How to Barbell Staggered Deadlift

Starting Position

1. Stand with the barbell in front of your shins.

2. Place one foot slightly forward and the other foot back to create a staggered stance.

3. Slightly bend your knees and puff out your chest.

Proper Form

1. Push your hips back and bend your upper body to grab the barbell.

2. Shift your weight to the front foot and stand up by straightening your hips and knees.

3. Keep your upper body straight, then push your hips back again and slowly lower the barbell.

4. Switch the positions of your front and back feet and repeat the same movement.

Breathing Technique

Exhale when lifting the barbell and inhale when lowering it.

Precautions

1. Please maintain spinal neutrality to avoid bending your waist.

2. Keep your balance so that your weight does not excessively shift to the front foot.

3. It's more important to maintain balance than to greedily increase the weight.
