you squat? Your legs are gonna be sore even with conventional. It’s a great back workout but I don’t know, I feel like you’ll be fatigued come leg day the day after. Should you deadlift and squat twice a week? Or deadlift once a week?

is lifting every other day (work-rest-work-rest-work) considered low frequency?

I like squatting before my deadlift. It almost is as if it warms up my quads etc for my pulls. (Sumo) I usually squat 90percent single and deadlift a 85-95 percent top single on single days. I also never do reps on both on the same days. If I do a 3 rep on squat @ 75-85 percent I will only do a 85% single on deadlift etc

What about benching and deadlifting on the same day?

Hello matt vena on my leg days i like to go squatinf and dead lifting but like im no power lifter n i have only been working out for a year so should i just save dead lifting for an individual day by itself?

I do full body 3 times a week so i have to squat and deadlift on the same day, should I not do that Or is it fine for relative beginners?

I deadlifted 340, 350 and 360 then squat 315, 225, 135 last Saturday I felt ok

I dont understand, I went to the gym to max on deadlift one day right, and I hit a pr(520) with no exercise before that, but less then 4 weeks later I had a powerlifting meet, at the meet I had went max on squat rpe 10 rpe 9 on bench press, and I hot a deadlift pr of 525, why wasnt I fatigued from the squat at the meet

Jxmy highroller 🎶

I squat 6 days a week and do a heavy pull on one of those days, I press 4 days a week and bench once.

Honestly I like squatting before so my deadlifts. It’s hard for my hips to get lose other wise I pull sumo. And I don’t have the longest arms. So doing light weight reps A2G SQUATS help me a lot!

Beast

i’ve always wondered what’ the belt does when they’re lifting

wait can someone sum up this video i didnt understand what it meant fully, im not a powerlifter so what do ido>?

Me

Agree, but I personally always do them on the same day. Heavy squat / speed deadlifts & heavy deads / rep or speed squats. I always feel stronger on my deads when I do squat first. Nothing warms up the body like a squat

My back hurts just from watching that. Yeesh!

Do you think 50% of Nattys lifters can get to a 700lbs deadlift

Tell shane Hunt this 😂 but yeah i agree for the most part

I do same day I just alternate what I start with

If I do an upper and lower split, would it be okay if I put deadlifts in the upper days and squats in the lower days?

Alternate Title: Do you wanna walk tomorrow?

starting strength, stronglifts 5x5 and a variation of those all insist on squats every session, including the deadlift session. Are they wrong, or is this okay for beginner-intermediate lifters?

Can I jerk the bar against my thighs during sumo deadlift? Will it count during powerlift competition

ive done squats and deads many times

I found doing heavy compound lifts in one workout too much for my body to recover from better concentrating on heavy lifts on separate days

What if I do push pull legs

Why these all old videos?

That’s how you do a fucking deadlift, you finish all the way through to the ground slowly. The guys that drop that shit uncontrolled are only getting half the workout

Bit of a limited answer you gave here. Your answer assumes that people want to perform the squat and deadlift at the same intensity, volume, and variations that they would want to do on individual days. There are very popular combinations that allow for lifters to do both on the same day without aiming to induce the same kind of training stimulus that they would if they split it up: back squat + romanian dls, dl + front squat, etc. Should you refrain from doing leg press on "deadlift" days? Should you not do good mornings on "squat" days? This whole splitting up idea is actually most applicable to competing powerlifters and not the casual lifter or general lifting enthusiast. If you're worried about your squats fatiguing your deadlifts (i.e. "I can't hit the same % for the same reps after doing squats!"), you're probably competing.

Huh I've always done both on leg day and have gotten to 405 for 5. Maybe I'll change it up

Dl on bacl day but i can go heavy on all 4 same day no prob

Sorry bro I am a powerlifter and I do all compound workout in same day yeah it is tough but this is only way I am becoming stronger What I recommend people Do low frequency heavy lift (1-5 reps) for compound lift (go as fast as possible) it will help to protect your joints Example - Deadlift, Squat, Bench Press Then go for high volume drop weight training for muscle concrete workout (15-18 reps) (go as slow as possible) Example - Bicep Curl, Tricep extension, lat pulldown etc.

Only squat and DL same day if you're body building

i don't even squat and deadlift in the same month.

Squort Nd doodluft

What if i lets say do a 5-8×3 Heavy Deadlift and a casual 12×3 squat on the same day? Im doing full body 5× a week and I want to do the big 3 3times a week, so not sure if that even makes sense now

I lift bench ,squat and dead lifts..5x5's

This guy's looks are so deceptive.. He should look at least 3 times of his current size according to the norms

Wait, what defines a low frequency? I deadlift and squat on different days.

Deadlift Heavy Squat volume on Tuesday Squat heavy RDL volume on Friday

5'9?

But should I shit before deadlifting/squatting?

I love to squat and deadlift on the same day cause them legs are noodles when I am done. I don't compete in any sports tho. I just like to challenge my body and see how it turns out!

Thank you for getting rid of the robot voice

I definitely shouldn’t. You probably should.

If you squat and deadlift on different days lets you squat and deadlift harder.

Canadian clarence look alike

400th

They seem small to be able to lift all that weight. But if they did, great job bro that is what is up

3rd

Unless you do CrossFit and you do multiple movements per session

1000th like

I thought of some questions for your Q&A video: Is utilizing super sets/circuits detrimental to hypertrophy? How long can TUT be until it becomes harmful to the muscle? Should I deadlift once a week? What are some creative ways to incorporate variety into my routines? What are other effective routine schedules similar to PPL rest PPL rest, etc.

2nd

Seperate...fuck that. No way would i do both on the same day not heavy at least.

Definitely agree about separating squats and deadlifts. It's interesting though how individualized frequency can be. I've personally always done well squatting 2x per week and deadlifting 1x per week. But I know plenty of people that deadlift 2-3x per week like it's no big deal.

Matt vena sumo deadlift dont count thats a girls way to deadlift do conventioneel deadlifts like a real man.

Do you inject after squat or before dead tho?
