Deadlifts are in our DNA. They are part of who we are and what we do. We love deadlifts at CFSF, and we do them well. The beautiful thing about the deadlift is it's function. It might be one of the most functional movements we see.

Great job everybody. Two *PR's- nice work Kathryn, and Sharon. Very good workout puppies. Form, consistency, intensity. Crawl, walk, run. You are all doing great. DO YOUR HOMEWORK!

The deadlift incorporates the entire body. Everything contributes. From the approach of the bar, through the set-up, and lift- consistency counts. We have to keep everything firing to maintain positioning. Relax anything and you've lost it.

There were a few things we focused on: not shooting the hips, maintaining a solid core, and heel drive were key. Good job on fine tuning the deads.

Big THANKS to Todd, and Eric for turning a lunchtime TARFU into a SNAFU, which is much easier to manage. If you rolled at lunch be sure to thank them next time you see them.
