The Deadlift – The KING of all Lifts

The deadlift is a weight training exercise where one lifts a heavy object off the ground from a stabilized bent-over position. The deadlift works all of the major muscles of the body. Training this movement using a mix of high rep and low-rep training is a tremendous way to add strength to your back, shoulders, legs, forearms and biceps. Furthermore, the deadlift is the most effective exercise for building core strength. The deadlift is a very functional lift. We often squat down to pickobjects up: groceries, a laundry basket, furniture, or a child. It’s a lift you WILL use in the real world.
