This deadlift focusses on hamstrings, by keeping the legs straight, stretching the hamstrings. Lock your legs, holding the bar in front of you resting on your hips. Bend down, hinging only at the hips. Keep the bar as close to your body as possible. As you get to the bottom, make sure you get a good stretch on the hamstrings. Keep your back straight, shoulder blades pinned back the whole time. At the top, squeeze your glutes and shoulders back.
