Deadlift party in the hooouuuuuuse.0

Absolutely. One of my favorite exercises!
Hoping to rock out a set of 5 at 195 lbs tonight!0 -
Actually had a girl ask me about deadlifts as i was doing them yesterday.. and you know what, she was sexy!0

OP, your original "almost always sexy" gave me a giggle. Go in strong... just straight up sexy!

and yes I love them and I hate them but I do them religiously0 -
*Raises hand* Deadlifts rule!0
-
Every time I go to the gym and use the machines (which is all I was taught during the month of personal training I won) for my strength training, I stare longingly at the free weights.
One of these days, I will grow the (figurative) balls to go over there (my gym is full of college boy meat heads, but I need to get over it and do it anyway). When I do, be prepared for total awesomeness.
Until then, I'm just a sad little wannabe and am in platonic love with all of the women who lift heavy things.0 -
strong is HOT. and gals doing dead lifts are SEXY. no doubt.0
-
I used to - but I was NOT sexy. I did a lot of weight training when I was doing crew. Never has a guy told me my power cleans turned them on.0

I did kettlebell deadlifts....
I want someone to come to NJ and make sure I am doing it right!!!!!0 -

Hey all,
I'm really interested in starting to do weights at the gym rater than just cardio, I'm not too sure how to get into it though... I'm not too good with reading books on subjects, I'd much rather be physically shown as I don't want to hurt myself etc... Do you think if I was to ask someone who worked at the gym they would show me? How did you all get into it?
Thanks

Do it! I work out in a college gym too. Those boys RARELY dead lift or squat. I just started the Strong Lifts 5x5 and really like it. It's a good simple program.0 -

They might charge you. Youtube is actually a great resource.0 -

yes, hire a trainer. worth the dough.
there are also lots of videos on youtube-- i like mark rippetoe vids. others here really like bodybuilding.com
if you read new rules of lifting, it's not very "booky". ie, not too much critical text. the tables and pics are the focus. give it a try.0 -
i do and love it0

Yes, ask someone who works at the gym if they can show you around the free weights etc or better yet, get a PT for 1 session if you really don't have a clue.
If they don't know much about it, and you don't have PTs there, then just ask somebody in the gym who looks like they know what they are doing, maybe somebody you see there a lot. Most people would be glad to help0 -
Great thanks, I'll look into the you tube videos. Might even try and get the courage to ask another gym member sometime... we'll see.0
