Why Don’t We Deadlift More from Michael Winchester.  Mike is an Outlaw coach, abortion and he further explains why he doesn’t deadlift as much as he used to.  WARNING! Science and math ahead!  While I can’t really speak to the math, ampoule I can speak to the anecdotal nature of lots of deadlifting.  I used to deadlift ALOT, at least once a week heavy (for me anyway – well over 300 once a week).  Within the last year, we did an 8 week build on the 5 rep max for the deadlift.  As the numbers got high, we noticed people getting tight in the low back, and sometimes having to throw in the towel, or even shutting down for a couple of days.  It appears the Olympic Lifts provide many of the good things deadlifting provide, without loading the spine and central nervous system to the high degree the heavy deads do.
 
That’s not to say we don’t/won’t deadlift.  We just aren’t going to focus on it in the strength portions.  All that being said, if you’re considering competing, you need to know what lots of deadlifting “feels” like.  Don’t worry, we got your “back.”
