Deadlift Question

[RH08]

I heard various things from people but I was wondering if you should keep your Shoulder blade together and squeezed through the whole motion. I personally don't and feel better without doing it. I'd just like to hear the thoughts of other more experienced people.

It doesn't really matter.


Look at the PLers pulling world record #'s they don't have there shoulders pinched. Its your lower back you gotta worry about, keep that from rounding and you'll be fine.

I've also heard, I don't remember where but when your done with the pull and you lean back to get that squeeze of your lower back is worse then rounding it out completely.
