Barbell Deadlift From Blocks
- 1 - Set up blocks or a rack at the desired height (typically just below or at knee level) and place a loaded barbell on top of them.
- 2 - Stand with your feet hip-width apart, with the barbell positioned over your mid-foot.
- 3 - Hinge at the hips and bend your knees to grip the bar just outside your legs using a double overhand or mixed grip.
- 4 - Take a deep breath, brace your core, retract your shoulder blades, and create tension throughout your entire body before initiating the lift.
- 5 - Drive through your heels and extend your hips and knees simultaneously to lift the bar off the blocks, keeping the bar close to your body.
- 6 - Stand fully upright with your hips locked out, shoulders back, and glutes squeezed at the top of the movement.
- 7 - Hinge at the hips and bend your knees to lower the bar back onto the blocks in a controlled manner and reset before the next repetition.
