http://www.synergy-athletics.com/free... - The band will add tension at the lockout and force muscular bracing and tension on the eccentric portion of the exercise. Often it is hard to set up the band around both ends, so here is an easy variation with the sumo deadlift
Benefits of the Deadlift -Deadlifts work your back, legs & forearms / grip.
Back Strength. Your back stays straight while the weight of the bar tries to bend it. Keeping your back rigid builds back strength. Lower back should be tight and the upper back should be relaxed.
Leg Strength. Bringing your hips forward strengthen your hamstrings & glutes. Straightening your knees strengthen your quads. Squeeze at lock out but do not hyperextend
