Default Deadlifting

Hi medium_sized

Deadlift is generally done they way ironworker described it. It is the easiest grip to use for many lifters out there.

One hand over the bar (pronated-palm facing backward) and one hand under the bar (supinated-palm facing forward).

Start deadlifting without wrist straps until you develop a stronger natural grip and stronger forearms and a stronger back.

Keep an eye on your form. Deadlifts are 'man-makers', but can cause you seroius damage if not done properly. Ask a regular just to watch your form for a while (great way to make friends and to get a training partner).

Happy training
