SETUP: Step inside the trap bar. Your toes, knees and shoulders should create a straight vertical line as you set up to lift the bar. This ensures you’re not hunching forward or rounding your lower back.
REP: Lift the weight by tightening your grip of the handles, driving your feet into the ground, and pushing your hips forward.
TIP: Being inside the bar will mean using more quad power, and less lower back than a regular deadlift. This may mean a heavier weight on this exercise over time.
