What is the best deadlift warm up exercise? IT DEPENDS. There are SO MANY exercises you can choose from, but the exercises I'm sharing today are ones almost EVERYONE can benefit from. Doing these will help improve your deadlift movement quality and increase your potential to lift big weight.
These exercises include:
1) Deep goblet squat stretch for hip mobility
2) Hip Airplane for hip coordination and rotation stability
3) Bridges for priming glute strength/activation
4) Bird Dog for core stability

@samarthsingh8735 2 года назад

This stuff is REALLY good, I was beginning to have some pain after working out and I realised it was because I wasn’t warming up or priming myself up properly, and your routine takes it a step further to specifically address the errors that might come up during a dead lift and inb4s their ass. Thank you!

This worked so good I can’t believe it I also front squatted after my deadlifts and those delta so much better as well

@emiliospowerballer1441 4 года назад

Ive been powerlifting for 4 years now and i found that the best warm up before deadlifts is the whole workout first. i always start with rows, t bar rows and barbell rows as basic warm up exercises and leave the bench and deadlifts last. every time i did my deadlifts at the start i couldnt perform the rest of my workout efficiently but when i switched deadlifts in the end i executed them more efficiently. just before my deadlifts though i perform single leg reverse kettlebell lunges and that completely transformed my deadlifts. i read one of your books about squatting, i changed my foot placement and its all perfect now. youre the man.

@zlatigeorgiev 3 года назад

I liked the video, its good quality advice, love the hip airplain. But I do have a guess why ppl disliked it, as I had the same inclination at the end of watching - I saw the thumbnail with what looks like 180kg and I wanted to see what form he uses to do that. He did not use that weight tho. Thumbnail fake clickbait can lead to dislikes.

@lookmomitsthatboy1869 4 года назад

I used this routine pre deadlift I was so primed and ready crushed my lifts. “Why not warm up with deadlift?” That’s what I’d normally do, but there’s so many muscles in the legs you need to prime that assist the deadlift that just don’t wake the same with the dead’s. Especially if you lift heavy. Your cns wil start being taxed before you got the entire leg warm

@clairegaron2010 6 дней назад

These have been fantastic for me , especially the hip airplanes at 1.51 . Please do correct me if this is wrong , but I always use two upturned dumbbells / yoga blocks shoulder width apart on either side of my standing foot for balance . I lightly touch my right hand to right dumbbell when I turn left , then alternative hand when I turn right . Make sure to still press into the three corners of the standing foot . Don’t spill your weight into your hand / arm

@samp4986 4 года назад

@@SquatUniversity me too, my next push will be trying to hit 200kg from a recent of 193kg. But I don't want to push through with bad form. I'm noticing a lot of imperfections of my form, from watching your vids, which have been hindering me, ankle mobility for squats being one of them (it's slowly improving!) ! But I don't know how to fix an off-angle right foot (points out more, possible due to previous ankle injury) to my left one where my knees bend the same angle 🤷🏻‍♂️. Keep posting these vids!

Its maybe 7 min not more remember you do it once or twice and without rest because its not taking energy but your point is absolutely correct

@starmorpheus Год назад

Yeah the long term benefits of doing warmups will mean more time actually training in the future. Don’t wanna be the 50 year old that can barely walk because they didn’t treat their body with respect.

The one time I tried this sequence, I re-tweaked my L4-L5 on the actual deadlifts. The goblet squat very easily puts your hips in a posterior tilt.

@coltonbellamy2742 4 года назад

Man seeing all these comments 😂 this guys is a Physical therapist and he has talked to Olympic athletes first hand I think he knows what he is taking about and if you listen to his podcast it’s clear he knows what he is talking about lol not only that if your body doesn’t have a full range of motion it isn’t going to fire correctly and other muscles will compensate hence the mobility work and in his podcast he talked about athletes failing a lift because their coordination gives out(muscles failing to fire in the correct portion of the lift ) before the specific muscle being worked fails so workouts that improve coordination are really going to help your muscles fire in the correct pattern making the movement easier. Anyways I appreciate your content a lot I just found your podcast and I listen to it while I delivery pizza lol I’m a certified personal trainer and I’m trying to learn as much as I can before practicing on clients lol Nasm only goes over so much. Keep doing your thing man 🙏🏻

@gforcecache 4 года назад

Your four warm up exercises are yoga poses. Chair pose, warrior 3, bridge pose and bird dog. I guess I've been doing the right thing by doing my yoga class then immediately go into the weight room for my deadlifts. Seemed to be common sense to me. Mark Rippitoe of Starting Strength thinks yoga is useless.
