How to perform it

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 01Step into the car-deadlift frame, center your feet beneath your hips, and take an even, secure grip on both handles.
  2. 02Set your hips at the height that lets you create leg drive, brace hard, and pull the slack from the frame before lifting.
  3. 03Push the ground away and extend your knees and hips together while keeping your chest up and arms straight.
  4. 04Reach the event-standard lockout with your knees and hips fully extended without excessive backward lean or hitching unless permitted.
  5. 05Wait for the down signal when applicable, then guide the frame back to the stops under control and reset your grip.
