Your supposed to use your back that much? that seems like it would be easy to throw your back out.

So what's with this "arched back" I keep reading about when looking at deadlift stuff? Isn't your back supposed to be straight, and you're bending at the hips?

I think you're thinking of 'rounded back' rather than 'arched back.' Yes, I bend at the hips.

It's a posterior chain movement-lower back, hamstrings, glutes...plus a bunch of other helpers.

Very interesting, so this is mainly ur legs and lower back doing the work?

 

[liecheatsteal]

holy crap dude. thats a ton of weight. impressive. lol yeah the bare feet, those extra centimeters can mean the difference between a lockout or not. anyway good work, keep it up bro.

Bend you legs at all or keep them locked with your back straight and youll be fine?

Legs bent, back arched...pull back and that's the deadlift. I don't do stiff or straight leg deadlift
