My Deadlift mantra v2.0

All humans should possess the ability to lift stuff from the floor, our survival depends on it.  If squats are the king of gym exercises, deadlifts are the queen. One thing to love about the deadlift is the fact that there is no way to cheat in this movement. There is certainly room to seriously hurt yourself if you don’t understand how to build tension and lift a weight safely. Generally speaking, if you are not strong enough to pick it up, it's not going budge.  I’m no deadlifting champion, but the tips I share here are some of the things I think about on deadlift day.
