Rickshaw Deadlift
A variation of the traditional deadlift using a rickshaw-style bar, focusing primarily on the lower back and hamstrings.
Instructions
- Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and position yourself in the center of the rickshaw bar.
- Grip the handles firmly and straighten your back.
- Lift the bar by driving through your heels, keeping the bar close to your body.
- Stand up straight by extending your hips and knees fully.
- Lower the bar back to the starting position with controlled motion.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Rounding of the back during the lift.
- Lifting with the arms instead of driving through the legs.
- Allowing knees to cave inwards.
- Raising hips too early.
