Heavy deadlift negatives okay?
Guess I'll post this over here. I put this under powerlifting, but I'm interested in replies from anyone. Just wondering what peoples' thoughts are on controlling the negative when repping heavy weight with deads?
Currently I work out in my apt using a squat rack. I lower the weight slowly during the negative to avoid making too much noise and freaking out the neighbors. I haven't had any injuries doing it this way for a while ( knock on wood ), but I was wondering how taboo it really is to perform a slow, heavy negative with the lift? Is this a good way to fvck up your back in the long run? Seems like there are differing opinions on this.
