How to Do

How to Do Deadlift with a Deficit

The deadlift with a deficit should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.

If any pain is experienced, immediately stop the deadlift with a deficit.

Beginning

Beginning Deadlift with a Deficit

1. You can set up by standing on a 1 or 2 inch mat, elongating your legs artificially.

2. The mat should not be placed so high that your hips are higher than your shoulders.

Movement

Deadlift with a Deficit Movement

1, Stand one inch away from the barbell with your shins (directly over the middle of the foot).

2. Lean over with your legs straight and grab a grip just outside your legs.

3. Bring your shins forward until they make contact with the bar.

4. Squeeze your chest up to activate the muscles in your low back.

5. The bar should be dragged up your legs.

"You Can't Outrun a Bad Diet"

90% of obesity is driven by diet, not lack of movement. Your body has a "Metabolic Thermostat." When you exercise more, it burns less energy elsewhere to keep you stable.
