Targets: Lats, Lower back, Lower trap, Glutes, Hamstring

About

Don't sit too low as if you're doing squats. Push your chest forward and your waist straight so that you don't bend. It's an essential workout to strengthen your back muscles!

How to Band Deadlift

Starting Position

1. Stand shoulder-width apart and grab the band with both hands at shoulder width.

2. Keep your chest up and maintain tension in your back and lower body.

Proper Form

1. First, push your hips back while naturally bending your knees to go down.

2. When coming up, first straighten your knees while keeping your weight on the center of your feet and then bring your hips forward.

3. When you are fully upright, puff out your chest and contract your entire back.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when you lift your upper body, and inhale when you lower your upper body.

Precautions

1. Please keep your chest open so that your shoulders do not hunch forward.

2. Engage your core to prevent your lower back from rounding.
