Episode 19: Date, Marry, Kill: Deadlifts
Phil and Tyler sit down to unpack the most controversial relationship in strength training: the deadlift. Is it a ride-or-die lift that deserves a long-term commitment, or is it more of a seasonal fling you outgrow over time?
In this episode, they talk through:
• How deadlifts fit into different seasons of training
• Why some people swear by them while others swap them out
• Coaching insights for when deadlifts might actually do more harm than good
• What other lifts might play the role of “marriage material” in a solid training plan
If you’ve ever questioned whether deadlifts are worth the hype—or just want to hear two coaches hash it out with nuance, humor, and experience—this one’s for you.
Plus, a lighthearted round of "Date, Marry, Kill" with other gym favorites like hip thrusts, back squats, and Bulgarian split squats.
