I did my first deadlift today, how was it? Before you save it

try to do it with your hips lower. As it stands your hips are actually higher than your shoulders, which is very bad.

If this is not feasible, then you might legitimately just have really short arms and really long back/legs, in which case converting to rack pulls and/or sumo is your best and safest bet, regardless of what memelords say.

Please give me your:

> height
> arm length
> torso (hip to shoulder) length
> femur (hip to knee) length
> knee-to-heel length

I will plug them into a neat mechanical simulator I found online that optimizes the angles and figures out roughly what your best form should look like, and report back.

Rounded your back

Why would you do that much weight on your first time? Use just the bar until you figure out the basic movement. Form was bad, chest wasnt out, scapula wasnt retracted, bar didnt stick to your legs but rather was too far forward

Your mom has good taste in motivational art.

Whats her number?

Stop doing stifflegged diddlys.

Why the fuck are you deadlifting in your bedroom

>>41978093
there is no way his body type prevents him from getting into the right position.
OP just start with ur hips lower, I recommend watching rippetoe's deadlift video.
Also push with legs and use your ass to lock it out, dont lift with your back, just keep your back straight while doing this and dont forget to brace your core.

What software did you use for editing that face in and making the webm?

>>41978119
I wake up and deadlift right away. Wakes me up.

>>41978093
Link to the simulator?

Keep your back straight and start lower as the other anons have said. Perfect your form. We're all gonna make it. And I hope your bedroom is not upstairs while you are Deadlifting. Bad idea

First part until you get to your knees is like a squat then once you're there hump forward. These are the cues I use when lifting maybe it'll help you. Btw your lift sucked

>>41978122
It is absolutely possible that proportions prohibit somebody from being able to squat or deadlift properly.

It's funny how spergs on this site screech "LOL PHYSICS ARE REAL!" when it comes to CICO, but suddenly that's not true when it comes to lifting form. I guess that's because it requires trigonometry and physics to figure out leverages but only addition/subtraction to figure out calories.

>>41978136
Squats yes, deadlift no. Even with squats you can usually do highbar or lowbar based on what works for you.

>>41978055

You see the weirdest shit on 4chan.

Is that abnormal or something?

watch a starting strength deadlift set-up video

I watched rippetoe's tutorials.

>>41978111
underrated

>>41978176
>Is that abnormal or something?
Yes. Most normal people don't want to damage their flooring. Also your sweat will make it slippery leading to more accidents. There's a reason why gyms are done over concrete or rubber mats.

>>41978209
This, OP. If you insist on lifting weights in your room at the very least buy a big thick rubber mat. You'll piss off your mom if she starts seeing holes, chips, and scuff marks in the room she's letting you live in

>>41978143
For what reason could a person not have an extremely short set of arms and extremely long legs/torso to where they could not safely deadlift conventional?

Some people have the praised "monkey build" for deadlifting, long arms and short everything else, why could the reverse not be true?

>>41978156
i do

>>41978055
1. get in position, shins about 1 inch from the bar
2. keep legs perfectly straight, hips up and drop hands down onto the bar
3. bend knees until shins touch bar, puff chest up, pull slack out of the bar
4. take a deep breath, hold it in and lift

Since we're critiquing form, can y'all tell me about mine too?

At least put it unlisted baby

Yeah you're abnormal OP

Never gonna make it


jk just go to a real gym you bitch

>>41978388
I did this, but I was assuming that the hips must be aligned with the shoulders for a parallel back. Thanks anon.

>>41978397

>jk just go to a real gym you bitch
This. You don't even come close to the amount of out-of-shape I normally see at the gym. Why so self conscious

>>41978464
not op but why would you pay for a gym when you can just buy the weights for $100-200 on craigslist and lift at home

>>41978209
I deadlifted in my bedroom for years and was just fine. Just don't drop the weights

OP here, can't believe it took this long for this type of post

>>41978506
spoopy

Like practically all deadlift noobs you are badly stretched thus your lower back isn't straight.

Begin doing Romanian Deadlifts until you are stretched enough.

Go look up 5-step deadlift on Alan Thrall's YouTube channel. It'll show you how to PROPERLY deadlift. No amount of comments will do anything. Better to see it in action.

Also. Your lift was awful.

how did you export the file? every time I make a webm, 4chan doesn't accept it, and they're also a bit too large

Hold up so I see alan thrall do this. Do I just make sure that my hips aren't higher than my shoulders?

>>41978704
Well TLDR, the forces inside your spine are much higher if you do it that way. It's your back

>>41978695
Export as mp4 and use ffmpeg or this:

If you're stuck just post here and I'll help.

>>41978055
butt wink into hyperextension is always bad. work your hip and ham flexibility, and your ham+glute strength.
i'd suggest starting with stiff legs and lunges, step ups, or barbell hip thrusts as well as working your core 4-6x a week. for abs, imo ab wheels and hanging leg raises are the best. planks are good, especially if even easy ab wheel variants are hard to do without bending your low back, but static contractions imo don't carry over as well as moves that mimic deads/squats by having ab loading with a hip hinge.

>>41978506
I don't get it

>>41978055
Hips should be lower. You're not using any leg drive whatsoever, what you're doing is basically a stiff-legged deadlift. A good tip for the perfect deadlift starting position is to run your hands down your legs by ONLY slowly shooting your hips back, NOT bending your knees. Once your hands go low enough to reach your knees, keep the same back position but bend your knees low enough to grab the bar. This forces you to use leg drive to get the bar up instead of putting 100% of that on your lower back.

>>41979531
>>41979142
Thank you!

>>41978704
Alan Thrall also is using leg drive in that position, you're not. You need to use leg drive to get the bar up.

>>41979703
what is leg drive?

>>41978506
ehhhh

>>41978391
weak sumo fucboi

>>41978093
i dont think that is a 45 lb plate, so the bar itself is prob lower then normal as well.

>>41978055
Nice wall art. I'm guessing you were staring directly at some shit that says "Live, Laugh, Love" while you did this. Your mom is a basic bitch.

SNAP FUCKING CITY IF YOU KEEP DOING THAT

its not the worst shit I've ever seen since your lumbar is pretty straight but fuck, I'm at 6'1 and my ass gets lower than your elbow

This hurt to watch, but follow fellow anons advice in this thread and you'll be fine, they've said everything you need.

Don't get meme'd though.

>>41980861
My lower back has been hurting since that day admittedly. I'll work on it.
