The deadlift should begin with the thighs almost parallel to the floor, and the bar should be in front of the shins, not dragging against the shins, according to that illustration.
I think these people don't know what they are talking about.---Likes front squats more than back squats crew---
---Likes overhead press more than bench press crew---
---Can't argue with deadlifts crew---

You are missing the point. The bar is SUPPOSED to drag up the shins to ensure a strict vertical bar path. The thighs are not supposed to be parallel to the ground to start the pull, the hips are supposed to be up. The instruction given in the caption is incorrect. I dont care if its kansas state or some university, the information is wrong.

A lot of powerlifting competitions actually require high socks that cover the shins for deadlifting so that competitors do not bleed on the bar. They do this because, well, every serious deadlifter that knows what they are doing drags the bar up the shins.
And they have been doing this since waaay before 2004.---Likes front squats more than back squats crew---

Good stuff. Repped
Sickening.
Fear leads to hate, hate leads to anger, anger leads to suffering... In one final act of self defense, the great mother earth must purge herself and if that means the death of 3 billion people... So be it. If we choose war over peace, If we choose fear over logic, If we choose to be led into war and not lead ourselves to the promise land, then we deserve hell on earth.
