How To Deadlift With Perfect Technique (Step By Step)

» How To Deadlift With Perfect Technique (Step By Step)



How to deadlift with perfect technique. Here are my 5 steps:

First: set your stance. Start with your shins about one inch from the barbell and your feet at hip width. For a sumo deadlift, you’ll take a wider stance but I’ll cover that separately. The bar should cross the middle of your foot. Point your toes slightly out.

Second: grab the bar. Set your hips back with nearly straight knees. Don’t make the common mistake of squatting down. A deadlift isn’t a squat. Grip the bar with your hands just outside your shins. An over/under grip, hook grip or strapped grip will keep the bar from slipping. Let your shins make contact with the bar – they should be pointed straight up.

Third: pull the slack out. Instead of ripping the bar, pull tension into the bar gradually.

Fourth: pull. Lift your chest up while thrusting your hips forward. Keep the bar in contact with your legs.

Fifth: lockout. Stand up straight and lift your chest up. Don’t shrug or squeeze your back at the top.

Lower the weight by setting your hips back and letting your knees bend. Keep the bar in tight so it lands back over the middle of your foot.

  14. As a beginner and amateur, it really helped me when the trainer suggested to think to "push the floor away", like it was a leg press, rather than "pull the barbell". Still struggling to get a decent weight but, I mean, Rome wasn't built in one day after all.

  15. Yeah buddy!

  16. I quit poplars 14 years ago when I realized how sugar concentrated they are 😅

  17. What is a barrrrrrrrrr?

  18. Idk if you watch Olympic lifters clean, they pull from basically parallel. My hamstrings are really flexible, so there’s almost no difference between my RDLs and your deadlifts. Maybe you can pull more weight like that but unless you’re a power lifter who cares no? I’d rather just pull from a safer position
