Need to increase deadlift.....tips please

[kingc_79]

Something that will increase you deadlift, help you through a middle sticking point, and be nice and balanced for your back is a low chain suspended good morning. If you have access to a safety squat bar to perform those with, that's a great idea too, and just do them in your deadlift stance.

Another good move would be box pulls from the floor (standing on a 3-4 inch box). You could keep these lighter and concentrate on speed. Then, when you're just pulling regularly, the bar seems higher and you're also faster. For me, getting the bar off the floor is all about speed, and enough speed will pass you right through your sticking points.

Good luck, VG.

always count on spatts for some good advice...ever since i tried them i love the low chain suspended gm's kills the lower back.

I personally like swing throughs, a first cousin of pull through for increasing hip flexibility and power...I will make a post explaining them fully when my back is not broken...lol
