Heavy deadlifts: drop from top or controlled eccentric?

Isn't there some business that the eccentric is harder to recover from than the concentric? Elliott did a video explaining it, he said he drops his deadlifts because he found it let him get a lot more heavy deadlift volume without being hard to recover from.

I would give it a try but my gym would b& me

who the fuck cares. it's not like anyone's preparing for a powerlifting meet

I didn't drop mine and unhinged my hips too fast on the last rep. I haven't DL nor squatted for 3 months from the injury.

I just can't even fathom how anyone can think this is correct.

Don't straight up drop it, but don't lower it slowly. You shouldn't be putting effort to control it on the way down. You just need to keep your hands on it

Fuck this thread reminds me of that Ripp deadlift vid where dude asks him that question and Ripp loses his shit

Controlled is safer. I used to drop the bar but then my gym added incredibly bouncy rubber pads to the platform so if I dropped the bar it'd bounce out of alignment and I'd need to set up all over again.

This article has good section on it - ctrl f "Lowering Under Control"

and convinced me that maybe the change at my gym was in my best interest.

Heavy sets: controlled drop
Volume/warmup sets: slow concentric

Jow Forums doesn't understand anything about weightlifting, as usual.

My weightlifting coach told me to drop the weight. He told me lowering the weight can cause back inury and you should just drop the weight. Anyways, I use rubber weights, so when I drop the bar, I am not damaging the floor like metal weights can. Also, the weightlifting racks have a little platform made underneath them, that is made out of rubber, so I could still probably drop metal weights and not damage the rubber, becsuse it is seperated from the floor. I know other people who drop the weight after they bring the weight up.

Dropping from the top is the quarter squat of deadlifting

Set it down controlled don’t take your hands off it
It’s fine if it makes noise

Almost nobody actually controls the eccentric as the images of such an action might conjure up in one's head. You drop the fucking weight with your hands around the bar so that the shit doesn't violently spaz out when it hits the ground.

There's literally no working difference between dropping it out of your hands from the top and dropping it in your hands from the top in terms of workload. The latter is just safer. That's it.

i fucking love brett. great interviewer, great radio voice, strong af. 10/10 cool dude

what are your goals?

honestly? do the whole movement. Stop being a bitch.

came here to post this
competitive runners/cyclers drop the bar to build strength with minimal mass increase

So the only bonus to dropping weight is you get less hypertrophy. Sick, gonna start dropping weight and telling anyone who tells me to stop to go fuck themselves I'm a goddamn Olympian.

How do i fix retarded round back issues on dead ? Thanks am newb

Don't be a hero, lose some of the weight. Keep your shoulders forward and your back straight. Don't ego lift. Smart lifters know how to get gains.

Literally illegal to drop it in competition
