Happy Friday, Frendos!

This morning at the gym — like many mornings — I see people attempting stiff legged deadlifts (SLD’s) when what they’re really doing is working hard to achieve lower back injury.

SLD’s done correctly are unbeatable for your hamstrings.

Although they’re not in this cycle’s workout, they’re in just about every workout I program.

Watching this morning’s multiple-train-wrecks of SLD’s inspired me to share a demo I made for a private client.

In this vid there’s an unconventional, NSFW cue that will really help you connect to your hamstrings in a way you haven’t before.

  • If you’re easily offended, don’t watch.

  • If you want a pair of banging getaway sticks, watch and take the cue to heart.

For those of you that don’t know, I do a lot of video review of movements with private clients to prevent injury and ensure the biggest bang for muscle growth and mobility.

Give it a shot and let me know how you go! This should make a huge difference in your hammies AND your flexibility.
