Engage the core and set the shoulders.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Keeping the back straight, bend your knees and hip to grab the handles. Core and shoulders engaged.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Extend hip, driving it forward. Keep the arms straight as you simultaneously lift the chest upwards, coming to a standing position. In this position, the core, glutes and shoulder blades should remain engaged.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Slowly return, keeping the back straight, and repeat for reps or time.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Training tip<\/strong> \u2013 if hamstring flexibility is limiting you, modify the movement by bending your knees more (like a squat). If you have good hamstring flexibility, you can perform a straighter leg deadlift \u2013 this will require greater core engagement, so ensure you set this at an appropriate level.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify\">WHY<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">The deadlift is a pivotal foundation movement that will build <strong>high-levels of strength<\/strong>. In a natural environment, this move allows us to safely pick up objects from the floor, carrying things, or practice overhead lifting (cleans, presses, snatches). From a rehabilitation perspective, the deadlift is a highly functional exercise to improve shoulder health, through reflexive stabilisation.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">The whole-body nature of this exercise will significantly raise the heart rate and <strong>impose a cardiovascular demand<\/strong>. As such, we recommend you start with 4-6 reps per set, before increasing volume. As you become proficient, progress to free-weighted deadlifts using dumbbells, kettlebells and eventually barbells.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Some athletic movements are dependent on powerful and robust hip extension. As such, the deadlift should be a regular inclusion in your skill-based and metabolic conditioning workouts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Kinesis Deadlift\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/193848988?h=34ac3ec0ee&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>OTHER EXERCISES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/tutorial-superfunctional-y\/\">TUTORIAL: SUPERFUNCTIONAL Y<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/evofitness.ch\/tutorial-suspended-squat\/\">TUTORIAL: SUSPENDED SQUAT<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHAT The Kinesis Deadlift is a cable variation of the classic deadlift movement.
