Deficit Deadlift
- 1 - Stand on a stable raised surface such as a weight plate or low platform with the barbell positioned over the midfoot.
- 2 - Place your feet about hip-width apart, hinge at the hips, and grip the bar just outside your legs.
- 3 - Brace your core, keep your chest up, pull your shoulders back and down, and maintain a neutral spine.
- 4 - Drive through your feet and extend your knees and hips together to lift the bar from the floor.
- 5 - Keep the bar close to your body as it passes your shins and thighs, avoiding any rounding of the lower back.
- 6 - Stand tall at the top with your hips fully extended, then lower the bar under control by hinging at the hips first.
- 7 - Reset your position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
