Deadlift Warm Up (VIDEO)
Activation/Primer
3 Sets
10 good mornings
5/5 Single Leg RDL
-This is week three of our strength cycle using "Back Off" sets.
-A Back Off set is your final set in which you will take off some of the weight to perform a higher volume set.
Ex.
300lbs x 5
315lbs x 4
335lbs x 3
365lbs x 3
375lbs x 3
Then your back off set would be your final weight subtraction 20% for 6-8 reps. (20% of 375 = 75) so Back off set would be (375-75= 300lbs).
Focus Points:
-Deep inhale and create tension before lifting the weight.
-Quality setup for each rep.
-Keep the weight as close to the body on the way up as well as on the way down.
-Use a double overhand grip for as long as possible.
