High hips for a stronger deadlift

Lil John made it cool to get low but his deadlift is probably shit 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m goin to need you stay high. At least your hips. One of the most common deadlift mistakes in either stance is sitting too low to keep the chest vertical. Well we want some room to play there and slightly higher hips is better leverage. Check your hip higher and wether you can flex or extend your T-spine. If you can’t your too low. Fix your starting position and most of your lockout problems disappear as well.
Share this yo your story or I’ll tell your kids about tye monster that lives under their bed and you sit get any sleep for weeks! 🧟‍♂️ save it too because there’s now a $10 finder fee for non clients

Demonstrating while speaking doing 220kg is absolutely ridiculous. Thanks Trevor, great video!

[@user-dr1ye2ek4t]

Thank you. As people share it, the channel will grow

[@catedoge3206]

not all of us have orangutan deadlift specialist arms T.T

[@GoodByeSkyHarborLive]

Which one will involve more lats?

[@rofoltofol]

I would think having hips higher would activate lats more, as it activates the back more in general than compared to the emphasis on the quads and hips from lower hip position

[@marshallrichardson3207]

Whether I’m pulling conventional or sumo (I alternate them every back workout), I try it start with my hips half way between my shoulders and my knees, as seen in a mirror in front of me. This splits the load between my back and my legs pretty evenly.

[@kalebkross]

Lumbar extension should be what gets your torso upright not thoracic extension. The muscles of your upper back should be isometrically holding to prevent spinal flexion. Some good points here for sure though!

[@jaffestrength]

Bio mechanically that incorrect and inhibits hip extension but shortening the hip flexors. You can keep rigidity of the spine but having a strong enough brace and nuetral pelvis position.

[@spencerc32]

This explanation is a great example to why sumo is far inferior to conventional. You're talking about using less quads, more back to add numbers to your "deadlift". Deadlift is supposed to work a bunch of muscles. To have a strong conventional deadlift you need it all. It's not a choice of which muscles to prioritize. It really highlights the lifters priorities and motivations regarding the lifts.

Say no to sumo

[@gtxtesting6143]

I bet you didnt lift even 200kg on everything

And this is no normal deadlift but a sumo deadlift

[@MeTooMan]

I’m just kidding around by the way. Both are legit.

Sorry bro, sumo and wearing that hat…no thx

[@Klepzeiker1984]

This is not a deadlift

Cry about it

[@cyclobenchaprine]

@@Klepzeiker1984 why would you have any idea what a deadlift is?

[@-cgk-.]

It’s a variation, same as there are multiple variations of squats

[@qfina]

Sumo is irrelevant anyway
