Subject: 8 simple tips to help you deadlift more weight RIGHT NOW...

So yesterday, I mentioned a book called "Deadlift Dynamite", co-authored by two
of the best in the WORLD at building strength and power...Andy Bolton (1000 lb
deadlifter) and Pavel Tsatsouline.

Today, I wanted to give you some stuff you could actually put to work and USE...and
these are all taken directly from the book (I just selected some random tips).

I figured this way, you can actually see and experience what this info is all
about and get a glimpse of just how powerful a book with almost 300 PAGES
of this stuff could be for your strength.


1. When setting up for a deadlift, bend your legs only enough to reach down and grasp
the bar...no more. Remember, it's a deadlift, not a squat.

2. Let your arms hang straight down from the shoulders and take a mixed grip...no
wider. Setting your hands out wider when using near-maximal weights could lead to
bicep injury and greatly reduce the amount of weight you can lift.

3. Make sure your scapulae are directly over the bar when you start your pull.

4. Your abs and lats should be tight and braced as you pull the bar from the floor.
Most average lifters ‘get’ the concept of bracing the abs fairly quickly, but many
struggle with getting their lats tight. This tightness of the lats and abs is what
enables me to keep my lower back in a good position throughout the pull, while
also preventing any ‘strength leakages’.

To get the feeling of locking your lats, set-up in your regular deadlift stance… Now
have your training partner karate chop you in the lats 5 times. Providing you are alive,
you will soon learn to tense your lats! Once you understand how to tense your lats,
lock them at the start of the pull and keep them like that throughout.

5. DO NOT hyperextend the back at lockout...always the tell-tale sign of an inexperienced
puller or simply a masochist who enjoys hurting his or her lower back!

6. Your hips and back should lock out at the same time. Locking out your legs first
then finishing with your back can increase injury risk.

7. Strengthen your FEET. They're the first thing that gets flattened in a heavy deadlift
and a stronger, more solid foot will give you a stronger base to pull from. One-Legged
Deadlifts are a great way to build up the feet (as well as the glutes and hams).

8. One method to fix lower back rounding at the start of the lift is Deadlifting with "stops".

Perform 3-4 stops in a lift for 2-5sec at each of the following levels:
a. 1-2” (2-5cm) from platform
b. Slightly below knees
c. Slightly above knees
d. At the lockout


These tips even just taken one at a time can have a big impact on your deadlift....

Now imagine Andy taking you through his FULL setup technique, step-by-step, then
walking you through all the "strength leakage" points in your lift (feet, ankles, knees,
hips, lower back, thoracic, hands) so you can correct them and strengthen them, and
then Pavel taking you through correct breathing and abdominal bracing to maximize
the power you can generate.

This info isn't just for the elite powerlifter...this is for the person who wants
to lift a LOT more weight and do it SAFELY.

And I just have to say, it took me about an hour to write this email because every time
I pulled a tip out here, I ended up reading the book again for another 5 minutes. This
stuff is just awesome.

P.S. I liked this book so much that I offered them one of my own books, "Hybrid Training",
to use as a bonus for everybody who picks up a copy of theirs. No need to forward any
receipts...it'll be right there on the main download page!
