I, too, have issues with high rep deads even with a trap bar. I get it in my right lower back. I have done well with the TB approach of the 1 set a week, and even with Dan John’s simply working up to a heavy double and calling it a day for DL.
Yeah @antiquity mate, god knows what was going through my head.
The pursuit of gains comes at the expense of intellectual capacity

I like the look of that. Think I’ll give it a try after I switch to Black.
I hope your back gets back online soon! In the meantime, I agree with the others - it’s prudent to avoid high-rep deadlifts and place safety first with barbell lifts, especially those involving the lower back.
Ya’ll are killing me here…
I could see someone losing tension/bracing on high rep TBDL. It would be easy to let up just a bit during the last few inches of the eccentric and then yank on the concentric.
But like you said, self destruction and all that.
It can be lost anywhere at any time in my experience. I tend to get hurt me rebreathing at the top than during any rep.
No mate
You’re killing us by raising the bar to insane levels and maniacs like me trying to keep up

This fucking destroyed me
@antiquity @kleinhound have yous tried this bastard of a session?
It’s filthy as fuck
What torture device did you use?
Negative but definitely have considered it. I think it would be brutal on a rower and ridiculous on an assault bike
Nope, haven’t tried it. Sounds intense, though. 2 minutes crawls by when you’re pushing on the bike.
What’s this cheeky wee number?
I’m not gonna write out the full workout as you need to buy the book which is a gold mine @jdm135 my man
Understood!
My legs burn a little just thinking about this. Is the rest at least 100% rest - like you stop pedaling altogether and perhaps lie on the floor?
