How to Warm Up for the Deadlift

To warm up for the back squat, the lifter should perform general movements that work every joint through its full range of motion. Air squats, ring rows, lunges, shoulder circles, and push-ups are good choices for the general warm-up. For the specific warm-up, a great option is Romanian deadlifts with a pause in the bottom position. Another one is a 3-to-5-second tempo deadlift on the way down and a 1-second count on the way up with a PVC pipe or empty bar. The athlete should then be ready to transition to their warm-up sets in the deadlift.

Spelling mistake under "Common Deadlift Workouts": "handstand pugs-up". Otherwise... Excellent overview! Concise AND comprehensive.

Bonjour, auriez-vous des conseils sur quelle manique acheter pour faire du soulevé de terre ? Au passage, très bonne vidéo ! Celle-ci est très bien expliqué

I am new and 47. I just recently maxed a PR of 335. Feeling optimistic for sure!

New to CrossFit. What are weights for each exercise? I'm 60 yr old male 150 lb

yesterday's workout listed this but find in todays

Been a long time since I last checked the comments. So glad I did. Where else would I find a spirited conversation on the deadlift? This made my day.

Love a good deadlift! My current 1RM is 245 conventional with switch grip :)

I try this movement but if you don't do it properly, it can ruin your back.

back squat 130kg (286lbs)

shoulder press 90kg (198lbs)

deadlift 170kg (374lbs)

total 858

Anyone reading this lacking the benefit of proper coaching should be aware that you can tie your back into knots doing it wrong by being forward onto your toes. That happened to me until a coach said "stay on your heals". Fixed, instantly. Now I'm happily at 2x bodyweight, and it feels easy. All those deadlifts in the open were a breeze.

As Rx:

I used a bunch of sets as I never try singles and haven’t been going heavy lately. I prefer to work on sets of 5.

Squat (285): (2.08 xBW)

started using banded low box pause squats x 5, then went into 3s and then singles. 285 lbs Squat. May have been able to go heavier but have a nagging lower back pain and didn’t want to further injur it.

Press: (155): (1.14 BW)

I started with 95 x5 then went a bit heavier and after 135 started with singles. I may have slightly dipped a little on last round.

DL (385): (2.82 BW)

I had to use a hex bar as there were a bunch of guys doing DL around me and that was my only option. 405 almost came up but not today.

Total of 6.04 BW (825 Total).

Not too bad but I should train heavier and be able to get to 7x, but I was happy enough with it.

used a belt for first time in a long time and I never do singles. So I’m not ready to really explode and fire off a single correctly, but overall I was happy.

lots of snowboarding yesterday and running my dog every day long in the woods, plus lots of work on my half bath renovation project and I used solid form as I was nursing a lower back pull so I was kind of cautious.

Shoulder Press from 45-95#

Dead Lift from 135-165#

No pain and form felt good for each, so a win despite the lower weights.

Might be the difference between a high bar vs. low bar squat. In the video, this is a high bar squat which lends the torso to stay vertical....I much prefer the low bar squat myself when getting heavier, which utilizes more hip drive.

Check out this site below for more in depth insights between the two.

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT

Nothing to rant about

WORKOUT THEMES

Short and heavy. High output followed by a long rest. Squatting with heavy weight in two different ways, one more of an emphasis on pushing, and pushing overhead with heavy weight. More strength than skill.

ASSUMED

I am experienced enough to know how to "game" the lifts and set up a plan for what weights to hit on which attempt.

MAIN DECISION

Do I have enough time to dedicate to truly give honest 1 rep max attempts at 3 lifts?

TECHNIQUE SCALE

Pick one lift and do a regular max effort format.

CONSISTENCY SCALE

Pick one weight to practice at for each lift, set a timer to a half hour, and rotate between lifts. Rest as needed.

INTENSITY SCALE

Technique scale, but do a short sprint or burpee set before each lifting set, using fatigue to make the weight feel heavier.

MY STUFF

Basketball instead, 3 attempts at going for the best consecutive streak at midrange. Shooting a basketball is really a push press of sorts, so I can kind of count this as one of the CrossFit Total lifts.

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 4

Globo scale: For this, it is strongly recommended to find a gym with the proper equipment and follow the scaling recommendations if needed. Most globos will have a barbell, rack and plates. If you are using iron plates today use spotter arms in a rack or a spotter for the squats, and the rack for the press. If needed lay down mats to lessen the noise on the deadlifts. If you are in Planet Fitness, hotel, or a similar gym (or only have dumbbells), load up the Smith Machine (yes I know) or work up to a heavy dumbbells front squat, strict dumbbell shoulder press, and dumbbell deadlift. If you max out the dumbbells, go for max reps of the movements with good form.

Busy gym: Just hog the rack or platform today.

Bodyweight/equipmentless subs: warmup then perform three sets of max weighted pistols, strict HSPUs , and banded good mornings or supermans, (or try to deadlift your car or some odd object, safety first). Scale as needed. Finish off with some short intense sprints.
