Also it's the slow negative portion that gets the hamstrings...

I, and everyone else who tries it, if a little out of condition in the hamstring department, struggle to walk for a few days after. It did fine for me as a multi tasking exercise anyway.

Did these yesterday. I now have big time hamstring, glute and erector DOMS.

I have hurt my lower back three times round backing deadlifts (not sldl). I've never been injured lifting with an arched lower back. All I can say is, to me , its an accident waiting to happen. On the other hand we all built differently and I am not a gifted deadlifter.

you should write a book about this stuff, i would wait for someone to buy it and borrow it of themGrin

I have the same experience as Drew2 with these but I'm willing to give them a proper go.

So straight legs, rounded back. I guess low weight and high frequency to begin with? I think you (Tom) mentioned you did that postinjury once.

I'd say 1 set of 5 touch and go and increase it, not like full on bounce the c**t, but controlled

with a set of 5 you ain't really gona snap some s**t i wouldn't of thought, maybe do it twice a week to start if it's real light

and i'd say slight bend in legs not locked straight

Did some of these today, ended up with 100kg for 3 triples but paused not touch n go, tried to round my back and went beltless.

Felt the hamstrings pretty strongly. Plan is to do them perhaps 2-3 times a week.

and how!!!!

Out of interest, I did 3 sets of these bad boys at the end of my last deload session of the week yesterday.

Just light (130kg I think) for 3 sets of 5, focusing on controlling the negative portion of the lift before a light touch then back up we go.

My hamstrings are destroyed this morning and my usual Sunday am uphill sled dragging session was loads of fun just now Grin.

I'll add these into the normal routine, but heed Toms words wisely - Take it easy on the first session Grin
