Top 5 reasons to start deadlifting
Coach Jen
👉 Bang for your buck
The Deadlift works more muscles than any other exercise, including the squat. The lift engages all of the major muscle groups.
👉 Better Posture
Deadlifting increases your core strength and adds to core stability, Deadlifting targets all major muscles associated with proper posture.
👉Prevent Injury
The Deadlift can help prevent injuries by increasing the strength of your muscles around tendons and ligaments. Supporting joints with strong muscles is incredibly important to preventing injury, especially in the hamstrings and lower back.
👉Burn baby burn
Strength exercises like the deadlift will burn more calories than traditional aerobic exercises, AND … you’ll increase production of good hormones! Win win!
👉 Form first
Nothing hurts my eyes more than a rounded back deadlift. Keep your knees soft and stick your butt way back. Your torso should be hinged down, back flat without rounding, keep your chest up, engage the glutes and send the hips forward to stand.
