Split Stance Deadlifts can be super uncomfortable for many when it comes to the lower back! The problem? Taking your split stance far back puts less of the load onto your hamstrings and glutes and more into your lower back! The fix? Simply bring your back leg just a couple inches behind the front leg - rather than a big step back! Try this and you’ll feel it more where you should and less where you shouldn’t! 💪 Now, do it!
