Starting Strength Phase 2 & 3 EXPLAINED - What To Do When You Stall
Share
Starting Strength Coach Grant Broggi breaks down the second and third phases of the Starting Strength novice linear progression — what actually changes when you can no longer add weight to every lift.
The deadlift stalls first. It uses a huge amount of muscle and has a short kinetic chain, which makes it your strongest lift but also the first one you can't keep driving up three times a week. Grant explains why, and how to reduce heavy deadlift frequency so your squat and pull keep climbing.
