The conventional deadlift is considered the king of all barbell lifts. Nothing else will make your entire body stronger then picking up a heavy loaded barbell from the floor. While easy to learn, a few tips can increase safety as well as your efficiency.
- Load your hamstrings before the pull
- Big Chest
- Hips Back
- Keep the bar as close to your body as you can the entire pull
- Do this by keeping your shins vertical/almost vertical and once the bar clears your knees, driving hips to the bar.
- Return to the ground the same way you picked it up.
