Gender:  |  squat VS deadlift what benefits, if any do squats have over deadlift asuming someone only does one of the lifts with perfect form. ie: i hate squats, all the pressure on my shoulders. however i love deadlift becasue of the amount of weight i can push compared to many of the people around me. |

Gender: | Gday HS, Have you tried the Low Bar Squat?, this takes the weight off your shoulders and makes it safer to handle heavy weights. In a deep Squat the Hamstrings are fully stretched, so the leg muscles work over a full range of motion. Deadlifts are far more taxing on the body because of the greater weights one can use. I know with my program I wouldnt do more than 1 heavy set of Deadlifts per week. Marv. |
