Stay tuned for part 2 where Starting Strength coach Austin Baraki identifies some common deadlift mistakes.
In this video I explain the 5 step deadlift set-up that was popularized by Starting Strength.
1. Barbell over mid foot.
2. Place hands on barbell.
3. Bring shins to barbell.
4. Squeeze chest out/up.
5. Drag barbell up body.

Years goes by and this video is pure gold
why shouldnt you lower your hips? I thought that was an important part to protect your back
I liked this alan better
I moved the barbell..
Excellent coaching. "Do not move the bar bell"
I wonder why 4:29 so often gets advised, like, you need to really get down, like in a squat.
starts at 3:07.
How about with a trap bar???
A complex thing is just a few simple things together and we forget to break it up. Once we do, it's simple!!!
One of the best tutorial on deadlifting ever. Great tips.
I will always be amazed how many people try to let this type of thin scant facial hair grow old hillbilly long thinking it looks like a good beard
7 years later this is still my gold standard on the proper deadlift form. Thank you Alan
forgot to mention the core
Alan, you were a little aggressive and assertive when talking to us, I think a number of us were intimated. Please calm down sir.
The best tutorial dead lift I've ever come across. Thank you.
Also wingspan (arm length) affects your posture. Short arms results in higher hips and long arms in lower hips.
Alan to keep the back in proper form a posture belt may help. A simple band over the shoulder that keep the back in the right form. Take a look at these videos. The last one may be the best.

DO NOT MOVE THE BARBELL
This is the best basic deadlift video on the internet to this day.
Absolutely brilliant video with clear instructions. Thank you
Perfect supplement to Rip’s tutorial. Thank you.
you don't need to project so much. The mic can pick up your normal talking voice just fine.
so wait, when do I move the barbell?
@allan thrall Are there steps on how to properly lower the barbell?
Quality!!! Thanks man
i did this and followed mark rippetoe as well but my lower back got messed up pretty bad.i am all torso guy as mentioned in the video.the problem happened when i lowered the bar to the ground..what did i do wrong?i felt all the pressure in my lower back even though its a compound movement.
Learn how to deadlift from one of the worst deadlifters to ever grace the youtube strength scene, seems about right lol
4:30 this is a new awareness for me.
This video is incredible. This is my go-to video to share with folks looking to improve deadlift form. Thank you for the great content. Your channel is awesome.
No idea what I'm doing wrong. If I use the narrow stance my deadlift is weak and I frequently injure myself but if I use a shoulder wide stance I can pull heavy with no pain whatsoever.
