There are countless advantages to including bands in your workouts. Here are 3 of my favorites.
The major drawback of band exercises is that, after a while, they stop making you stronger. Before there is a chance of breaking, they can only be stretched so far and come in so thick. In a...

You should not hyperextend your lower back when you deadlift. The deadlift ends when your hips and knees are locked and your shoulders line up with your hips.

6 Reasons Deadlifts Are Awesome, by Charles Staley –
Although deadlifts might seem a bit "expensive" for some because they initially require a learning curve, and also because they negatively impact your recovery compared to other movements, no other single exercise provides as many benefits...
Don’t quit doing an exercise just because it hurts.
.
Let me say this again. If you’re doing an exercise and it begins to hurt, and it has not hurt in the past, then your body is trying to make you aware of something. The pain you feel is your body’s way of saying, “Pay attention to me...

Last but not least, use your natural build for a deadlift advantage. Lifters with longer legs and shorter torsos will usually be able to lift more weight in a sumo stance - this is why women are typically better sumo deadlifters than conventional deadlifters. If you have a long torso and shorter...

The Recovery Intrusive Deadlift
.
The deadlift is a "takes more than it gives" movement. It's recovery intrusive, possibly more than any other compound movement. No lift causes a greater degree of "workout hangover" than heavy and hard deadlifting. Why? Most coaches say it's because of the...
There's the belief that deadlifting from a big deficit (like 4 inches or so) will improve your strength off the floor in a standard deadlift. It won't. It's too dissimilar to transfer over to your conventional deadlift. But with a very small deficit – my go-to is standing on a standard 45-pound...
