Reducing Back Pain In Deadlifts 👊🏼

Avoid these 4 common mistakes to help reduce lower back pain during your deadlifts 👇🏼
1. Rounding the spine:
Keep a nice neural spine and flat back by pulling the shoulders back, engaging the core and creating a straight line from the tailbone to the crown of the head.
2. Hyperextending at the top of the lift:
As you reach the top of the lift, stop once you are upright and squeeze the glutes. Avoid leaning back or pushing the hips too far forward.
3. Holding the weights too far away from the body:
Keep the dumbbells or barbell tucked in close to the body allowing them to “shave” up and down the shins and quads.
4. Straining the neck: Keep a neutral gaze forward without looking too far up, while at the same time avoid tucking the chin causing rounding in the spine.
