Deadlift - Hex Bar
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Inside the hex bar, find your “power stance” with your feet shoulder width apart. Grab the bar in the middle of each handle. Slightly bend your knees, chest up, and pull the bar up by pushing into the ground and squeezing your hips at the top.
- FEEL: You should feel your glutes, hamstrings, and low back working.
- COMPENSATION: Keep your back flat, don’t arch it. Control the weight going up and down.
