The Most Simple Deadlift Program Ever

Achieving great new things with deadlifting? It’s actually quite simple. The harder you go, and the heavier you go, the more your body will grow. Fancy techniques? They’re for losers. 

With this - the most simple deadlift program ever - you only need to deadlift once a week, while taking a break every four weeks. 

What are you looking to gain here? If you stick to the program, I’d say around a 30 increase in 1RM. At least. Could be as high as 50 for some and even 90 pounds for others. 

Before we get into the program, let’s take a quick look at the biggest benefits of deadlifting: 

You’ll Burn More Fat

If you’re looking to burn more fat, dieting will work, and so will cardio exercise (especially combined with dieting). But when you throw deadlifts into the mixer too and combine them with resistance training, the fat will melt away.

Your Posture Will Improve

Because deadlifting boosts your core stability and strength and takes aim at your muscles that are responsible for how straight you stand, deadlifting will improve your posture. 

A good posture is not only great for things like walking around like a tough motherf*****r, it’s also great for your long-term health. 

 You’ll Work More Muscles

Did you know that deadlifting targets more muscles than any other workout regime? 

Yep, it even beats the squat hands down on this one. 

Increased Hormones 

Guys who want to be beasts need more growth hormone and testosterone in their body and deadlifting will help your body release more of these bad boys of the hormonal world. Muscle repair and growth will improve, too.
