>Natural
Me picking up a barbell is natural
The barbell was made from things found in nature, by natural beings (humans)

Following your definition you shouldn't use rings, dip belts, discs, ankle weights or perfectly straight metal bars, as these aren't found in "nature"

You don't deadlift or squat rocks in nature. You pull yourself up trees and ledges and dip yourself down off them though, you also walk uphill.
Nice try acting smart, though.

I do. Shut the fuck up you weak ass tree monkey or I'll bend you over backwards and fling you over the nearest river like a frisbee (which is basically just a really flat rock).

i hate defending these stupid discussions but you use two ppl to lift anything remotely heavy or tools. no business wants to pay some retardo strongman to injure themselves or others and sue. outside of work what are you doing where you regularly need to squat deadlift hundreds of lbs? gotta carry your fat gf around the house?

How does this workout mimic carrying a boar or a deer for miles to bring it to the village? Possible ut's hanged to the pole and carried by two people.
Or how does it mimic lifting heavy logs to build a house?

Many ancient cultures have "lifting stones" which tested the strongest men and in some cultures determined your social standing or pay for manual labour.

While barbells are more modern, people have been lifting heavy things for thousands of years.

Barbells are a bit easier to progressively overload than some big rocks

The whole point is being able to deadlift 100kg comfortably so you don't get a sore back or injure yourself trying to pick up a 40kg box.

This
How would two men figure out who is the strongest before gyms were invented? They'd find a heavy rock (the densest material available) and challenge the other to lift it. That is strength at it's most fundamental level: who can lift a heavier object off the floor?
Cultures all around the world have stonelifting competitions to determine who is strongest, namely: Iceland, Scotland, Ireland, England, Wales, Japan, Mongolia, Basque Country, Hawaii, Sweden, Denmark, and probably many more that simply weren't documented because we've been doing this shit since before writing was invented. And mind you, these were not light stones! Many of them go north of 400lbs, and 400lbs of rock is a hell of a lot harder to lift than 400lbs on a barbell. Many modern strongmen struggle to lift these stones that some ancient men were able to. Iceland would use these stones to determine your pay on fishing boats. Why? Because your strength at lifting things makes you a more useful person. Rippetoe was right.
We're not monkeys anymore. We developed beyond that as humans because we are the only species to manipulate our environments to suit our needs rather than merely participating in it like an idle observer. We'd rather lift the log to build a cabin or lift the rock to build the wall rather than swing around on a branch and freeze to death.
OP, you think your strength at deadlifting is useless because you were born in 2010 during a time where we have machines to do a lot of the heavy lifting, but take you back to any other point in history and your weakness would not only be detrimental to daily living, it would be shameful and it would make you less of a man.

nobody has ever posted a pick of gains from following this routine, I will keep doubting its effectiveness until it happens
