could someone link a video showing proper form on SLDL's...

Most people end up doing RDL (Romanian Dead Lifts) which is pretty much basically the same except you really should try to push the rear back when doing RDL and trying to keep the hips in place on the SLDL.

Here's the RDL

thanks man

Thought Id give a shout to this post if you didnt see it in my log, but the Havoc I was runnin was the reason for this soreness. The pumps were so intense the pain actually radiated. 3 weeks off now and feeling fucking awesome.

I just started to add deadlifts in my back workout 2 months ago. I use strict form at light to moderate wieght and my back stays pretty sore for over a day. I t is normal to be sore from compound movements especially when you add them into your workout and you are natural. The Havoc could be adding pain to your back also.

seems like a little bit of lower back soreness is common when first DL's are first inserted into a work out.... i dont' get them as much anymore...prolly form is just getting better or im just getting use to it i don't know

Man, the first time I pulled heavy I could barely get out of bed the next day. Every muscle in my body was sore beyond belief.

what do you think of this guys range of motion for rack deads. I've always gone from floor up, but I rely alot on legs. I'm thinking of switching to rack deads.

You still suffering from DOMS in the back?

I'm wondering what your volume looks like and what else if anything are you doing for lower back?

Each person is different and Jason knows his shit but RDL's don't work for me, they have a tendency of really torquing my back in a bad way.
