Working Out....

[CreamLord]

Day 1: Chest/Triceps
Day 2: Back/Biceps
Day 3: Leg/Shoulders (if you can, that'll be a big day lol)

I'll try this out

[Molzie]

I only use them for DL and narrow grip pull down.

I once saw a guy strap in on his bench press. On a smith machine. Lol

Now that my gym has moved down the road (3m35 walk instead of 1m07s walk) it has a new area with functional stuff. Kettlebells, TRX setup, gymnastic rings, battle ropes.

I'm currently sitting at 101KG so the body weight stuff really kills me, I really wanna have a go trying tricep dips on the gymnastic rings but I need to get a bit stronger first I reckon. My gym is good actually, I need to use more of the stuff they have like a draggy thing that looks like it would be a good back work out, or front, depending which way you're facing.

is dead lift push or pull m8? IYO

Pull

[nobody]

Yeah must be, but something that helped me lift heavier was to imagine I was pushing my feet through the ground as opposed to pulling the bar up, weird brain.

Neither - it's primarily a quads exercise, so I do it on legs/lower days.

[NinjaEdit]

(beaten)

Push/pull may be only appropriate for arms, ie vertical/horizontal push/pull, four in total.

Do you mean glutes or hams?

Do you dl and squat on the same day?

I mean quads.

IMO deadlifts hit your quads, hamstrings, glutes, spinal erectors, abs, traps, and upper lats, in that order of intensity.

Do you dl and squat on the same day?

No, I split them over legs and lower days to give some variety.

[nobody]

They only do my abs when I activate them (like my almonds)

[Molzie]

No way man. You're pushing thru your heels so your glutes are taking the majority of the strain from the initial lift. ive never had sore quads from dl

[nobody]

[NinjaEdit]

Both your hip and your knee are being extended, so both glutes/hams and quads are worked.

[Molzie]

Deadlifts are viewed primarily as a back movement; as this is where the main stress is throughout the movement. Indeed, the lower back (the erectors) will become big and strong after a surprisingly short period, with the deadlift. The latissimus dorsi and associated muscles are also worked to a large degree - especially at the top of the movement.

Muscles involved

The deadlift is a compound movement that works a variety of muscles groups:

The grip strength (finger flexors) and the lower back (erector spinae) work isometrically to keep the bar held in the hands and to keep the spine from rounding.
The gluteus maximus and hamstrings work to extend the hip joint.
The quadriceps work to extend the knee joint.
The adductor magnus works to stabilize the legs.

The deadlift activates a large number of individual muscles:

Torso
Front
Abdomen
Rectus abdominis (under aponeurosis)
Abdominal external oblique muscle
Abdominal internal oblique muscle
Back
Iliocostalis
Intertransversarii laterales lumborum
Latissimus dorsi
Levator scapulae
Longissimus
Quadratus lumborum
Rhomboideus major
Serratus posterior superior
Serratus posterior inferior
Splenius cervicis
Teres Major
Trapezius muscle
Legs
Quadriceps
Rectus femoris
Vastus lateralis
Vastus intermedius
Vastus medialis
Hamstrings
Biceps femoris muscle
long head
short head
Semitendinosus
Semimembranosus
Hips
Gluteal muscles
Gluteus maximus
Gluteus minimus
Piriformis
Superior gemellus
Forearms
Flexor digitorum profundus

[CreamLord]

I'd say your quads are used but to a lesser extent

On a semi related note I think my form for barbell rows is fucked because I can't really do them, like at my mates I was able to do 30-35 or something like that but then at gym I can't do more than 25 and even that's kinda hard. Might just practice on 15 or something till I get it right

Are you keeping your shoulderblades together?
