No I'm not cambodian
My question is: If you do a deadlift from a set of boxes that allow the bar to be a bit higher,......say around knee level or there abouts,......does that make your back work harder because there is less leg drive?
For some reason I remember reading this somewhere but have never tried deads from boxes, I've never tried rack pulls either (don't own a rack lol).
I was thinking about making a set of adjustable wooden deadlift boxes. Just a few diff boxes that sorta sit on each other and interlock that allow 5cm or 10cm jumps etc so I can put a bit of a different spin on the deadlift every now and again.
What is the main reason for box pulls? or rack pulls? over a normal deadlift.
Thanks in advance as always guys.
