Feb 6, 2012 3:58 PM: This is THE beast of exercises. If your not really seeing the progression you want, I found doing good, heavy, deep squats on leg day (I do deadlifts on back day) compliment these well.

Sep 27, 2011 7:48 AM: Love it or hate it you gotta include deadlifts in your routine. A piece of advice, perfect your form first and avoid loading up the plates to quickly. Of all the exercises in the gym, deadlifts are the hardest to perfect and easiest to injure yourself with. One final note, do NOT curl your back....+See More

Sep 22, 2011 10:50 AM: How is this different than the Romanian Deadlift? I do both, but I don't think I'm doing one of them right because they feel esentially the same. Any ideas?

Jun 11, 2011 12:28 AM: There is no excercise in existance that is as NEEDED and ESSENTIAL as the barbell deadlift, it literally attacks every muscle in your body and causes more horomone output than any other excercise. it truly is king
