But it shouldn't be confused with a regular 'powerlift style' deadlift of course Maybe it’s good to add that olympic weightlifters usually start deadlifts with their hips in a lower position to activate quadriceps more.

This stops you from rounding your back which might lead to a slipped disc on heavier weights. You must also remember to take a deep breath and HOLD as you lift.

It really irritates me when people say that dead lifting is like squatting. The reality is that a squat is just that, a squat... where a dead lift is a "bending pattern" that forces the dead lifter to displace their center of gravity to the FRONT of their base of support (not over it like the squat).You've inspired me to create a video about this, I'll tag you on the post later today or tomorrow.Keep up the awesome work man!-Elliott Hulse Mahdi,
