The smith machine deadlift builds strong hamstrings and glutes while teaching proper hip hinge movement. It's safer than free weight deadlifts for beginners.
1. Set the smith machine bar at mid-shin height and step close to it 2. Grab the bar with hands shoulder-width apart, keeping your back straight 3. Push your hips back and bend at the hips while keeping knees slightly bent 4. Drive through your heels and push hips forward to lift the bar up 5. Lower the smith machine deadlift slowly by pushing hips back again
• Keep the bar close to your body throughout the entire smith machine deadlift movement • Push your hips back first, don't just bend your knees like a squat • Keep your chest up and shoulders back the whole time • Drive through your heels, not your toes when lifting up
• Rounding your back instead of keeping it straight during the smith machine deadlift • Bending knees too much and turning it into a squat movement • Moving the bar away from your body during the smith machine deadlift motion
