AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5209 posts	I know this has probably been asked on here a hundred times, but was interested on which lift you guys prefer. I find it hard to seperate the two but if had to choose only one, I would probably stick with the deadlift.Maybe due to fact I'm stronger at it.

Hamstrings feel activated. Member 1107, 6964 posts SQ 220, BP 152.5, DL 252.5 625.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	Post Edited: 15.02.2013 @ 10:24 AM by JohnGym I much prefer Deadlifting. If I had the choice of a 300kg squat or 300kg Deadlift, I would choose Deadlift.

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250 635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq	paddymc1986 said:squats anyone can attempt a heavy deadlift but it take balls to do a heavy squat This. Both exercises are manly but the squat just edges the deadlift on man points.

I took about £4 out of Sooty's bottom Member 685, 8719 posts SQ 225, BP 150, DL 290 665.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	Deadlift for me.Squats annoy me, I just can't seem to find a groove and I always find myself questioning my depth. It's hard to feel instantly happy at the end of a lift whereas with deads the feeling of exultation at the top of a PB pull is one of the great pleasures of training.
