An exercise I’ve been using a lot lately, both in my own training and with my students at , is the B stance deadlift.
Initially, we introduced it as a way to help those going through pregnancy keep the posterior chain strong, especially if other single leg variations caused any pelvic discomfort.
From there, it was a great opportunity to introduce it to the rest of our students.
It helps beginners understand and get the feel for a single leg deadlift without having to worry as much about balance and stability.
Our more advanced students have been able to progressively overload it much more easily.
It’s also just a great exercise that almost anyone can benefit from because you don’t need to go as heavy to really feel the target muscles working.
Like any exercise, it’s a skill that takes time and patience to get right. But it definitely sits near the top of my list when it comes to hinge movement patterns.
