The deadlift is among the most basic exercises you’ll be able to embody in any energy program, however is it killing your beneficial properties? On this video, I react to the latest interview Robert Oberst did with Joe Rogan on the JRE podcast wherein the world champion strongman said that until you had been a aggressive deadlifted, you need to keep away from the motion all collectively in your workouts as a result of the danger reward ratio just isn’t definitely worth the potential damage significantly in case you are an expert athlete.
I believe it’s truthful to start out by saying that I’ve been identified to bury just a few unhealthy exercises in my iron graveyard. Particularly, I imagine that the upright row and behind the neck shoulder press are two of the worst exercises you might ever embody in your workouts and needs to be averted in any respect prices. Not solely are they extremely more likely to result in damage however there are superior alternate options that nullify even doing them within the first place.
That stated, the deadlift just isn’t a type of exercises that I’d recommend not doing. I imagine it is among the most basic motion patterns for not simply our coaching plans however for day-after-day life. The necessity to carry out it accurately nevertheless is magnified attributable to the truth that the hundreds able to being lifted on this train exceed what could possibly be achieved on another single train.
I do suppose it’s useful to use some context to what Robert is saying nevertheless. He’s coming from an expertise set that demanded he elevate as a lot as he presumably may to be able to win no matter competitors he was competing in. The distinction between first and second place may come all the way down to lifting a weight or not. If a compromise in kind was wanted to do this, so be it. The top outcome nevertheless was that together with some titles got here some undesirable physique breakdown that would result in regrets down the street.
The feedback made in regards to the actuality of professional sports activities weight rooms are very true. I can let you know having spent a substantial amount of time in skilled sports activities coaching athletes that these guys aren’t usually the most effective lifters. They bought to the place they’re due to their unimaginable innate abilities and bodily items. Usually instances, they discovered poor lifting method at an early age and their skill to compensate by way of it makes it tough to identify as they make their approach up by way of faculty and to the professionals.
Forcing these athletes to carry out lifts which can be imagined to be good for them when their our bodies will not be ready for them correctly, may result in repercussions that would value them their careers and the aim of why they’re the place they’re within the first place. That is very true once you notice that there are different exercises like the facility clear and cling clear that may give a coaching impact with fewer unintended effects if they’re coping with deadlifting limitations.
This all underscores the significance of redefining what energy actually is. It’s not merely including an increasing number of plates to the ends of the bar. As a substitute, it’s realizing that energy is based on stability. The power to maintain your physique free from compensation and elevate a weight as mechanically supposed with out subjecting areas of the physique to stresses they shouldn’t usually incur. This doesn’t all the time present itself as blatantly unhealthy kind. As mentioned within the video, it may be rather a lot much less apparent.
The underside line is, the deadlift is a vital train that I imagine shouldn’t be averted. It needs to be discovered and discovered early nevertheless. In case you’re in search of applications that educate you ways to do that vital elevate the precise approach and program it into our daily workout applications, make sure to click on the hyperlink beneath and pick the ATHLEAN-X program that most closely fits your particular objectives.

Billion Dollar NFL says don’t do deadlifts, some bloke off the internet says he knows better ha ha. You have to love these people.
The deadlift is "PRIMAL" its a great exercise sure it has damaged spines but not if your doing it right and not wrong. What if you want to single leg takedown a fat ADHD meth ninja DEADLIFT, what if your playing pc games all day and your posture is bent DEADLIFT, what if you want to pick up a 150kg stone and throw it on a crackheads car DEADLIFT.
Deadlift are what made my legs [hamstring mass] go from 21 inch to 28 inch and overal leg size and middle to upper Mack size they are what fixed my back posture too and they helped me learning to activate my abdominal muscles and glutes which then helpers my squat which then helped my bench of having my glutes on the bench and tight abs, and I’ve done them for 5 years and this guy telling me they’re killing my gains
?😑?
I'm calling bullshit on this. It's probably true to dudes tryin to lift dinosaur weights but if you're doin relatively normal weight..nothing too excessive…it can only help you.
ok I won't deadlift
risk to reward ratio doesnt apply to those that do mobility work to not have collapsing hips when they load the spine
Next video title: "Gains are killing your gains!"
So how do you correct putting more weight on one side
Hey Jeff! How did you help the kid that had unequal weight when performing lifts? I have that same problem….
Is it okay to keep my deadlift weight the same forever? I like how the deadlift makes me feel but I’d hate to deal with injury. I rather stay safe then go up weight n fuck up my back. That’s the only exercise I’d keep Same weight with
Doing it correctly it’s an amazing exercise.
Brilliant exercise when done correctly. Problem is, it is difficult for many people to do them correctly. using even slightly heavier than comfortable weights can lead to breakdown in form and thus injury.
I personally wouldn't recommend them unless you've had a professional personal trainer approve the way you are doing them. One of the easiest exercises to get injured on
look my video 700 kg partial dead lift
since years i hear this is destroying your gains and that is destroying your gains, i just have to say for once and at all STFU
ppl get injured because they ignore form and just add weight as soon as they think they can handle it. Deadlift just punishes you for being stupid.
Imma start doing power cleans instead💯
Bench Press and Squats are killing your gains
Preach it!
The fact that one can have a great form and still a disk can just pop out bc you were not stable enough, that should make people aware of how dangerous deadlift can be for their spine health! I mean, how can you even recommend people keep doing deadlift when you yourself say you need stability. Oh yeah and how would people even know they are "stable enough" when lifting? Do you believe we all have payed trainers checking our forms?!
Bob and Brad says in their chanel, you can do everything right, you don't even have to lift heavy and still you can damage our spine. And this often reveals itself when you get a bit older. So yes deadlifts with weights etc does not seem its worth the risk
Maybe I'm oversimplifying here, but it appears (to me) that in order to hang and power clean, the first half of the movement is a DEADLIFT.
Love robert but he's self admitted that his lower back isn't great and that he throws it out quite a bit. So he's not the guy to take advice from on deadlifts UNLESS you yourself have lower back issues.
The JRE clip was the reason I searched this.. Nice one👌
Hard to make a case for doing heavy deadlifts. Pro athletes aren't doing it.
You can be big and strong, look great, and live a long, healthy lift without doing it once.
I can see doing 100 lbs, but 300-400 lbs? For what? there are plenty of other exercises that will build your back, posterior chain, etc. without risking injury like the deadlift. It's just not worth it.
Thankyou Jeff for your input.. I've just started deadlifting about a month ago and I really enjoy it. I have started to see a lot of conflicting information about it such as that pod and I was gutted tbh. I'm glad you cleared this up in detail and I do hope your stance on the deadlift is still the same today..
noone will read this but the way he talks reminds me of a church pastor
I have a work related lower back injury from years ago. Just got back into weight lifting a couple of months ago and every time I deadlift, the days after my lower back hurts so bad I cant work out or even put on my shoes for a week or more. I switched to power cleans a few weeks ago and it doesn't cause extreme pain the days after. I'll revisit deadlifts in a few weeks and if it trashes my back again I'm just going to eliminate them from my workouts for good.
What gaiins? This dude just wants you lean and weak
I've trained for 31 years, did deads the first couple of years, endless back issues from them, despite my efforts to use good form. 28 years of compensating with other exercises, no issues, strong back and good size. If you don't NEED to do them (because many don't know how to), don't do them.
Excellent information, my respect has just jumped up a notch. Truth Speak!
Deadlifts are more dangerous than other exercises though
I've been skipping the gym in order to work on my time machine. Once that is up and running, I'll travel back to when I was young, and learn proper deadlift technique.
I don’t Barbell deadlift. I use the hex bar. Don’t care, won’t change. I also do the upright cable row. Don’t care, won’t change 🙃
… Not Barbell deadlifting is a choice I make for myself because I know I don’t have the mind-body coordination to execute it successfully every single time. I.E., I know the risk outweighs the reward FOR ME.
Every single professional baseball player that I’ve ever met utilizes deadlift heavily in their training regiment. To say “Anyone that’s getting paid to compete” is just completely wrong. Sorry.
Upright rows are a very good choice for side delts actually!
I don't know. I disagree. I do two leg days a week, and I took deadlifts out of my program purely for effectiveness. Similar to squats, it takes a lot of time for warm up stretching and set-ups.I can use that time for a lot of different exercises and at some point it felt pointless. Are deadlifts u good? Yes. Is it irreplaceable? Nah.
Now I know why players have hamstring issues! The leg should be balanced , which is how I’ve been taught.
My PT has me doing deadlifts to strengthen my lower back and it’s worked well.
Your an amazing rapper jeff the way you keep explaining, to avoid spraining and to keep contemplating, exercising.
Deadlifts Army)) If somebody advising u to do deadlifts ignore him and slowly walk away.
Breathing is killing your gains
Before I even watch anymore of this after the pod cast I just want to say I don't give a fuck about risk to reward ratio that comes with deadlift. I love love dead lift. I'm gonna keep doing. I only get about 40 percent of my week that is free so I'm gonna keep doing. I've to go to work everyday. The risk to reward ratio in that exercise 1 to zero.
Hate the title of the video
Deadlifting doesn't have to be super heavy everytime you train it. I think that's the problem. People think deadlift and they think they have to lift their absolute maximum.
You can deadlift well within your limits and train that movement to see the benefits. It doesn't always have to be heavy
Power cleaning is actually more dangerous
I do deadlift to Get more testo boost. What Else can i do, to get more testosteron in my workout. Whitout hurtig my self .
I hurt my back deadlifting about 5 years ago and it really sucked. I felt weak for years. I started lifting off an 8 inch platform and I'll never go back.
The point which you Jeff and all people in the comments section don't get, is that with the power clean you also do the deadlift…………
It's about the amount of weight you use, not the actual motion
More females should deadlift or lift in general. It destroys osteoporosis later in life…
I did deadlifts for the first time last night, finally got it perfect tonight. It really feels different from other exercises. I felt great after each set.
