HAMSTRINGS

Elevated Platform Deadlift

AdvancedBodyweight

A conventional deadlift performed on a raised platform so the bar starts lower relative to you, lengthening the pull. The added range increases the stretch and workload on the hamstrings, glutes, and the rest of the posterior chain. An advanced lift that requires strong technique and mobility to do safely.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Place the platform on the floor and set a loaded barbell along it.

  2. 2

    Stand on the platform with feet shoulder-width apart and squat down over the bar.

  3. 3

    Grip the bar with an overhand grip, hands wider than shoulder width.

  4. 4

    Brace your core, flatten your back, lift your chest, and roll the bar in to touch your shins.

  5. 5

    With the plates on either side of the platform and elbows outside your knees, drive through your legs and push your hips forward to stand.

  6. 6

    Pause at the top, then lower the bar under control back to the platform.
