Car Deadlift

The Car Deadlift is a unique strongman exercise where the athlete lifts a car off the ground using a specially designed frame.

Instructions

• Begin by stepping into the frame connected to the car.
• Position your feet shoulder-width apart and grip the handles firmly.
• Keep your back straight and engage your core.
• Drive through your heels and extend your hips and knees to lift the car.
• Return the car to the ground in a controlled manner.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Rounding the back during the lift which can lead to injuries.
• Not engaging the core fully, leading to inefficient lifting mechanics.
• Using too much arm strength rather than leg and back power.
• Improper foot placement leading to poor balance.
