In today's video I'm responding to the recent Jeff Cavaliere deadlift video ("How to Get Big and Strong - JUST DO THIS!") where he shows himself performing a real lift of 425 pounds for a one rep max. It seems reasonable to assume that this upload is a subtle response to the whole Athlean X "fake weights" controversy that popped up last month. Just browse the comments section of this latest Athlean X deadlift video and you'll find an endless stream of his supporters applauding him for "silencing the haters" and demonstrating once and for all how strong he really is. Unfortunately, all it takes is a simple breakdown to see that this video actually does the opposite. All it really does is further cement that fact that all the Jeff Cavaliere fake weights videos were correct and that he lied to his audience about how much he could lift. In the original Athlean X deadlift video with the fake plates ("How Heavy Should You Lift to Get Big - HOW MUCH WEIGHT!"), he lifts 495 pounds for 2 touch and go reps without a belt and without even putting forth a maximum effort. This would place his one rep max well above 530 pounds or so. In the latest video, Jeff Cavaliere deadlifts 425 pounds for a single all out rep. In other words, he lifts roughly 100 pounds less than the original fake plates video when all factors are equated. Not only that, but his deadlift form is atrocious. His lower back is completely rounded over and he performs the lift in the exact opposite way that he typically advises. Just look up any Athlean X deadlift form video and it's clear that he went against his own advice simply to try and impress his audience. At the end of the day, this latest Jeff Cavaliere deadlift video only makes the whole situation look worse, not to mention that it's flat out dangerous to promote this type of deadlift form to his very large audience.
