First rep for some reason always seems hardest. It’s not necessarily about the touch and go either, I’m not sure why but I’m sure you’ve probably experienced it yourself at some point.
@@DaSpaceJammer because in the deadlift your muscles are relaxed at the start and in squat and bench your already tensed up in the starting position. This is why it’s called deadlift . Also if he didn’t do touch and go each rep would look like the first
Oops, I think Brent forgot that crossfitters dont know how to deadlift properly…but then again neither do weightlifters…buuuuuut zach is HARDLY even that good of a weightlifter…(insert broscience video of do you even lift)
Lol 😆. There are so many videos out there explaining why sumo is not technically easier BUT just cant get any respect deadlifting sumo so starting over and doing standard
@@robschilke Even still, often something you can pull for a 10 RM moves faster than that for the first couple of reps. That's individual though and quads and leverages play a huge role in bar speed I find.
That's awesome! Every rep looked the same. I just DLed 500 for the first time a week ago. I'm hoping to add reps until I get to 5 or maybe even 10! I don't want to DL more than 500 until I look like Zach when I DL 500!
that's crazy! clearly guy knows what he is doing it and seems to be doing it well but I would think he is not bending his knees enough and going down enough for safety of his back? Either way very motivating video! this was literally my max lol
Yo my g what’s good that’s legitimately impressive as fuck yo just be careful with your left rotator cuff your shoulder seemed to be pulled forward on the left putting more strain on the muscle
Zelander - I know the bumpers and straps look cool cause you lift more but I'm getting more frustrated with this setup from social media influencers. Yes it applies to conventional too.
@@war_josh1550 this whole touch and go deadlift with straps is just not my type of lift in general. I'd love to see 455 for 5 without straps dead off the floor. I respect that lift way more than this tbh. Social media influencer set up. Regardless if it is conventional or not, the bar is sitting deep in the fingertips and this is pretty much an RDL. I love Zack - I personally hate this lift. That's just my opinion and everyone is entitled to their own.
@@MrVigilanti I agree that if it was deadstop it would be more impressive. But I don't agree with doing it strapless being more impressive. Doing hook for more than 5 reps is pointless in my opinion. You'll just tear up your hands. I'm sure Zack could hold onto a max deadlift hookgrip, but when you hook for this many reps it's be more about pain tolerance and your thumbs ripping open
