Deadlift

A multi-joint exercise & concentric exercise, using a barbell with a pronated grip, bilateral.

Considered a glutes exercise, with the following muscle groups:

  • targeted: glutes and spinal erectors
  • secondary: hamstrings and quadriceps

Level: intermediate.

Not to be confused with stiff-leg deadlift.

It should be noted that, in a proper form, the workload should touch the floor.

A.k.a.: bilateral barbell deadlift
