Staggered Stance Deadlift - Hex Bar
Is this for yourself or for a patient?
- HOW: Inside the hex bar, find your “power stance” with your feet staggered shoulder width apart. We will then stagger our foot by placing the toes of one foot in line with the middle of the other foot. The foot in the back will work slightly harder in this set up. 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. Keep your feet staggered.
