They are primarily nothing...what they work depends on how you do them, as there are many different styles of deadlifts. Off the ground in a full squat position is going to have more leg involvement, where as stiff legged with minimal leg bend will target your lower back throughout the range of motion.

Just see what muscles give you DOMS I guess, then you'll know what your deadlifts are "primarily" working lol.

Well my deadlifts I did yesterday have certainly hit my lower back and gluts

[Trozzle]

Do you feel it in your lower back more to each side directly above the glutes, or more specifically centralised?

[Mitcho_7]

It's right in the lumbar erectors muscle bellies on each side and the tops of my gluts.

Tis' a good feeling!

[TM7GTR]

I thought the main muscle being worked in the lumbar region of your spine/back during a deadlift was erector spinae?

[Mitcho_7]

What do you think the lumbar erectors are?

Erector spinae is the blanket term for the muscles that run parrallel to the spine.

There is iliocostalis lumborum, spinalis dorsi and longissimus dorsi all in the lumbar region. Deadlifts will also hit quadratic lumborum, but it's not grouped in with the "erector spinae" term.

It's just habit for me to refer to them as lumbar erectors to be slightly specific without naming them I guess...

Trying to decide if I should be getting something now to bulk up a little or just stick with it and increase my eating.

I have lost a total of 8kg over the past few months now since starting.

Currently sitting at 69kg 170cm

Oh yeah and birds got banned in the wasteland for posting porn or something.

dont know when his back

[-FIGJAM-]

brids was right, depending on how you do deads will depend greatly on what muscles are used the most and at what point.

i find normal deadlifts (where you actually hit the ground and reset every rep) to do the entire body, however if i lower the bar to near the ground without actually touching, it hits my back a thousand times more, I also find that I can do more reps this way.

sumo deads will do your arse and back more, stiff I find hits my hammys etc etc

When you make up your mind let me know, I might be keen on getting some more stuff.

News just in guys.....

The gym and supplement Discussion world came to a screaching hault today when a 69kg man questioned wether he should start bulking up a little.

One witness was quoted as saying "dafuq?"

After some investigation it was found that the 69kg man [man...lol.. yeah right - Editor] was in fact studying to become a Bosu Ball instructor and so the shocking news was not so shocking but still quite queer.

I would just increase your eating like you said. You can make a DIY weight gainer (grinded oats, PB, milk and whey) which is pretty convenient. tastes alright as well.

We should organise group buys for sups from bodybuilding.com. Not sure how much protein you can import into Aus, but things like creatine and BCAA's are fine

This thread is delivering lulz.

Yes Dan, eat a shitload more of what you're already eating (ie - healthy shit). And lift heavier.
