Holy shit thank you guys so much for letting me know about this wonderful lift. I feel like Superman every time I go to the gym ever since starting these three days ago:
>start at 1pl8 for 5 reps >2pl8 at 10 reps the next day >2.5pl8 at 20 reps with the straight bar and 10 reps with five farmer's walks with the hex bar at 2.5pl8 for 20 paces a time
Why aren't you doing deadlifts right now?
Ryan Nguyen
Wtf is that thing in op pic?
Bentley Sullivan
Hex bar
Colton Powell
Hex deadlift isnt the same as normal.
Grayson Ross
i heard its not as good cuz unnatural body position
Justin Powell
It feels a little easier for me and I can get my farmer's walk in at the same time.
I also do straight bar for max impact.

Leo Lewis
I feel like the hex bar just works my quads and really doesn't do much for my glutes and hamstrings. I used to use the Hex to pretty much do squats without holding the weight on my traps because I had a fucked shoulder.
But yeah, congrats OP.
Bentley Allen
People discuss music they listen to on /mu/
Are you saying you come here to discuss routines without lifting?
Jonathan Torres
Hex deadlift literally is more of a squat than a deadlift.
It should not be called a deadlift and you should not treat it like a deadlift or substitute it as a deadlift.
Your hex SQUATS are not your actual deadlift stats because it is not a deadlift.
Do deads if you want to do deadlifts, do squats if you want to do squats, either proper exercise is 100x better than this.
Luis Brooks
honestly they're a great hybrid especially if you wear oly shoes while you do them.
don't be mad.
Anthony Evans
>using upper handles.
WOW GREAT ROM PUSSY.
Easton Taylor
Deadlift GOAT. easily my favorite (and best) lift. even if you are just intermediate they look impressive to normies
Ryan Johnson
I do both you goober.
David Johnson
This guy probably does sumo deads
Dominic Jenkins
>even if you are just intermediate they look impressive to normies
So true. I am a hungry skeleton triathlete and I get normies mirin when I deadlift just 100kg
Daniel Collins
gym chariot put 1pl8 on it, tie up manlets, go anywhere forever
Parker Gutierrez
My deadlift is weak as fuck. Only managed to get 285 lbs 1x5 when my squat is at 255 lbs 5x5. Wat do
Jaxon Fisher
>2016 >race war in the US >not doing snatch grip deadlifts not gonna make it m80
Josiah Allen
>snatch grip deadlifts I looked that up and it's exactly how I do my straight bar deadlift.
Nolan Bennett
it's nice for a juicy upper back, isn't it?
Adam Carter
I noticed that my back feels the tightest that it's been ever and lat pulldowns have been a breeze since.
Gavin Roberts
>Wat do
More deadlifts. Maybe some farmer's walks to improve grip.
Jonathan Myers
>Doesn't actually have sex but posts on /gif/ anyway
Chase Edwards
>the type of bar you use determines your movement and angle
Kill yourself.
Nolan Wilson
why not pullups?
Evan Fisher
I guess deadlifts are easier to get a good strain going on back there? I'm almost certain my pullup form is shit too.
Ryan Wilson
>2016 >not wanting to look juicy and actually strong
The autism is real.
Charles Collins
No you muppet is easier because the handles are at a height. I use hex bar on a small plinth. Job done
Camden Sanchez
but.... it does wat
Caleb Thomas
>Why aren't you doing deadlifts right now Because I snapped my shit up from going hard all the time.
Parker Torres
Underrated
t. manlet
Liam Davis
I know what they are but I've been to about 6 gyms and never seen one.
Adam Peterson
a guy working out where they don't have 35s
Cooper Ramirez
>tfw 4 plate is now my volume weight

Charles Richardson
I do sumo hex deads, get on my level
Dylan Carter
Are you literally retarded? How is this a fucking squat?
Lincoln Baker
To do a straight bar deadlift like a hex bar, it would go through your shins
Brandon Gutierrez
Which of the three have you never done? Be honest.
Sorry you have to change your ""deadlift"" stats, user
Joshua Jackson
Nice ad hominem faggot
Lucas Garcia
I deadlift the other day and now my cns is recovering.
