    What taxes you more?

    Squats or deads?

    I find deadlifting raises my heartrate and gets me sweating a hell of alot faster than squatting.

    I find that when it comes to higher repetitions squats are harder because my core gets raped as a result of having that bar on my back. When it comes to really heavy lifting, I feel more drained neurally from deadlifts. Even so, both are great and beat the shit out of me.

    Couldn't agree more. Heavy deads take more out of me than heavy squats (like 3 or 4 rep sets) but 20 rep squats get me breathing way more than 20 rep deads. Not than I do them much.
    What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

    They both kick my ass, but deadlifts get me closer to puking a hell of a lot faster than squats. After doing a set of squats, I can just walk around and shake off the pain until my next set. On deadlifts, I have to sit down after each set to collect myself.

    Squats make my legs shake, but deadlifts dont really do alot for me. I feel some tightness in the lower back but thats it.

    This is a very good question. While deadlifts are by far my favorite over squats, I'd say deadlifts are harder for me. I think it's mostly mental at this point because I've lost some strength due to losing weight, but deadlifting is just a huge mental block for me at times; this doesn't seem to happen to me with squats anymore; I would much rather be able to increase my deadlift and ATG bottom load-bearing pause squat than anything else, though.

    Squats because the movement takes me longer. I love deadlifts but have a love/ hate relationship with squats- kinda like Foreman has with BigDyl

    Squats.

    If deadlifts go bad you can just drop the weight.

    If squats go bad, your gonna crumple and probably die.

    Squats make me feel alot more tired right after doing them than deadlifts. However, after deadlifts I carries over more throughout the day and into the next.
