Trouble with deadlifts
Hi.
Just started doing deadlifts (never done 'em before), got some tips from a mate. Feels good but when I do it I have a hard time getting the bar above my knees, from there it's no problem. I do full squats and have a wide stance, I think I have the techniques okay (for a beginner) but it is just up to the knees it's hard.
Any help would be good, thanks!

i still have my very first workout draft saved in a text file and i remember Carnal giving these simple tips:
stay on heels, keeping your weight back, and pulling backwards

I think I'm doing that but I'll make extra sure next time and we'll see how it goes.
Thanks!

It's supposed to be hard. If you can't maintain good form, then use less weight.

Your shins feel it when you're pulling back, that's for sure! My shins are all bruised.

For me at least, when I was squating it the bar was farther away from my legs, when I pull back the bar is closer to, if not completely touching my legs cause you actually lean back a little. |
