Coaches Corner: Deadlift Tips -Depending on your height will depend how wide take your stance. Your foot should be at a 30 to 45 degree angle to the bar. If it is open too much you will have a problem with your balance at the top. If your feet are too straight you will be unable to get your hips close enough to the bar and will not maximize your leverages
-One of the best sumo tips I can give it to keep the bar as close to you as possible. Letting the bar drift away from you simply makes a pull harder. The closer the bar is to your center of gravity the more control you will have over it and this is often looked over with sumo deadlifting. -Keep your knee directly over your ankle at the bottom position of your pull. If your knees aren’t over your ankles you aren’t creating the most power possible with your entire lower body.
-Learn to push your hips through as soon as the bar passes over your knees, this will make your range of motion much shorter and the entire deadlift much more efficient.
-Spread your knees as hard as possible while breaking the bar off the floor. WOD (workout of the day)
