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.

I used farmers carry rickshaw 330 on all lifts. That is all the weight I have. My DL Pr is 285. Can’t believe I got over 300!

Did 221216, results there. Then practiced DLs at 135# with snatch grip. Avoiding lifting heavy for a little while longer to be cautious with my lower back.

Globo wod: as RXed for most. If noise is an issue use mats under the plates. If a Smith machine is all you have do rack pulls. Dumbbells sub dumbbell Romanian deadlifts 5-5-5-5-5, or single leg deadlifts 5x5 each leg. If you max the available dumbbells do AMRAP sets. Novices can do regular dumbbell deadlifts as a scale.

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

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.

Some people call the deadlift dangerous. Think those people will ever need to pick something up off the ground? It's dangerous NOT to train the deadlift.

Once upon a time it was called the Health Lift, true story. It was a lot harder to villainize back then, I'm guessing.

The only dangerous dead is the turtle-back deads. It's not only painful, but also painful to watch.

Gutsy move, Louis! I don't normally think of Rory McKernan as the type of person to go spouting off CrossFit knowledge without any backing! I hope that you enjoyed the article that Matthew shared.
