Deadlift Machines

[tcoy777]

Is it ok to use the Deadlift machine at the gym or should I not use it ? I was thinking until I got my form down correctly it might be a good idea. I did them on Wed. and it was the first time I did them. I did not use a ton of weight, but my back was a bit sore the next day. So I may be doing them a bit wrong.

Use a bar. Set it at the right height and use it empty until you're sure of your form. Good habits now will save your back later.

You'll not learn form from a machine. Use the bar.

Thanks for the responses. That is what I thought but just wanted to get some others feelings. Thanks.
