Deadlifts don't really belong in a purely bodybuilding workout so that's why people keep asking and asking where to fit it in.
Mostly targets outer quads, hamstrings, glutes, erector spinae, traps,...

Stretching reduces strength temporarily.
"Tight" muscles will resist weight where as a stretched muscle will not as much.
So you'd want to stretch before a deadlift to increase flexibility and then...

Use the chest supported row machines and also can do one arm DB rows on a bench using your free hand to support your body.
I reckon you could also place a bench in front of a cable machine and row...

Train your wheels, stand above the rest.
Most young people think that training legs is to go through excruciating pain for 50 sets and leave the gym on crutches.
No wonder they spend their precious...

So if you are doing squats for the broad strength pattern and overall mass and strength then the answer is yes, trap bar deadlifts work a lot of muscles at the same time and are a complete...

Why the hell not.
Back in the day (like 20 years back) I picked up some DBs and all I did was side laterals for some time.
My side delts just grew and remain my best bodypart to this day.
Any...

After the 4 week cycle you add 10 pounds.
So if your 1RM for the deadlift is 225 pounds you start off with 90% of that as your 1RM.
Then you do the calculations of the percentages based on that....

Knees buckling in and hips shooting up are signs of lack of tightness at the start and weakness in the legs.
Also your feet are too far apart.
Maximum power is generated with feet position at...

Cardio has too many health benefits to ignore.
It will help with your metabolism, it will slow your resting hert rate, it will increase your respiratory capacity, it will improve blood flow.
And...

You can do both.
You can do half ROM and gradually increase the ROM.
Are you saying it's not going to work or it's going to hold your progress back and based on what?

I quit squats because of my complete inability to hold a straight back even to parallel no matter what.
Thankfully I can manage deads just fine so I don't really mind not squatting.
I tried leg...

Exactly this.
At the end of the deadlift workout, if you still feel your grip hasn't given it's all because at one point you switched to using straps, just hold the bar is all, can't get simpler...

Yes and,like I said, there's nothing wrong with using straps AFTER your grip has failed.
There's not a chance in hell your deadlift grip won't get stronger like that.
But when you lift every week...

You can try a hook grip but I doubt it will work for you, small hands and hook grip don't mix very well.
I also don't think anyone should bother with learning a hook grip unless they compete.
Also...

Very much depends.
For example 5x5 can be a few things.
It can be 5 sets with strictly 5 reps and gradual weight progression from one set to the next.
This tries to be a little bit of everything....

Yes, but it's not always a good strategy.
For example if you can't do a pull up but can do half reps then that's a way to get stronger till you manage the full ROM.
But on an exercise where you can...

Not necessarily.
I went 3 full years on just 6 exercises, squats, deads, BP, rows, pulldowns and shoulder presses.
And if at any point you get bored you can always switch up.
At the end of the day...

What's wrong with doing push ups to get a nice upper body?
And doing shoulder DB presses with modest weight would wreck your shoulders?
Push ups won't create shoulder problems, if anything they...

Have you,or anyone else in this thread, not been "guilty" of ego-lifting before, like ever?
No one is immune to having an accident.
There's a stray bullet with our name on it, you can be certain of...
