Trying to go
heavy on an assistance exercise is useless, if not outright dangerous, like trying to ramp up to 3 rep max on a
stiff -
legged deadlift or doing 100 lbs cable triceps pushdowns.
For
Stiff -
Legged Deadlifts only perform a «
heavy» day on the first training day of the week - on the other two days have «light» days for
Stiff -
Legged Deadlifts (again, using about 70 % of your «
heavy» day weights).
If you find you STILL can't get it, another trick I like to use is to do a set of
stiff - legged deadlifts right before squatting... not heavy, but just enough to «wake up» the hamstrings and get them activated so they're easier to feel in this squat movement (you could potentially even do a light set of leg curls if you also can't feel your hams during Stiff - Legged Deadlifts,
