When did you guys realise that deadlifts are not necessary for aesthetics?

When did you guys realise that deadlifts are not necessary for aesthetics?

In fact I'd say they're so physically taxing that you're better of using your energy for other exercises.

right of the ghetto

deadlifts are strenght builder, not look unless lower back involved

you have to do them if you want to be strong

deadlifts are
P A T R I C I A N

YOU MUST DEADLIFT

When you can deadlift north of 500lbs, then you get an opinion

deadlifts are fun you dork

...

Anyone else /herniateddisk/ from dl's here?

I bet you look terrible OP.

Nothing to do with deadlifts. Just that 99% of people who talk shit about things other people do, tend to look awful themselves.

Who say they are needed for a good body?
I have went to a couple of gyms here and only have seen like 3 people doing dl and was 2 guys and 1 girl

I dont know why you people are obsessed with dl

This
I do a bodybuilding oriented routine and still deadlift for strength just for fun

>physically taxing
my main hinderance from aesthetics is bodyfat.

there is no reason to be alive if you can't do deadlift

deadlfits build the glutes, forearms, traps, and lats, all "aesthetic" muscle groups.

I think thick legs are aesthetic as fuck

Squats on the other hand.. Glutes and quads are so unaesathetic when big.. Better left alone

>Glutes
>unaesathetic when big

why aren't you doing track cycling user?

>you will never be a strongman/powerlifter known for your obsession with deadlifting, and then fucking die doing deadlifts

>Shitskins
>Aesthetic

>implying it is in anyway good at building traps and lats
>doesn' mention hamstrings and lumbar

kys

Based

>could no longer do deadlifts
>died
the man was true to his word

This, I live for deadlift day

Natties who train for aesthetics and don't squat and deadlift are always PAPER THIN from the side.

Deadlift day is something I always look forward to.
Once a month everyone in my gym gets together and we all max out and congratulate each others progress.
There's a white board with all of the maxes sitting in the PT office and everything.

>maxing out once a month
Slow down playboy

I mean roids help a ton to look ok I'll that op

plehboi*

Been doing it for 3 or 4 years now and haven't snapped my shit up yet.

OP's point is agreeable, up to a point.

I do deadlifts, but focus on moving the weight with my abs. More of a psuedo- hip-thrust. Reallly helps with aesthetics

who is that shredded home boy?

All strongmen are fat as fu-

RIP my dude

that bike placement so close to a doorway bothers me so much....I'd be one bump into it/spaz away from a mangled bike and a need for a new wall

this.

jason blaha does deadlifts.

do you want to look like jason blaha?

this sounds awesome
but my gym has people who get pissy when i work-in to OHP what they are squating

Deadlifts will get you a thick core, big traps, big upper back, thick glutes, and thick hams.

Yeah

so does Eric. what's your point?

Yeah for some reasons it's seems to be the most relevant for life. Like flipping over some asshole's car.

...

>added 180 pounds to my deadlift
>by doing this you can now add a lot of weight to back hypertrophy lifts
>Gee I wonder if that guy who can now row 3 plates for high reps will have a better back than the dweeb whos been doing 120 pound lat pulldowns for 2 years straight

Took me 3 years to realize this. I was doing a bodybuilding PPL, but with babby weight. Got nowhere. I'm on only week 3 of SS and my traps and arms, ironically, are blowing up. My wife is constantly commenting on how muscular I look and the chest and sleeves of my t-shirts are tighter than ever, which is what I craved but never got doing bitch weight splits.

I'll go back to a split when my strength is up. I don't know why more people don't start with strength and put on some mass that way.

Fuck Deadlifts I never do them. They're awkward as fuck and you can hurt your back doing them. I can squat around 450-500 lbs right now so I don't really need them anyways.

the holy trininty + some for looking good
deadlifts
squats
ohp
bench
incline bench
close grip bench
wide grip pull up
chin up
rows

Well technically you're talking shit about how he talks shit about things other people do, which is to say you're talking shit about things other people do, meaning there is a 99% you're ugly

Because the average idiot thinks that you can accidently get too big so they want to get straight to the point (getting a good body) and do a split or even more likely don't know anything about weightlifting, get advice from some retard during new years, and never have the chance to know any better

You've probably been the only one stupid enough to think deadlifts were necessary for aesthetics, and that guy has the creepiest little midget arms, so hardly a case in point.
