Barbell deadlift

KEY COACHING POINTS:

  • Shoulder blades pinned back

  • Keep the bar close to your body

  • Core braced and spine neutral

  • Whilst maintaining a neutral spine, drive up by pressing the ground away from you then squeezing your glutes into the bar (don't hyperextend the lower back at the top)

  • Slowly control the movement back down by driving your hips back(hinge at the hips) and slightly squatting

  • Once the weight is dead to the ground you can repeat
