Here’s an old video of @builtfjordtough doing some Bulgarian deadlifts. These are great for building the posterior chain without axial loading (spinal loading). Great for in season training when players are beat up, great for accessory work when training to get stronger, and great for preventing injury in the knees and low back. People have a hard time doing these sometimes. Make sure to keep your back flat and shoulders above the hips. Depending on the stimulus you are trying to create, you can choose to control the descent or drop it from the top. Great variation off of the split squat and one of the many exercises we utilize in Brute Body—which registration opens Monday!
