Top Cues for Deadlifts
[1] By engaging the lats via the "squeeze the orange" cue you will keep the barbell closer to the body during the entire lift, improving your mechanical efficiency.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
[2] I most frequently cue to keep the chest up when athletes begin the deadlift by shooting their hips up too fast resulting in less leg drive moving the barbell off the ground.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
[3] Cueing to push the hips back encourages the athlete to perform a better hinge movement and load the hips.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
[4] Push the floor away emphasizes the importance of getting a strong leg drive to initiate the lift. Too often we think of the deadlift as a pulling exercise and forgot about the leg's role in moving the barbell.⁠⠀
