Deadlifts.....

[Canes4Ever]

I have been PL style training for about 2 ½ to 3 years now. Deadlifting has become part of my back routine.

As I am going to re-focus my training to HST (hypertophy specific training) or as it used to be called, bodybuilding, would it be advisable to eliminate the regular deadlifts ? Can I still do SLDL's on my leg days?

Thanks in advance for any help and replies.

I would keep doing the deadlift as it is one of the bulk builders.As to SLDL i would do them on leg days as they work the hams more.

Thanks for the advise, I wasn't sure if most bodybuilders use deadlifts or not in their routines. I can say from seeing them at my gym, I don't see anyone else but myself doing them. I was starting to think I was doing something wrong.

Love em Nothing like the feeling of hoisting a bar up off the floor and it feels as if your feet will sink through the floor as you lift.

That feeling can't be matched, not even with sex !

I do deads also. I think I'm finally getting the hang of it, it took a while. Not many other people in my gym do them. I do them on shoulder day. I hope it helps my traps, they really need it
