How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Attach matching bands securely from both ends of the bar to a deadlift platform so resistance increases evenly as the bar rises.
  2. 02Set the bar over your midfoot, take your deadlift grip, and brace your trunk before pulling.
  3. 03Drive through the floor and keep the bar close as the band tension increases.
  4. 04Extend your hips and knees to stand fully without overextending your lower back.
  5. 05Control the band-accelerated descent, return the bar level to the floor, and reset before the next repetition.
