Deadlift Form Check | Coaching for Sumo + Conventional Technique Session

1. I've definitely had my knees getting in the way of the bar. I'll have to keep those ques in mind the next time I deadlift!

2. sumo cheating joking queen lol love your content

3. Knowledge ❤
   Uf this video helped a lot

4. The knees!! That has been my biggest problem and why I also worry with heavy deadlifts due to bruises on my knees the day after exercise. I will definitely start recording myself to see and then just hips back ! Love that advice thank you Meg!!

5. Love this Meg!!

6. Vanessa love the tcu sweater

7. OMG OMG OMG hands down. The best deadlift video ever. This helped me fix exactly what I was experiencing with coming down in the movement.

8. You should put that she’s pregnant in the title, that’s amazing!

9. Vanessa just comes across like the sweetest nicest person! And it's so cool how she's lifting through her pregnancy! People say some weird shit to me about how lifting and running is dangerous, I can't imagine the comments pregnant women get 😂😂

10. It is wildly impactful to have someone this attuned to movement giving cues for lifts. I have had less knowledgable coaches give me cues to glide the bar down my legs when lowering out of a deadlift, so I did the same thing where I hinged both my knees and my hips on the descent and would bump my knees with the bar or dumb bells.THIS is why I'm now signed up for Stronger by the Day. Because your/your teams knowledge and experience shines through every demo, every guided workout, every IG story, every YT collab, all of it. So excited to finally be an official Strong Strong Friend 😀

11. THANK YOU for making this video Meg! I keep hurting my back doing deadlifts from form issues and have not been able to progress.

12. I’m TTC and really loving this series. The cues and connection breath reminders are helpful. I also appreciate clear guidelines on lifting during pregnancy which helps so much with mindset when you shift from RPE 8-10 to committing to stay strong at lower RPE.

13. Loved this!
    I will definitely keep this for baby #2; next year hopefully
    🤞🏾😬🤞🏾

14. This is so amazing. SOLD!!

15. I really enjoyed it ❤

16. The erg (rowing machine) really helped me understand the order of operations for deadlifts bc they are the same: push w legs, bring back the torso, relaxed arm follow through then reverse. No rowing over a barrel. I hate the erg. I love the erg.

17. Love the hip cue. I tell my athletes to have "quick hips" when they're bringing the bar down that way. Love your content, Meg

18. Question. It looks like her knees are going forward over the bar, on sumo. On sumo, shouldn't your shins be vertical? At least most videos I've seen seem to want vertical shins.

19. I've just been using dumbbells, haven't touched a bar yet since I'm not quite there yet in weight but I literally went "OH MY GOD" when I saw you show the difference in position at the beginning and end of the lift. It makes so much sense. Also this video FLEW right by, I love when I can stay engaged with something, thats how you know it's quality content 😉. Thanks!

20. This was SO helpful, especially with the breathing cues. Thank you!

21. This was so so helpful. I learnt the diaphragmatic breathing from watching your previous vides on that and have incorporated that throughout my workouts during pregnancy. This video just made it even more clearer in terms of lifting technique and breathing. Thanks a ton 🙏🙏

22. Meg, you are so knowledgable, kind, and professional. My favorite fitness influencer! Keep up the quality content!

23. Awesome video. Would love to see more coaching videos like this! Great discussion too

24. You are extraordinary Meg. Your explanation all the way through was great. The part when you explain about keeping the body strong throughout pregnancy so you can maintain strength and keep the body healthy.

25. Great video!

26. Nice idea for a video! Very useful!
    You should make it a series and cover RDLs, squats, rows, etc.

27. Please do more of these videos! I love the tips. I learned a lot from this ❤

28. Loved this video Meg! I learn so much from you!

29. It's so funny and understandable how hard it is to actually take the tips/advice on board in the moment. I remember my PTs training me and I just couldn't get it at the time. Now I'm like oh yeaaahhh, this is how my body is supposed to move, but that's only because I've been doing it for so long now. It's all about practice, muscle memory, and time.

30. I love these videos, whenever I have friends interested in lifting and ask for advice I always send them or tell them to watch Videos by Meg!!!

31. I definitely have this lifter's problem of having my knees in the way. This was really helpful and I'd love to see more. I feel like the bar hits my shins pretty often.

32. Love this!! ❤️

33. Thank you for this video!! It's really helpful

34. Loved this video! And ultra relatable to me currently as I am myself 17ish weeks pregnant! I know not all can relate to pregnancy specific training vids, but would love to see more like this sprinkled in! 😊

35. love from dubai ………………….wish you be my guest here

36. My boy is the sweetest, gentlest kid. His sister is… tough. Amazing, but so much more challenging to parent. Don’t fear boys, I say. 🥰

37. Where can I sign myself up to be coached by Meg?🙋🏻‍♀️love you girl!!!

38. I love your videos Meg! They’re so informative and always so helpful!! You’re my ALL TIME lifter 💪🏼

39. I learned so much in this video. I didn't understand the breathe work, pelvic floor contraction until this video!

40. Love this – I also roll the bar down my legs in conventional DL, so will try this out!

41. Holy shit the breath cues on this changed my deadlift! I watched this last night and deadlifted today and finally was able to raise my deadlift training max after monthssss of being stuck

42. I found that if you put your hands out near where the weight sits you will get good results when I started training like this I was surprised at the results I was married

43. Almost didn’t watch because of prenatal in title. Realize this applies same to all. @9:35 start/end = 💡 💡! ! Can’t wait for next week dl to apply.
