Deadlift Tweaks for Better Strength Gains
Alright, bro. Let’s talk deadlifts.
A deadlift's not just about brute force. It’s about precision. You can tug at weight all day, but if your form's trash, so are your gains.
First off, get your foundation right. Feet shoulder-width apart. Imagine you’re trying to split the ground with your toes. Engage that core like you’re bracing for a punch. Keeps your spine safe and the power flowing.
Next, grip. Overhand, underhand, or mixed... whatever suits you. Just make sure it’s firm.
Now, visualize this: you’re not pulling the bar up; you’re pushing the earth down. Use those legs. That’s leg drive, my friend.
Once you’ve got the bar moving, keep it close. Let it skim your shins. Keeps the bar path straight and your center of gravity tight.
Finish strong. As you lockout, don’t hyperextend. Just stand tall, shoulders back, and squeeze those glutes until you feel the burn.
Remember Philippians 4:13. You can do all things, but let’s do them right, yeah?
Hope this helps. God bless🫡
