Yes. Absolutely amazing. Time Under Tension. That's the key to GAINZ.
No, what is amazing is the properly executed stiff leg deadlift, that is, constant tension without releasing the bar at the end of the lift... You're supposed to hold onto the bar for the entire set and stretch your hamstrings with a pause at the bottom, constant tension. None of this letting go bs. Only a squarehead would let go of the actual bar on a stiff leg deadlift at the end of the rep, instead of pausing and spending time under tension with the hamstrings stretched to a limited degree. That makes all the difference.

I thoroughly enjoy your self depreciation when it comes to your achievements in your personal strength PR's.
The fact that someone didn't actually get strong but 'tried' really hard, makes them a great teacher, in your own words.
Similar to how a mute tries really hard to speak, and fails, but you know, he learnt a lot of useful shit along the way and is absolutely brimming with anecdotes, and would absolutely make a great speech pathologist, because of his absolute 'unique and special' experience, and absolute familiarity with failure, and the poor guy absolutely did try really hard after all. He gets his absolute best results when he tells people to just do absolutely the exact opposite of whatever it is he's doing.
Now that's absolutely amazing!
Also I just watched your video on stiff leg deadlifts...
I have just one question to ask.
Why is it that you do that awkward fidgeting with one of yer hands and fingers, near your hip? It looks like you are pretending to be a gunslinger in an old western movie, and are about to draw from your hip.
It absoultely amazingly strange. Suppose your name has been confined to texas for atleast 10 generations now, so maybe its inbuilt, like, genetically?
