Deadlift back pain?

[K.Biz]

I did a back day on tuesday, and it was my first time doing deadlifts. i have been training for about 6 montns, doin rows and other types of back workouts, but herd great things about deads. so i tried them but do deadlifts effect the lower back to where i would be in pain as much as 3 days after? im not really in pain pain but very sore still.

if its normal for a first time deadlifter, then damn i dont think i have worked my back this well ever

definately man....lower back will be shot for days especially if it's your first time ever doing them, but you got to keep it up...deads is a must.

which is better? straight leg deads, sumo deads, or regular deads?

^^'better' for what?

[pvit486]

Well, regular deads are good for overall mass, however, straight legged deads hits the hamstrings primary. I usually split them up for back and leg day

[violator1]

overall mass, back thickness.

^^ Think about it.

Logically the exercise that you can move more weight with through a full ROM will yield a greater net overload.

Regular deads wins.

ROM is too short on Sumo's..

Overload isn't as great on SLDLs

agree, sumo is more for guys like myself trying to move more weight for contests, the sumo is the most bio-mechanicaly correct lift(shortest stroke, less involvement of the lower back )

but for BBing purposes, conventional first and than maybe 1 or 2 sets of SLDL to finish off the hamstrings, and thats all you need.

chances are if you r a first time dadelifter, your form isnt very good at all, i am sure this is probably one of the reasons you are still sore9along witht he fact that you never did the lift and ever worked your posterior chain that hard before,) my advice is simple, find someone who knows how todeadlift, who has great from, and let them work with you and critque your form.
