Hip Hinge....great video

Hey all!

I came across this article on the importance of the hip hinge when deadlifting and I find the information invaluable....thought some of you might benefit from it too! Getting this down properly can also help with the squat.

Seriously, I did the butt-to-wall thing like 8 times at work last night. I then discovered that I actually can do an "asian" squat! My balance isn't great, but I can do it. So that was an exciting moment. :happy:

I just pulled up the link...reading now. Can't see the vids from work, of course, because, you know, they block everything that's video in case of porn and all, but thank you for sharing this!!!

Yeah I totally tried the dowel thing yesterday and it really works well! I'm going to start doing it between sets I think, just to really master that positioning. It's funny how all it takes is one thing to make a lightbulb go off!

Awesome. No wonder my back hurts. My form stinks!

This is why I come here, so many people know so much more than me.

I'm pretty sure my husband might consider the girl photographed in short shorts in deadlift position to be porn
