Instructions
Preparation
Stand with a shoulder width or narrower stance on shallow platform with feet flat beneath bar. Bend knees and bend over with lower back straight. Grasp barbell with a shoulder width overhand or mixed grip, shoulder width or slightly wider. Lift weight to standing position.
Execution
With knees straight, lower bar toward the top of the feet by bending hips. After hips can no longer flex, bend waist as bar approaches top of feet. Lift bar by extending waist and hip until standing upright. Pull shoulders back slightly if rounded. Repeat.
Comments
Begin with very light weight and add additional weight gradually to allow lower back adequate adaptation. Throughout lift keep arms and knees straight. Keep bar over top of feet, close to legs. Do not pause or bounce at bottom of lift. Do not lower weight beyond a mild stretch throughout hamstrings and low back. When finished with set, dismount by lowering weight with knees bent and low back straight. Full range of motion will vary from person to person. Those with less flexibility may not even need to stand on platform. See Dangerous Exercise Essay. Also see Straight Back Straight Leg Deadlift.Comment

Originally posted by irongirlNo, squats are done last. I train DC style so I know
Yes, I know they are. But don't they also say you shouldn't put SLDL on same day as squats? I can see if you're doing leg curls and squats, but doing SLDL and then squats. Maybe I should quit lifting because that too much for me.Comment
