Skill: Today we are working to eliminate the dreaded Stripper Deadlift. In case you aren’t in the know, the Stripper Deadlift is when an athlete fails to pre-load tension on the bar before moving it and and straightens at the knee before the bar begins to move. To address this, we are working the four inch deadlift and slow-tempo deadlifts. Your coach will explain what this is and we will begin applying this work into our strength work next week. These DLs will be unscored as it is a SKILL and you will need to work at a light weight.
