How to do Deadlift
- Bar over mid-foot, grip just outside your legs, shins to the bar.
- Flatten your back, brace, and push the floor away.
- Stand to full lockout — hips and knees open, shoulders back.
- Return the bar under control. The floor is part of the rep, not a drop zone.
The soft lockout. Ending with bent hips and shrugged shoulders means the last 10% never happened.
