Stiff-Leg Deadlift

How to do it

1. Setup

   Brace the trunk, keep the load close and unlock the knees before pushing the hips back.

2. Execution

   Hinge until hamstring tension peaks, then drive the hips through without leaning backward.

3. Avoid

   Avoid rounding the back or turning the hinge into a squat.

4. Overload

   When you complete every prescribed set at the top of the rep range with clean form, increase the load by 2.5–5% next session.
