Deadlifts and a dead back

[B.Reel]

I started doing deads this year and the gains mass/strength have been great. However, I have been increasing the weight about 10 lbs/week for months now and my back does not neccessarily hurt, it is just weak as all hell when I am done with my final set (usually a double with all I can handle). The pain/weakness usually dissipates after 48 hrs and I am good to go.

Does your lower back feel very weak or wobbly after heavy deads? Is this a sign that I am increasing weights too fast?

do you keep a tight form? flat back??

"use your legs to pull it from the floor so your back won't hurt" <--from some movie..

which is true..it should be in one swift motion..

for support...start doing good mornings and have a strong core...

the tightness you feel on your back after those is inevitable...

i can tell you that sometimes i walk around kind of funny for about 45 minutes after a dead workout because my back is pumped and tired. sometimes it is sore for a day. can you post a clip of some pulls for us to look at your form?

Fuc*ing rediculous, huh!

Back to the post... I cant get a video, but my form cannot be perfect since I just started doing them and the only coaching Ive had is what I have read on the internet and watching various videos. My for is not terrible though . . . . I hope! Anyone else get a 'weak' back, not painful, or 1-2 days after deads?
