Deadlifts

When doing a straight bar deadlift, as you’re pulling the bar up your shins, mentally picture yourself falling/shifting your weight backwards as you’re pulling up. This helps improve the leverage of the lift, using your bodyweight to help get the bar up. When you just pull straight up, you don’t get this advantage. And wear long socks or pants if you don’t want deadlifting “battle scars” up and down your shins because that bar should stay two inches from your legs.
