How to perform the deadlift
- Stand with your feet hip-width apart and your shins almost touching a loaded barbell. Bend at your hips and knees, gripping the barbell with a slightly wider than shoulder-width grip. Keep your back straight and lift the barbell by extending your hips and knees. Fully extend your hips at the top and then lower the barbell back to the ground.
