Band Deadlift
Stand on the band and pull the handles to the hips; resistance grows as you rise, so the lockout is the hardest part.
How to do it
Setup
Stand on the band, handles at the shins in a hinge, back flat.
Steps
- Drive up – hips and chest together.
- Finish tall against the band's peak.
- Hinge back down resisting the pull.
Common mistakes
Band too light at the top: double it or widen the stance; lockout should FIGHT. Rounding at the bottom: flat back each rep. Snap-down negatives: resist.
Breathing
Exhale driving up, inhale hinging down.
