I'm going to link it here LOL cos it really helped me with my deadlift technique

http://www.crossfit.com/journal....of.html

interesting thing is it differs somewhat from Dave Tate's articles but in the posts he says he has resolved this with a conversation with Tate - theo only problem is you have to phone him direct to find out what the resolution was!

Regardless following the recommendations in that article has improved my technique.

In fact, while we're at it

some articles on squats and bench which also helped me
Cheers

The thing I wanted to point out to Mark, but I couldn't because I'm not a member of that forum, is that he and Dave Tate have articles available on the internet that completely contradict each other in terms of deadlift technique.

I personally think that if they have clarified that between themselves they should disclose what that clarification is...otherwise how can they both stand behind their artickes unless they agreed to disagree?

Incidentally, didn't realise you were from the UK Lol, next time I'm in the South West I'll give you a holler and you can show me how to pull 500 pounds!

Cheers

Gotta get that 500 by the end of this year... &gt;:\

I haven't read Dave tate's perspective but I tend to go along with Mark's when he says that what Dave thinks he is doing during the lift may be a little different to what he is actually doing. It would take a very experienced observer to be able to figure this out and I feel that Mark is most likely that person.</div>

Although Tate is huge and undoubtedly knows what HE is doing, I would rather put my trust in Rippetoe.
