5 am deadlift

Deadlift 5 by 5

May 03, 20251 min read

Hi folks,

 

Sunday's workout is a classic strength development scheme: 5 by 5 deadlift.

 

After the general warm up, you will have time to build up to your workout weight. Use this time to wake up your body and correct movements. Feel your body and gradually load up to your workout weight. You will have a 4 min window for each heavy set. Recommend to use a belt if you are lifting very heavy, and know how to breathe probably with the belt.
