Why Your Deadlift Sucks.....Remastered

This program was written in 2019. It was fantastic then, and it’s fantastic now. It’s the exact training that helped me build my deadlift to 800 pounds. There’s no theory in here — it’s what I actually ran, and it worked. If you follow it for nine weeks and survive it, your deadlift will get stronger. Period. Since then, I’ve lived another six years of lifting, coaching, rehabbing, competing, failing, learning, teaching, and rebuilding. I’ve picked up knowledge I didn’t have then from experience, from injury, from education, and from watching hundreds of athletes fight through their own deadlift problems. So what you’re holding now is the evolution of that original program. Same intent. Same backbone. Same movements that built the numbers. But written with more precision, more understanding, and more purpose. This isn’t just a “how to grind harder,” guide, but how to pull smarter, healthier, and more powerfully. The 2019 version proved the method. The 2025 version refines it. Use both.
