Burly Decides to Pull Again...

My criticism, you F'n rocked it!

Haha. Thanks bud!

For comparison purpose- strongman from back home performing deadlift (with usual humdrum)
his technique is very poor, and compared to Burly looks like complete noob

He caved in at the top... but still a lot more weight that I could even get off the ground!

Your deadlift is clearly better, in any aspect apart of weight, but even there you deserve more credit for not biting more than you can chew.
Anyway, point that I tried to make is that very often "recreational lifters" deserve more credit than pro's.

Thanks for the kind words. I was taught "form above all, and the weight will follow" when I first started lifting. I was extremely fortunate to train with some very accomplished PLers in my teens, and watching them lift was a great example of that philosophy.

love a lot of how power lifters try to preserve taking care of yourself with proper form and consistency.

that lean back thing he does looks so bad. i could never even do that, i don't know how that works.

It's really about longevity. If you love the sport (or activity), you want to continue it as long as possible. And the longer you stay healthy and uninjured, the more you can accomplish. So you take preemptive measures. Stretching, warmups, form checks, etc.

Great lift Burly, also great advice. Wish I was as disciplined with form as I should have been when I was getting started.
