Who is a good dead lifter that I could follow ?

[NorthStrong]

Here's the thing, perfect form for him, is not perfect form for someone else.

Exactly. And I think the reason for his injuries was more due to him training in a less than brilliant manner, to say the least. However, fortunately he has acknowledged this and will be improving via submax training according to a recent video of his. This is huge for him, since just like he said, powerlifting isn't even necessarily about strength at a given time, so much as it is about staying as injury free as possible over a long period of time to allow the gains to accumulate without interruption.

David Hansen is built like a monkey and has some massive pulls under his belt.

[Huskarl]

Like ppl said. Gunham, Mike t, Brad

George leeman, mark bell, dan green, Brandon lilly etc

Mark bell? Yea.. okey whatever.

[grahulino]

Pete Rubish, Layne Norton

[TheRealDeal930]

I'm not stating that they have the best form, but the guys I watch the most are George Leeman, Pete Rubish, and Chris Hickson.

[eltigar]

I think the paint fumes got me good today. I thought op wanted some deceased weightlifters .

Good for him.

Mark Bell is a beast though, his form is legit most if not all of the time.

One good way to learn more about deadlift technique is to watch lifters with similar leverages as you, whether they're male or female. David Hansen and Vince Anello are amazing deadlifters, but it will be very hard to copy their respective styles without their unique leverages.

Exactly this. I am never ever going to be able to pull like Lamar Gant because my arms are 1/4 as long as his.

and you don't have severe scoliosis.

A problem with just browsing around videos trying to find someone with your leverages is that it can be very hard to tell who has similar leverages on video. Angles can be deceiving. This is why going to see someone local to you that is experienced is the best thing to do. Next if that is not available is to post a video using sufficient weight and from multiple angles and have some experienced people review the vid.

George leeman, pete rubish, chris hickson

Got to me inspired.

Yeah indeed picture perfect form all 3 of them. Would really love to have a deadlifting teacher like Hickson

I see what you did there.

[HamburgerTrain]

Heldesky's is strong but not pretty

Sorry, I will focus more on making sure you want to have sex with me when I do my deadlifts.

Vids or it didn't happen.

[tom11]

On a related note, since many of you mentioned Chris Hickson and Peter Rubbish, here is an EPIC VIDEO where the Lilliebridge brothers and their dad have a deadlift session with Hickson and Rubbish. Note: check out how Hickson pulls his 405, he almost cleaned it lol.

[Claymore1]

you must be joking?

Not at all, he never breaks form even with 906.

[Claymore1]

Because he yanks the bar up in a way that would destroy average people's biceps and back?

.

The "Yank" your referring to is the explosiveness.

[breathinglife]

Speaking of yanking on the bar....

[davehaggett]

I like to think my sumo form is pretty dialed in.. if that's how you pull I can answer any questions you may have

My god Koklyaev is an animal. The vid of his total is nuts. The bar was flying on all of his attempts.

Insane weights!

Um ya I think you might be onto something. Nice pulls!

[babyslayer]

my form is the reason I don't get hurt even more than I do.

I get hurt for the same reason ive always gotten hurt, I make very fast progress and have a very hard time holding my self back and listening to my body.

iam 22, I just got out of the mode where you can train like a jackass and still survive (being a kid/young man) my methods didn't evolve as fast as my strength did because I have had to learn everything for my self basically... now I seek out the help of other lifters who are smarter and because of that Iam doing slightly better, but I still need to improve on my ability to coach my self and that just takes time and knowledge that I haven't had yet..

iam smart with some things, and a jackass with other things, but deadlift form is something iam just fine at.

[babyslayer]

mr coan has got the right idea on form aswell I believe lol

That's right, but I wouldn't show it to a beginner to teach him deadlifting if we're talking about following someone's videos to learn the deadlift.
