anyone ever drop-set deads?

[gareth1978]

I like to use beyond failure techniques whilst on cycle, but have never tried these on squats or deadlifts - for various reasons. Deadlifts are my favourite back exercise and I have a pretty heavy cycle coming up so I thought I might try a few drop-sets (strip sets? whatever you call them)... anyone else tried this with deads?

Sounds like a great way to drop off a meal onto the floor.

IMO, it would be hard to keep form, thus making injury a possible outcome.

sounds like a good way to tear a bicep or shit out your spine

form goes out the door, so I would say no

I agree. These lift should be preformed as heavy as possible, with perfect, or very close to perfect form. If you have any energy left to do a dropset, your not doing them hard enough imo! KISS on the big three lifts.

One of the worst ideas I have heard in a long time. And I frequent 10 boards on a daily basis

you could try doing deads till form breaks then go right into something like pullthroughs or hypers. it would be alot safer.
