There’s nothing that makes me happier than watching women rip heavy weight off the floor. 💁🏻‍♀️😈🏋🏻‍♀️💪🏼🔥 . 1 mo ago I proposed to the Iron Body Garage Gang that they train to compete in the next @strongfirst Tactical Strength Challenge in April 2019. They were pumped! . So 3 wks ago we started to work on barbell deadlifts. For most of the ladies this was the first time that they had ever barbell deadlifted. . During the first session I taught them: . 1️⃣the difference between conventional & sumo stance; . 2️⃣helped them to choose their strongest deadlift stance; & . 3️⃣taught them how to “wedge”. . After 2 wks of practice, yesterday in wk 3 we tested their 1 rep max for the lift. . Before we got into lifting I taught them the power breath that we use in hardstyle kettlebell training. This breath helps the lifter to brace her core thru her breath & continue to breathe behind the brace thru the lift thereby creating intra-abdominal pressure that helps to protect the spine. . As we started lifting & the weights got heavier, I taught them how to use a mixed grip when they started to feel like they were losing their grip with a particular weight, but knew that they still had the strength to keep lifting. . 🙋🏽‍♀️Geri got over the anxiety she was having about barbell deadlifts, discovered that sumo stance was her optimal stance & deadlifted 175#. . 🙋🏼‍♀️Liz @erh023 learned technique that helped her to learn how to use her glutes & lower body to pull the weight & no longer feels it in her back & deadlifted 165#. . 👩🏻‍🎤Gena @nursegeeena was a bit under the weather today but still crushed 175# & I know that on a good day, she has way more in the tank. . 🙋‍♀️Lynn @lfmeadors went full on #beastmode & deadlifted 265#. We need to work on the hip finish at the top, which is common when weight gets heavy, but she attacked the mother f-in bar like Xena on deadlift day😈! . We will continue to dial in technique & mindset strategies so that come April these ladies will be lifting really heavy shit! Congrats ladies! I’m so proud of you! . #liftheavyshit #deadlift #deadlifts #ladieswholift #girlswholift #womenwholift #notafraidtolift #strongfirst #garagegang #garagegym
