Dead Lift - The Best Workout

You are in a crowded training camp that is also short on equipment, so each person is allowed only one workout and has access to the gym once a week.

What do you choose? What would be your best training?

OK this may sound like a hypothetical problem, but it's not so hypothetical, it can happen in real life; you are often on a busy schedule, or on a business or holiday trip where you cannot visit the gym as often as your training schedule dictates.

I don't know about your options, but if it's my turn, I'll think for a moment, you see

I only have one day to access the gym and I have many goals to achieve:


  • I want to work with a lot of muscles, better ones.

  • I want to stimulate my anabolic hormone.

  • I want to burn a lot of calories.

Well, I know one exercise that can give me all that benefit, lift it off.


  1. The dead lift works on almost all major muscle groups, the lower back, back and abdomen.

  2. The dead lift has a strong stimulant effect on your hormones and metabolism, tests show that weight training leads to testosterone and growth hormone boost. I'll tell you later how to stimulate each.

  3. The dead lift burns more calories, the more muscle you work the more calories you burn.

Everything in all the lifts is the best training

Now that I explain my options, let's be more specific with frequency and number of numbers i.e.

Well we have one that we already agree with that is the frequency, although in our hypothetical situation it is mandatory, in fact you may choose to willingly reduce your frequency as the dead lift is highly taxed and they require a long time to recover.

Now for the second number of volume i.e. sets and reps:

The dead lift is best done with heavier weights and simple repairs


  • Choose the weight that allows you to do 6-8 reps.

  • Do 6 sets of this ascent. Increase the weight of each set in a row.

  • Take 2-3 minutes between sets.

Then I would suggest another volume for different goals, so it's warm.

Now a word on technique

Techniques are critical not only for the full benefit of training but also for safety, this is a serious training and has to do with textbook techniques


  • Legs should be shoulder width, Bar in the middle of your foot.

  • You can use alternative hand grips on your weight set.

  • Go down with your hips flexing your knees raising your chest so that your back is flat all the time.

  • Now press the floor with your feet, stick your butt, wait forward, while raising your back while straightening your knees, do not let your knees extend too early or you will put extra pressure behind your back.

  • Pull all the way to the lock.

  • Lose weight under control.

And now here is the tip I told you before

You can use a dead lift to increase both your testosterone and your growth hormone.


  • Testosterone is elevated in your weight loss conventional lift.

  • And you can kick your growth hormones into high gear with the following tricks:

Combine rigid lifting with conventional

Studies show that moderate intensity exercises are performed at higher volume and shorter rest periods stimulate GH release.


  • In this case, you should use lighter weight, which you can lift for 8 reps on your rigid dead lift.

  • Start by doing 6 reps of the deadly elevator.

  • Then without a break followed the conventional elevator for 6 more representatives.

  • Repeat 10 sets.

  • Limit your rest period to no more than 1 minute.

Now back to the camp, if anyone drops in and you are offered to take a holiday now, I don't think you would consider accepting it.
