I remember watching this video 5 years ago in awe with the guy benching 225 for 10 on incline. Saw this today and realized I can now do the same. How time flies
@@repentandfollowjesuschrist6170 I mean he might do a few less reps, but he could still definitely rep it. It's not as egregious of a bounce as it looks
Stay home, living well lady or go to Karens and use the thigh master. So long as your but screaming like an idiot to lift unimpressive weight with shitty form, I could care less.
This happened to me as well, however, while the old lady was confronting me, the CrossFit portion of the gym started slamming with power cleans. The shock on her face was priceless, and I continued on with my “controlled” lifts.
I've seen a guy scream as if he was giving birth to an oversized baby. He was on a leg extension machine lmao. After we was done there was sweat dripping off the seat. Seeing as guys don't actually give birth or have orgasms, I still don't know where all the water liquid came from.
Lol! I thot they were the quietest drops I’ve heard, myself. I go to LA Fitness and I’m beginning to see more and more young guys, with the same build, doing deadlifts. And most of the younger guys I SWEAR are dropping it loudly on purpose. But can I ask an honest question...? What is the PURPOSE of doing those extremely heavy deadlifts? I mean, if ur a bodybuilder, I get it. But most of these guys are built like the kid in this video. Some even Skinnier! And they’re NOT getting any bigger. So why do them? 🤷🏻♂️
da Mana Lifting heavy and maxing out before you can complete a full set is supposed to build more muscle and at a faster rate than lifting lighter and being able to finish each set, but it’s all about form and going too heavy too fast and hurting yourself is stupid and won’t do anything either. I swear people where I go literally fling the weight across half the gym though lmao the woman in this video would have a mental breakdown there
by no means is this a family fitness and older person hangout gym. there are some serious dudes in here. I am 6 foot 185 and feel like a stick in this gym
I was going to come in an roast you for slamming weights because I have this one guy at my gym who fucking does "dead drops" but you were fine man keep it up! 👌
The douchebags at my gym are grunting at max volume and throwing the weights trying to attract as much attention as possible, this is as kind as anyone could be.
You will snap your shit up trying to lower 80% max or more to the ground slowly. As long as you're not dropping from lockout, I don't think anyone should complain. As far as grunting, I'm never heard of it preventing injury or being necessary to move weight so I'm not a fan.
The reason she even came over is that she noticed that by his efforts to lift quiet he already exuded to others that he apologises for his own existence. Women notice that immediately.
Great form on the squat and d/l ! That is rare to see. Your d/l was actually quieter than the guy's eccentric phase on the incline behind you. Save for his first rep that weight was crashing down like sack of crete down a mine shaft. Great job!
@@andreiivanov5969 Dropping the bar with a bunch of weight on it from lockout will damage the barbell and could cause a permanent bend but if your gym just has regular wood flooring instead of deadlifting platforms it's gonna damage the floor too if you drop it instead of controlling the negative
@@Wyatt_Riley Disagree about dropping the bar causing a bend. Unless you're doing rack pulls or something, the weights hit the floor, not the bar, so there's no bending force on the bar at all once you let go. More likely to bend your bar by deadlifting heavy in the first place. Dropping a deadlift onto wood will 100% damage the floor though lol.
are his shoulders fine too? I thought you have to keep your shoulders back and under tenstion and your shoulder blades together. I am an amateur tho so it might be wrong information
Hell, if somebody ever goes after me in the gym for being loud that will be the line I use. Luckily the gym I go to is actully full of pretty chill people, so it never happens.
@@TheStraightestWhitest I personally belive the best way to deal with negative people is In a nice way. I find it diffuses the situation far faster than anything else. However that does not mean I would kiss up to them, stand your ground, stay calm, nicely say, "I'm sorry but that would not be possible" and carry on. If they still act rude afterwards then getting more blunt can work.
@@AnOceanOnFire I get what you're saying, but I think you'd be too nice by saying "I'm sorry". Have you wronged them? No? Then don't apologise. And diffusing a situation with a coward like that is easy. Tell them to take a seat. They might sputter a bit, but they won't contest it. A braver man or woman wouldn't be insecure enough to pester you in the first place.
@@TheStraightestWhitest Look up Jocko WIllink, he is a master of dealing with people, and that's where I get my principles from. His advice is what I use, he's an ex Navy Seal Officer, and one hell of a guy.
Exactly. There are other videos where the guys drop the weight actually making noise (wich is totally fine, and doesn't make the fact of someone wanting to kick you out for that less stupid) but this guy was controling the weight perfectly all the way through the rep. You can't get more quiet on a deadlift
Fuck people like that, the gym is to go all out, if you're wanting a peacefull, pictures for Instagram gym go to planet fitness(not that i dont take pictures cause i do)
@@fifagod4238 depends on the "all out"... Some people throw away weights like popcorn. Which is really unnecessary and happens mostly when they try to lift weights they cant handle. This guy tho had almost too much control. Srsly a beast.
I miss deadlifting, I wasn't crazy lifting or anything but it was something I found joy doing. I used to be intimidated with squatting and Deadlifts, so much movement is probably what factored in as well.
what an awesome guy telling her to fuck off in the nicest way possible in a gym. Also deadlifts singles IS THE WAY TO GO. I used to train with a powerlifting champion. That was his mantra when it came to deadlifts.
BurningSnoMan i used to deadlift in highschool cuz we had weightlifting as a p.e class and everyone was loud but we didnt care cuz we knew we was doing that shit good
What was she expecting?? He wasn’t grunting, shouting or even smashing the weights. He was tapping them at worst, and if your plates are metal, then that’s the gym equivalent of whispering.
@@florisdevin1557 It does matter. You want a *controlled* decent because slamming into your chest at such a high weight will give you fractured sternum, but it's your body do with what you want.
I had the same problem. I was just at my gym, which was Planet Fitness. I was doing the elliptical. I was listening to some fun 60s music. I was singing along. Then in the middle, some man interrupts me. He tells me to stop singing. The sound is annoying. I felt immense remorse afterward. I could bearely finished afterward, because I was so depressed. I feel like I was a bad person. This video does help me feel better. The situation is even worse. Wieghtlifting hardly makes any sound at all. Yet the guy still got critisized. That is horrible. It is nice to know that I am not alone. People need to really think about what a gym environment is like. People are moving around. People are working with heavy stuff. There are machines would be running. People wouldn't just grunt. They would huff and puff. So in this environment, some background noise is expected. In my gym the intercom plays music on top of that. People also talk. So that is even more sounds. I didn't think singing would make a difference. It isn't that different if I talked to someone during the whole workout. If people don't like a gym for being too loud, that seems more of a problem with them and not the library. Singing is one thing. However the little sounds made during wirghtlifting is so insignificant. If someone complains about that then they are being too thin skinned. I did feel confused. I thought of the gym having to be as quiet as a library. The video actuallymentioned that. A library is not a reasonable standard for a gym. If someone had a problem, they ought to put on thier headphones or leave.
tony ny as much as you should "control the weight" you should never softly and carefully put down anything 225 and up. The last portion of the deadlift is the one where you can risk a lot of shoulder injuries by leaning too far forward. Minimise sound, but bigger weight bigger noise.
chriswb7 yeah at a gym called 4 seasons i was deadlifting close to 500lbs and a staff member came up to me and said can you not be so loud because I was letting out a little yell so I did it again and just screamed till my face turned red and slammed the bar down she turned the corner so fast and started yelling at me let's just say that every one was pissed and I never went there again except the next day to call them all pussies
I actually like noise in the gym... Music, people lifting, talking, Etc... Bc I feel more comfortable and It feels nice to know others are working hard just like you to work out.
You know why they dont feel embarrased? Because no one has ever checked them or publicly called them out on their shit. People just say ok and let it be which just reinforces their feelings of entitlement and thinking they are right. Untill people stop being weak and actually fight back and these assholes they will continue.
I wonder that myself but I guess it's the same kind of mentality that allows people to go into a business and be an asshole to employee's without feeling in the wrong.
I'd rather people deadlift loudly than attempt to deadlift quietly and hurt themselves in the process. On a side note, I'm glad you are doing singles instead of multiple reps. Putting your health before your pride may not be popular, but it's rewarding.
I warm up and work my way down on a few heavy singles then rep out something lighter for reps to finish off works well for me I've found I used to suck at deadlifting too but I've really nailed down the technique in 2020 so I am hoping 2021 is the year I actually get really good at it.
@@connergrant7232 In terms of gym PRs brilliant yeah. Managed to hit a 225kg deadlift, 100kg OHP, 140kg bench and a 170kg squat. Hopefully you've had a good year too.
@@gravemind6536 If you want to improve your lifts fast. become a member of a powerlifting gym. At least here in norway, you get free coaching ect if you do so. And everyone is chatting shit between sets, but the hype is real when you lift. I went for sbd pr this wednesday, and we were a total of 10 people in the gym, 4 of them i went with. the second the 6 other people heard my grunt, they stopped what they were doing to turn around and hype me up. That is the spirit of powerlifting, and it is the best gym community i have been in
Beast mode on the incline 👍people say the new generations don't have manners but as you see who was calm and who was ignorant. Btw great form, I have become increasingly inspired by all types of people interested in fitness and growth
I like the way you rep deadlifts, a lot of people swear by reps for EVERYTHING and it doesn't always work that way. Work out in the way that feels good to you
Here's what you say: "Sure thing! Sadly I dont know how. Would you mind showing me how to set this 455 lb bar quietly?" Anyone who can pull it wont give a shit if you're making noise. If they cant, you say "well if you cant even pull it then wouldn't understand how hard setting it down gently 10 times." Then you continue your lift
I work in a gym where you have any type of lifters. From senior citizens to competitive powerlifters and bodybuilders. One day one of the powerlifters was there pretty early, when mostly old people where there. They didn't like him deadlifting and told him to stop. He went to our gym manager who was on duty that morning. Young and energetic woman, not a powerlifter herself but open to any type of fitness or strength sports. He told her about it and politely asked her if there was a problem with him doing rather loud deadlifts. She looked him straight in the eye and told him to hit the floor even louder. 😆
Barbells are supposed to be ‘loud’ or noisy. This is because of the design of the bars. There’s gap between the bar’s sleeves and the plates (with metal coating in the hole), apart from this, the sleeves are also movable objects (as they need to spin, which is crucial design in olympic weightlifting), with plates loaded on the bar, it will always make sounds no matter how softly you put them on the floor. If anyone finds it noisy or annoying, go to a ‘gym’ that is not equipped with olympic bars. However they are very standard and fundamental gym equipment.
Dude that was the quietest deadlifts you could have done. The way she said it to you too was unbelievably rude, didn't even try to talk to you like a person. Good on the guy next to you for helping out
I was wondering that how can you get so low and back vertical. Is it because of your leverages or does the bar have to travel around your knees a bit. It seems quite a quad-dominant way to do that, which is not necessarily bad thing. BTW... I love the sound of deadlift in the morning.
