Two Dumbbells Deadlifts 164lbers
- 2 years ago
Rest of the workout is here: https://youtu.be/JnFY2se1tEc
Haven't done these in a while and they're definitely one of my favourite Deadlifts! I did 5x110lbers, 5x2x136lbers & 2x3x164lbers. Starting with the handles over the feet makes me start a with the back flat & parallel with the ground. The forearms are in front of the knees so l have to pull quite a bit with the weights not getting any closer to my hips. Finally, near the end l can pull the weights in and out to the sides. This feels so much more productive than Deadlifting with a Trap/Hex Bar even though they WERE invented to replace Deadlifting with heavy dumbbells. It's definitely more convenient to set up & load a Trap/Hex Bar and you PAY DEARLY for that convenience with less overall activation & benefits. The extra Upper Back involvement alone makes these a worthy investment. Lots of good going on here...God Bless!!
