A few deadlift tips from @gemma_macpherson follow her for more tips and motivation Some tips on deadlifts: - keep your head and chest up - keep the bar close to your legs - dont hyperextend your lower back at the top - push your hips backwards when lowering - keep a natural curve in the lumbar spine - do not round your upper back, ever - keep your core tighter than you ever have before - keep your glutes tight to prevent your knees rolling inward - invest in a belt when going heavy! Im going lightweight here because Im not eating enough to support muscle growth therefore wont be able to recover well. In my off season, I focused a lot of my time on beating my personal bests with deadlifts. Its how I built my back I have today. My max to date is 225lbs for 4 reps. Next off season I plan to achieve 275lb. Not a huge jump but I dont plan to go crazy with my food intake.
