What are the most common deadlift mistakes? In today’s episode, we’ve compiled the deadlift mistakes we believe are holding people back, but are also easily correctable.
If you want to improve your deadlift instantly, correcting these mistakes will be the closest you’ll come to a quick fix.
We also discuss injury prevention and equipment like shoes, lifting straps, and chalk, and recommend proven training programs for the deadlift.
