How do you build good quality depth in CBB nowadays? Good players want to play

Baylor saying RW was under contract but went to BYU is ridiculous.

If BYU gets Darrion Williams I will ask to be put into a medically induced coma.

And if they get Stokes as well, or will you already be in the coma?

I forgot OWGR long ago. Corrupt organization not interested in the truth.

HarlemCoug

Because they don’t grant points to a tour that doesn’t play real golf?

They are tied in with the tour to keep big names at the top. For example

Yes. Baylor reloaded, despite losing most of last year's roster. And ISU lost

I'll I have to do is post on twitter that he was under contract and then it is

The complaint stems from them having a contract in place with Wright, not

There aren't any

You are sadly mistaken if you think that.

LakeshowCougs

You are sadly mistaken if you don't think that

Cougs'16

10:17am

Which muscle or muscles are you trying to target with the deadlift?

LakeshowCougs

10:19am

Vertical jump. Squats, deadlifts, and plyos are the best way to get that up

Cougs'16

10:21am

If you are a competitive athlete sure. If you’re average Joe who wants to jump

LakeshowCougs

10:28am

I like deadlifting because it's essentially a full body workout.

You're right, symptom is the cure. More deadlifts and you'll be right as rain

Bainge

10:11am

I’m in the camp that the risk/reward of deadlift isn’t worth it

whoneedscorners?

10:13am

I just lift lighter and with a belt and have zero issues.

CSoul

10:13am

Right, but it’s also taking time away from other exercises that are more

whoneedscorners?

10:17am

It's really hard to find a lift that is as good as deadlift especially if you want to only

CSoul

10:19am

Deadlifts aren’t a back exercise

LakeshowCougs

10:19am

It's categorized as a full-body compound lift and absolutely engages the back, specifically

CSoul

10:22am

Definitely a compound lift. The main focus of the lift isn’t the back. Yes it

LakeshowCougs

10:36am

This tells me you don't know that you're talking about

Cougs'16

10:25am

So this is where the bang for the buck conversation comes into play

whoneedscorners?

10:32am

All that tells me is you don’t know how to read. Main muscles that are targeted:

LakeshowCougs

10:39am

Erector spinae are in the back and strengthening those can help

Cougs'16

10:41am

So why aren't you doing reverse hypers instead?

whoneedscorners?

10:43am

Who says I'm not?

Cougs'16

10:46am

You're doing those instead of deadlifts?

whoneedscorners?

10:49am

I'm doing both.

Cougs'16

10:59am

You can hit the erector spinae doing bent over barbell rows & actually focus on

LakeshowCougs

10:45am

Obviously. But you said that deadlift is not a back exercise, then in

Cougs'16

Erector spinae is one of the many secondary muscles the deadlift uses. Hence

Not sure what you mean by more impactful

I've recently decided to stop doing deadlifts because of the risk/reward issue

What other lifts are more impactful or better? Curious.

For what specifically? Any muscles you're trying to focus on?

whoneedscorners?

10:36am

Disagree that hip thrusts are better for glutes

Cougs'16

10:51am

Lots of conflicting info on "stretch" and its relationship to hypertrophy

whoneedscorners?

11:06am

For my body to be used to being under load and for back/posterior chain, etc

Superkid

10:54am

The problem is, the issues that you described can go unseen

whoneedscorners?

11:08am

As full body compound lift, the deadlift is unbeatable

lagryffe

Do you lift with a belt? If not, you should. Don't listen to the guys who say not to.

CSoul

10:13am

I used to love deadlifts, but at 54 I've abandoned them

lagryffe

10:19am

That's fair. I've moved to only trap bar DLs which was working great until

10:24am

Once you hurt your back doing deadlifts you can never do them again

Beggar

10:25am

Look into the McKenzie method exercises

WorfoSAUR

10:28am

Sucks because the hex bar is easier on the back, especially for certain body types.

txblue

My wife swears by the hex/trap bar. I'm more likely to hurt my back with a hex
