What's up, guys? Jeff Cavaliere, ATHLEANX.COM.

An ATHLEAN XPRESS Tip for you I think you're going to find helpful if you are Deadlifting.

Adverbs of degree

Deadlifts can be a complex movement because it's definitely a complicated movement because

it requires a lot of different joints to work in sync with each other.

Guys will always ask me, 'How much contribution is it from the hips and how much contribution

There's a very easy way, I feel, to sort of master that and make sure that you're getting

the right amounts and the proper amounts in each and every rep that you do.

I have an empty bar here, and then I'll demonstrate on a full bar. You go and you sit your hips

back as if you're into an RDL, like a stiff-legged RDL.

You sit your hips back. You sit your hips back. You sit your hips back. So here we haven't

All the contribution has been from the hips. As soon as our hands are at knee level here,

as soon as we're at knee level, now you can allow the knee to break which brings you straight

So, the bar will stay nice and close to your shins and again, now on the way back up, you're

You're using your legs. You're here. Remember I always say, the Deadlift is a push movement,

ok. It's a push movement. You've got to stabilize through your pulling muscles.

And you have to drive through at the top **as** they push through the ground exerting force

You drive it up and then from here, as soon as it gets to knee level again, now it's a

hip movement, ok, where you drive your hips up as you stand up to the top.

So, if we demonstrate that on a real bar. Bar goes over the laces, ok. I bend down this

way, ok. Hands down. Ass back. Hips back.

As soon as my hands get to my knees, then I just break my knees and you can see the

bar is right up against my shins in perfect position.

Once I'm here, I start by pushing through the ground, getting it up to knee level, ok.

Here, pushing through the ground, knee level and then drive the hips.

On the way back down, let the hips drop, let the hips drop, let the hips drop, right there.

Push and then come up. Let 'em drop, let 'em drop, let 'em drop. Bend the knees.

K. One more time. Push, drive 'em forward. Drop, drop, drop. Bend the knees.

So there you have it guys. There's a tip that you can start instituting the very next time

Now remember, the Deadlift, there's a lot of different variations. There's Sumo Deadlifts.

There's different types of grips that we can use.

There's different stances we can take. I prefer a narrow stance. Some guys prefer a wide stance

Others will do something called a Jefferson Deadlift where they actually straddle the

Lots of different variations. Lots of different goals. Some are looking for personal records
