Deadlifts for ME squat?

[Adrock]

For all you WSB experts, have any of you tried deadlifts for ME squat or have any idea if this would work for ME squat?

Yup, you can do it, but i beleive they don't use the DL for the ME exercise very often, I think one of the articles stated they only use it for like 10-15% of the time. I think there's several reasons for this, one because its a very taxing exercise and secondly because its a weird lift, I would take a look at GoldenBear's thread not too far down for more info on the DL.
