spinoff thread: Do you deadlift?

BRgetthenet does

No but I do raise the dead.

Its more about form than weights. I know people that do 6 plates total and their form is horrible. They always complain about their lower backs hurting for a week afterwards.

Good overall workout, but if you're new to it, you gotta accept the fact being "macho" about it can actually screw you over.

Nope. Not interested in packing on mass, just want to stay in shape. In my late 30s and mainly do bodyweight stuff and Dumbbells.

I deadlift but stop about half way down. I read that this was best technique in a magazine

Yes. Don't go heavy, not worth it - I try to focus on the form.

I deadlifts, do high pulls, good mornings, cleans, kb swings, etc.
