Band Deadlift
Whole bodyCoach's Tips
Don't sit too low as if you're doing squats. Push your chest forward and your waist straight so that you don't bend. It's an essential workout to strengthen your back muscles!
How to Band Deadlift
Starting Position
1. Stand with your feet hip width apart and the band looped around your feet.
2. Bend your knees slightly and hinge forward from the hips, keeping your back flat.
3. Reach down and grasp the handles of the band firmly with your palms facing up.
Proper Form
1. As you exhale, drive through your heels and extend your hips and knees until you reach a standing position.
2. Keep your core engaged and your back flat throughout the movement.
3. At the top of the movement, your hips should be extended and your knees slightly bent.
Breathing Technique
1. Inhale as you lower the weight.
2. Exhale as you drive through your heels and extend your hips and knees.
Precautions
1. Make sure to keep your back flat and core engaged throughout the movement.
2. Do not allow your knees to go past your toes as you stand up.
3. Do not lock your knees at the top of the movement.
4. Do not use too heavy of a band. Start light and work your way up.
