I did these in the gym the other day rather than actual deadlifts and I kinda like them. However, i am not quite sure about my form...here's how I do them:
I start a couple of inches below my kneecap and then extend up...seems simple enough, right? Well I feel as though I'm about to break in half and I'm not sure if I should feel it more in my lower back or in my hamstrings or both. Any thoughts?
Oh, I last time I did regular deads for 3 sets of 8 at 185, 245, 225. This time I did the smith deads for 225, 315, 315 x 8. I felt hella strong, too bad I was only moving the weight a few inches...lol.
